Dave, Your salesman was probably trying to get you to buy some aftermarket mats. I have not found any that I really liked but here's the Keith Collins mats which are considered "designer" and high quality: http://www.artexture.com/ |

Oops...forgot to mention that yes they do offer the prancing horse as well as the Ferrari script. I chose the one that featured both in the design (as pictured on their website under "other available logos"). |

Dave... Sorry for the delayed response to your question (had the take the family out on the town). I chose the Lloyds Ultimats (Premium) Mats -- so I'm not familiar with the quality / logo / options for the Designer Mats. You might give them a call -- they were very helpful in the ordering department (during the normal store hours that is). |

Ack, after looking at your pics, which look exactly like mine, I ran outside to check. Sure enough, I do have the same mats you describe. Now I just have to figure out why the salesman told me I didn't have mats coming with the car. Thanks Viken. Dave |

Dave, Sounds like your car is missing the factory mats I have seen in every 360 so far. Both are carpet mats with rubber heel pads and two holes (in front of the seats) that go over short plastic tabs. I'm not sure if you can see them clearly but here's a picture of mine in the car: Passenger side: http://p-car.com/porsche//viken/360/360-07b.jpg Driver side: http://hobbystage.net/ferrari/vikenb/1002640335-000171.jpg I will take another picture tomorrow and e-mail it to you. |

Thanks Viken, you've answered a few 360 questions for me over the last 2 years Stock mats? From what I can tell, there are no front mats. The carpet in the "mat area" can be pulled up separately from the rest of the carpet in the car, but underneath is the floor pan, correct? I was thinking I'd get something to protect that carpet, as I know my shoes eventually tend to wear into the carpet, say right at the base of the accelerator. Make sense, or have I missed something?

Dave, Congratulations on the 360 but what's wrong with the stock mats? I don't find anything wrong with them. |

Eric, I notice they have Lloyds mats, as well as a "designer mat" which sounds more exclusive, at least in name? Did you compare the two and pick Lloyd as the better one? Logo-wise, I presume they have a prancing horse, and the "Ferrari" script logo available? Thanks, Dave |

Hello Dave... Just purchased a set of Lloyd mats for my 308 last month from www.autoseattle.com. They sent me a set of color samples first to compare with the interior carpet (since the online sample colors vary from monitor to monitor) so that I could choose the closest / correct color. They also sent a sample of all the various Ferrari embroidery logos that they offer (with dimensions too) to pick from. It took approximately two weeks to manufacture and ship, but the mats were first class in my opinion. You might want to give them a call and see if they offer mats for the 360 model. Just a word of caution, though -- these mats are custom made and custom fit for your particular vehicle and color/embroidery options; therefore, they are non-returnable so you'll want to make certain the order is correct the first time. |

Thanks Nick, I'll do some eBay searching... Dave |

Hi Dave, Try Lloyd mats. I think I saw Lloyd is selling the mats custom made for you, on Ebay a few days ago. Good luck. PS I have a set of them in a 911 and they look great. |

Anyone have a pointer to a nice set of floor mats for a 360? I finally got the car, and so far, that's the only thing I'm missing. Other than a race track, of course. Dave |
