In 2001: Base price 360C: 139.360 euro Michelotto conversion: 202.237 euro Total: 341.597 euro ex works/taxes In todays market you can buy one for 280-300k Forecast: up or down in future?
Down. Way down Look at the past. 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s etc. Race care with no notable history like the 360-G were treated as used appliances. I remember being offered a pair of pristine GT3 Cups not too long ago for €75k. Cars are just tools. They are not family and they are not time.I believe that it was the recent instagram/facebook look-at-me mania that inspired the bubble in everything exotic.
It depends. Provenance is everything. So, the best cars have the best opportunity to appreciate. The N-GT/GT was one of the top competitors in its' day. It looks and sounds good, and it's fast. It's not impossibly expensive to operate. Spares are available. I'd say the longer-term prospects are good. BUT, there's the 430 and 458 out there, too, which may hold it back a bit, because EVERYONE wants the fastest gun at the track day. And, then there's the endless fettling with the classifications (GT3, GT2, GTE, etc.) so understanding the specs isn't always simple or straightforward. The bottom line is that even the 333SP didn't take off for some time after it was done racing. And, that was the last of the Prototype entrants. CW
None of the 360 NGT's were works cars... AF Corse did not race them ( they started with 430GT s) If a no race history NGT sells for 130-140k, why pay more than double for a car that did some racing but no Le Mans GT Class win or won a real major international championship like ALMS or ELMS in GT?
Maybe I'm biased as the owner of an ex. Scuderia Ecosse 360 N-GT but to my mind they are ridiculously undervalued. If we look at the other Ferrari / Michelotto "Customer Race Cars" from the same era and with similiar production numbers then the 360 stands out as the complete bargain at current pricing. Let's not forget this is the car that in 2002 alone won the World FIA N-GT Championship, the French N-GT Championship and the British N-GT Championship. It is the car that put Ferrari back on the map in terms of GT racing and whilst they weren't works racers in the true sense, teams such as Scuderia Ecosse had strong factory support, hence the slogan "Racing with Ferrari". Evo Magazine was at the debut race of the Maranello Concessionaires 360 GT's in the 2003 European N-GT Championship. The summary of their article after the race was " Maybe one day we will look back on the 360 GT with the same awe as we do the 250 GTO and SWB ". Maybe and maybe one day pricing will match....

I'm curious why only the GTC ? After all the only real difference between a GTC and an N-GT / GT is a slightly different aero pack homologated by the 360 Challenge Stradale and a slight uplift in output. All upgrades easily available to the earlier cars. In any case, it was the N-GT's that put Ferrari back on the map GT wise not the GTC.
Well I have both of them (yes, real ones) and must say I hardly notice any difference. Actually I love the N-GT some more but that is hard to justify. Prices are too low anyway....But a correct and complete engine overhaul set you back the price of a 360 challenge....The sound of a 360 N-GT/GTC however is unmistakably the best sound of any car on any track (perhaps only the 70's/80's/90's F1 V12's are better...). Unfortunately the tracks where you can use them is very limited due to sound restrictions. Even the most muffled exhaust is above 100dB.....(There are 3 supplied for them, open, straight with mufflers and a 3 muffler set....) Ciao Oscar
Ciao Oscar Congratulations on the cars and agree completely on the sound. "Putelli NGT" with the volume cranked up on YouTube is a favourite. In terms of engine, from memory the Michelotto recommended service interval is every 5k Km ? However that would be the case (and probably cost a lot more) for any of F40 LM, 333 SP etc. all of which are trading at multiples of ten on the 360 cars. Cheers, Paul
I agree that they're very under-priced. But, as I mentioned, there are 430s and 458s now available. And, the provenances and specs all get factored into the asking and final sales price. Based on the current asking prices, IMO, they're a steal. But, it could be argued that I'm also biased. CW
If you wait long enough almost everything will go up 360 is a touchy car with the 430 over it. Supply and demand. Sorry to say not much demand right now for 360 ch. I have better 10 year prospects then the 360
Neither the N-GT, GT nor GTC = 360C. BIG steps up. They may look alike, and that can hold them back a little, but they remain rare. CW
360 N-GT = 17 360 GT = 20 360 GTC = 10 Privateer Michelotto Conversions = 6 (VIN #'s available on Request) Total = 53
It also won the Grand-Am GT class championship in 2002 and 2003, setting a new record for consecutive race wins in '02, and continuing on into '03. It also brought Ferrari its first North American GT Manufacturer's Championship in 2003. All achieved under the "Scuderia Ferrari of Washington" banner. gp
This was our first win (Watkins Glen, '02). I'm the guy in red. p.s. - this car also finished second *overall* at Mont Tremblant - ahead of the most of the faster prototypes! (well, this car or the next one we got in '03 - I can't really remember right now.... But either way, a good notch in the belt for the tipo.) We also had one of the first and few Michelotto "customer" cars - not as successful as these factory cars.... Image Unavailable, Please Login
Nice. IIRC, this was driven by Cort Wagner and Brent Martini. That's when I started to watch Ferraris in GT racing. Before that it was only F1 and Challenge.
'02 was Cort Wagner and Bill Auberlen. In '03 Auberlen departed (apparently BMW was none too happy about Bill winning a championship in a Ferrari.... go figure. ) and Martini joined. gp
