My 2001 Ferrari 360 F1.

Salam all,
I have a '97 Maranello 550, but a couple of weeks ago a saw this 360 (F1) for sale & bought it.
It was imported by the dealer as a special order in 2001 & it has a factory challenge exhaust (very loud), a roll bar & the sport carbon fiber seats.
It needed some repairs, but what attracted me to buy it was the fact it had only 8K kilometers on the odometer.
Last weekend I took it for a test drive with my friend Adnaan (Modificata), and I think he agrees that it was an experience that will never be forgotten.
Now it is in the shop for some maintenance.
Here are some pics.
(The last one was taken while we were replacing the accessory belts in my friend's shop, access panel behind seats removed.)
Regards

Congrats again! I was wondering when you were going to put that up.

Guys as Majd mentioned it has a challenge (race track) exhaust. The car sounds amazing and im sure is quite illegal in the UK! Forget tubi, as nothing compares!

Awesome car and fantastic spec. Have fun with it Majd!

 

Majd,

Alif Ma'abrook....!

What a beautiful car.... I'm also looking for a 360....I hope I can find one as nice as yours...

Very, very nice....

Thanks Adnaan, I will be back in Jeddah this Saturday & was wondering if you are free to meet for some coffee & car talk.



Mike, thanks for your kind reply. I hope you will find one soon.
By the way, how much does a similar one cost in Kuwait these days?

 

Madj,

You can find them here for 16 to 19,000 Dinar, depending on the color, condition, and model year. I'm waiting for one in the 10-12,000 dinar range... occasionally they will pop up... but not often. Can you PM me what you paid for yours? Just curious.

Wayid Halwah , love the challenge seats, now that is rare

You're right, thats the going price for them, but the trouble is the mileage on most of them are high and its hard to find a one owner car that hasn't been abused, I think if one popped up you'd have to pay more for that.

I'm waiting for the 575s to fall below 20k , shouldn't be long now

Buying a local 360 is a problem in all GCC countries. People tend to import them from Japan now


Mabrook, it's gorgeous.

 

Congrats on your purchase. Ever thought of putting CS wheels on it?

 

Hi Mike, I sent you a PM.

Thanks Salman, hope you find the right 575 soon.

Thanks, It seems that all exotics in the GCC are going to the UAE. According to many friends, car brokers from eastern Europe are buying them in big quantities from there.

Thanks.
Actually it had the CS wheels, but the previous owner managed to break one. He sold the remaining wheels & installed this set. I will buy a used CS set if the price is right.


Regards to all.

 

+1!!!

 

I sold the 360 sometime ago and currently working on my '97 Maranello.
Thanks for all your replies.
Regards.
