    that's a very interesting question!!

    I reckon most first time buyers would be tempted with the former, but, condition being the same, for me the latter is a no brainer.

    first time ferrari buyers want red.

    I've never liked grigio or any variation of that colour, on any car.
    I'd pick the red one.

    Id take the red one, of course. :D:D

    I love Grigio Silverstone (not sure which Grigio colour is on this 360 in question) on almost ALL Fcars, but probably not so much on the 360 Spider. :D:D

    Which is why I would take the red one. Especially if it was red/tan. :eek::eek:

    My argument is that the 2004 is a bette choice than the colour... but I am a big fan of that grigio silver or whatever the colour is called. I think it looks great. From memory the 2003+ updated spiders had some improvements?

    Interesting how the whole "red ferrari" thing comes out to play... I can't think of any other car that this has such a bearing.

    I'm not necessarily a fan of red ferrari's either, but it was the only other choice in the question you posed, and I happen to dislike red less than grigio.

    I just wouldn't choose a car in painted in a similar colour to the road ( silver grey - dark grey ).

    I would choose the 04, simply because it is NOT a spyder, but that is a personal choice that Im not keen on convertables

    I'd pass on the 360,IMO they are a very dated looking car and in the future will be an unloved model.
    stigma with that type car is?
    "owe he owns that because he can't afford a 430 ect

    When I first read this I thought red was spider, grigio was coupe and I would have gone red because I like open cars, but if they're both open I'd go grigio because I like the colour, it's different and presumably a better (since younger) car?

    later model in Grigio is a no brainer IMO.

    (however if its Grigio Alloy, it could be almost free and i wouldnt want it, thats a horrible colour)
