    Alpintourer, the color looks great on a spider. Thanks for sharing, that picture captures another shade that the color shows in more direct light. It is a really bizarre color as it changes a lot and I get the impression that you either love it or hate it. It can't be captured accurately in pictures, yet at the same time it looks a lot like you see on the computer screen. I ended up loving everything else about my car and bought it sight unseen trusting that I'd be okay with the color when it arrived. I really didn't want a "Baby Blue Ferrari", which is what I think it can look like on a computer sometimes, and I was really happy when I saw it in person for the first time. It has totally grown on me and I truly love it now. The metallic gives the paint a pearl-like sheen in some lights and it can be a "sliver car" or a "blue car" depending on the lighting conditions.


    Bob, unfortunately I haven't made it to a Ferrari Club meeting in years but I have been meaning to get more active. I hate to say it... but sadly like most Ferraris mine spends the majority of the time freshly washed, under cover and on a battery tender.

    I love me the blues!!!

    This may be heresy to some, but I like the after market/non original wheels on the 360s. Some pics look like they have F430 wheels, an improvement in my eyes. The wheels are the only thing about 360 that I never warmed up to.

    To Dino, the Med Blue does have the red/black alcantera interior and I purchased it from Scottsdale Ferrari. So it was my car you saw there.

    The very first 360 i looked at while shopping around was a NART. I would have bought it on the spot if it hadn't had some issues. Simply beautiful!

    I think I have the only 360 spider in blue NART in the UK - or at least I haven't come across another one yet in 4+ years! Happy to be proven wrong though!

    That was a great looking car! If I didn't already have one, it would have been tough for me not to write the check!

    We have just purchased a Grigio Alloy 6 speed 360 Spider here in New Zealand. It is a NZ new car and I believe, the only Spider of this colour here. We did drive a similar coloured Modena last year. We both love the colour as it is different to our red 246. We are yet to get it home, but they will look great together. Another "bucket list" entry crossed off! Will post some pics when it arrives at home.

    The hood and bumper were peppered with rock chips from previous owners, even after removing the clear bra from the windshield forward. So I just got the car back from the body shop today and it's absolutely perfect. I'll leave the discussion about how good the clear films protect a car to another day (preview, a C minus). Anyway after a careful drive back home, she's as good as new...

    Gorgeous and unique CS!

    Love grigio alloy. One of those colors you have to see in a range of lighting to truly appreciate. Admittedly I'm partial.
