Purchased my first Ferrari! 360 Spider

Hello Everyone! Finally located the car I have been lusting after for quite awhile.

2003 360 Spider Manual Tranny. 12k miles on the clock.

I have a Gallardo as well and a noticeable difference in driving characteristics from that. Substantially more comfortable and smoother ride. Lambo can feel a penny if you drove over it.

I'm located in Bend, Oregon and if you're anywhere in the area, Would love to get together as there aren't many other enthusiasts here.

Here are some pics:

Congrats.

Everything that is sought after for in a 360 is there (e.g. red, gated, convertible and more). I bet this cost a cut above other 360s in the market.

Very nice. Is this your first Ferrari? Why did it have to wait after the other car brands?

 

Congrats.

We have car twins!

And, please do not sell the car for less that $200K so that we can keep 360/red/stick/spider prices as inflated as possible!

 

He just had to work up to it. First a Lambo, then a Ford Pinto, a Chevy Vega, Toyota Prius,...

Absolutely awesome choice. Congratulations Jeronimo!

 

Very Nice! Congrats and enjoy!

 

This is hilarious. Market manipulation.

 

Makes complete sense. lol!

 

Manipulation is such a dirty word.
I prefer market management!

Manipulation or management. Just keep them red, gated, spider in demand 360 high.

In the process it should somehow drag the F1 prices a tiny bit too in my observation.

Gated goes up by 50%, F1 goes up by maybe just maybe 20%. Increase is still an increase.

 

Very nice!!!

Enjoy it with the rest of your beautiful cars.

 

Congrats and welcome!

 

Beautiful, congratulations

 

haha thanks! and something like that. Funny thing, at 19, I had nothing but a 63 ford ranchero to my name. I worked for almost 2 years in a mill(first job) working no less than 80 hr work weeks to save up and pay cash for my first nice pickup often going without spending $5 on lunch because I knew I could buy it sooner. fast forward I am 27 and started trying to find a 360 manual at 25 but could just never find what i'm looking for in my budget and came across a 1959 corvette that needed restoration(I completed this year), then a few other cars, finally when I was able to afford to add a 360, came across a good deal on manual Gallardo, and well that happened first. Then had to start over again saving until the right 360 crossed my path.

I guess you can say I'm a car nut.

When I was little all my money went towards model cars and I always told myself I'll have one of these someday, and this, and this, blah blah blah. I think most of you can relate. Dreams, right?

Yes, Unfortunately we just have to get with the other owners. haha

Thank you everyone. Puts a smile on my face everyday I walk out to garage (and night, as the girlfriend often wonders why I put a couch in the garage, but at least she's ok with it)

 

Awesome story!

 

True dat..

 

Congratulations.
Car looks in great shape.
