Trying to track down 360 Production numbers

I'm looking to purchase a 360 Spider in the very near future taking advantage of the low prices at the moment. After 8 wonderful years with it I've just sold my beloved 348ts for a value that should see me step into a good 360 Spider with very little additional funds required. It was an agonising decision however the offer was just too good to refuse and I'm hoping that the step up will prove to be a wise choice !

In particular I want to get a manual spider and was trying to find out how many manuals were produced and in particular how many RHD manual spiders were produced?

 

Sorry guys I am aware there has been a number of threads on this but I couldnt find the specific number I really wanted, 360 RHD Spiders ?!

 

Yes I saw that but doesnt drill down far enough.....

Came across this on a chat forum called 'TEAMSPEED'

To me this implies that 346 'RHD Manual Spiders' were produced. Would that be how you would read it as well ?

 

yes true. This one had more detail so I didn't notice the numbers were the same.

 

OOOkk so this is from 'Maranello Concessionaires' and the other source is referred to as the 'Master' dated 2008 which should at least have all the 360 numbers up to date.

Totals for RHD are close for both sources, Total 360 Spiders for MC = 7,579. Total 360's for 'the Master' = 7,500

But the RHD manual vs F1 numbers seem to differ considerably if I'm reading it right...................

For the Master we get a total 725 RHD (through 2003), 379 F1 (through 2003) which implies 346 manual RHD 360 Spiders were produced from a total of 725 cars

For the MC figures we get..................

UK RHD 478 Manual, 513 F1 which suggests 478 out of a total of 991

That is a fairly big difference from two credible sources !?!? Or am I reading the numbers wrong. Your thoughts ?

 

Ahh fair enough then. So the Maranello Concessionaires can be considered the more reliable final figure.

Thanks to all !
