    I have been looking at 360Modena and would like to have some comments, criticisms, praises from the owners so that I can make my mind up.

    Very well built sports car. It will be trouble free as long as you keep driving it regularly.

    And forget the F1 hype -- you'll have much more fun with a 6-speed manual! :)

    The only criticism I have is that it takes about 20 miles to warm it up to the point where you can safely start having fun with it.

    Happy hunting!

    Modenas are much more modern so they are more reliable and refined than your current F-cars.

    If you are to track the car, you will feel a great difference with the performance. Even on public road, the difference is quite significant. It is truly a sport car you can use every day.

    The maintenance must be carried out as specified by Ferrari as with all other models.

    I love the design but this view is not shared by everyone. If you like the look of it, you will not be disappointed. Try F1 before you make the decision though. I have the manual.

    I just recently got my 02 spider and had a 355 spider. The 360 is very impressive, "try it, you'll like it".

    I am sort of a traditionalist and would prefer the stick but there will be no choice here in Thailand as they are all F1. I will not track it.
    Any common faults or other cricisms.

    i have had my 360 since 2000-its a f1-a great car-minor issues in the beginning-fuel gage did not work-loose wire on the radio-never played the radio anyways-have had no other problems -i have tracked it-not hard but at my own pace--i always let it warm up before i drive it-had reg. maint. per the book-it is a joy to drive-i have taken it on 6hr. trips-my best advice if you get one is to drive it.when i had maint. done on it at the dealership they are required to run the car .i went for a drive with the service mech.-it was a experience-driving it hard will not hurt it.make sure you get all the service records-this is a must.!good luck

    The 360 has everything I've always looked for in a performance car. I absolutely love it. It can be driven everyday without problem if you want. And the 6-speed is a blast. If you like to grin a lot when you drive then get one!

    I've had my '02 since December. I'm loving every minute of it. Trouble free so far (knock on wood). If I had it to do over again I probably would have bought an '04 for the additional warranty time. Good Luck.
