    Please, I'm surprised this thread has been as tame as it has been. Forum etiquette 101 is don't insult whatever it is that the other forum members are passionate about, unless of course you are a troll and your aim is to ruffle feathers. You can't call someone's baby ugly (or "fugly" as you so eloquently put it) and expect them to say "hmm, good point!"

    exactly, such tact. And to say "hey the world would be boring if we all think alike.." is just an excuse to say sorry not sorry.

    It's like saying "your 360 is so slow and old, mustang gt is faster" and then saying "oh wow this thread took a life of its own".

    Well if you both want an apology, you are more than welcome to it. I am sorry if you got offended that I said your car (that is desired the world over) is not to my liking. I haven't been cutting in my statements and simply just stating that everyone has different tastes is hardly an excuse not to apologise. Your opinion is yours and you shouldn't catch feelings over what someone else thinks. By me saying the thread has taken a life of its own is just stating it has had lots of replies. Plenty of people say the 360 is underpowered or the interior is bad but you don't see people getting upset by that. Enjoy your cars as everyone who owners a ferrari is a winner in my book.

    The OP is obviously a s#*t stirrer. You post on a 360/430 forum that a 430 Is fugly. This is a forum where guys with 430's are passionate about guess what?? 430's! Be it Scuds or 16M's. I smell a troll. I'm done with this thread.

    Everybody has their own opinion - i don't happen to agree with u but that's not the point - perceptions of a particular model can change for a person over time - I laughed at the 612 when it came out - i was all about tracking and I couldn't understand how Ferrari could build a car like that - who could it appeal to - well 8 years later I found out - me - and it has been one of my all time favorite Ferraris or exotics that i have owned - still have my tracked out Scud though

    IT's not ugly, definitely (MY opinion) is that the 360 is better looking and nicer curves. The Scuderia and 16M are something else though, very raw- and race-inspired looking.

    The 360 vs F430 threads have been beaten to death on this forum. As a 360 owner, we know you are in love with your car and think the world of it. No need to start a thread looking to start a fight with the F430 folks. Calling the F430 fugly won't make your car any prettier. Why do some 360 owners have the needs to compare with the F430? Threads like 360 is prettier than F430 or can't justify the cost difference between the F430 over the 360 threads pop up too often. Rarely do I see F430 owners posting threads like this.

    I'm with Labman - we should close this pointless thread down.

    Long live the 430

    I don't think it's ugly either. The Scuderia made it look very muscular, everything was just right on that.

    The standard 360 sits too high on the suspension, but it's an easy fix...The 360 Spider is one of the best looking convertibles out there IMO.

    360CS is where it's at though. Everything is just perfect looks wise.

    I say that I'm a big fan of the rear end. Also agree that a little upgrades here or there makes it a whole different ballgame. I've waited several years to find the right one. Almost bought a 360 a couple years ago but the rear did not impress me. I guess it was too rounded/subtle. (hard to explain).<a

    Thread is odd to say the least considering the F430 is probably one of the prettiest cool looking exotics going and I think the best looking one next to the 458 and the million dollar plus F cars. I think there would have been more sympathy if this was about the FF, the FF IMO is an odd ugly duckling for a F IMO, but about the only exotic I could see someone not liking

    The curved rear window grills on a 430 Coupe engine cover are something special, I remember blasting down the A1 from Milan following at very high speed a 458 and an Italia, thinking how much better the 430 Coupe looked from behind.

    I thought the 458 and the Italia were one and the same.
