    Since I've had the car in my garage for about 2 months now, figured it was time to share! Purchased a gated 360 Modena early in June, Rosso Corsa over Nero, and have already put about 1000 trouble-free miles on it. Gotta get the driving in before winter hits :) It's not just my 1st Ferrari, but also my first sports car (yes, I may be crazy).

    Some of you may remember the car for sale in the classifieds here. Was completely as described and the transaction/purchase process was as smooth as could be. Car has a few little quirks, as to be expected from a 17-year old car, but nothing major at all. As they say, it's a "driver", which is exactly what I wanted and spent over a year looking for.

    My impressions so far...very easy car to drive. Suspension is firm but actually quite comfortable on longer trips. Doesn't fight you if you are stuck in traffic or going "normal" speeds, but lay on it and it feels like you unleash a monster. Gotta pay attention to the speedo as it ramps up fast. Love the sound too, that Tubi exhaust is glorious!

    Very nice color and Manual !!! Congrats !!!

    I have a simple question from 430 question here too. Why are the gated shifters have standard seats? there are 2 gated shifter posted somewhere here and both had standard seats. Not racing or daytona...

    Curious...

    Yep. I posted this question in the other thread. Seems it almost went hand in hand.

    Coincidence. Many 3-pedals have Daytonas, including mine. Lots of pics on Kevin's "3-pedal Modena market watch" thread.
