    Since my 360 spider came into my life 5 years ago, reading the posts on this forum has been part of my daily routine. I cannot begin to estimate how much valuable information all of you contributors have provided, and that definitely made the whole ownership experience so much more enjoyable.

    However, life has been very good and yesterday I drove home in a 2014 458 spider, having said farewell to my 360. So I'll be switching over to the 458/488 section but just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone that posts here. Thank you!

    I too sold my Modena 360 F1 a few months ago and replaced it with a 2015 458. Both are great cars. I must say the 360 gave only Joy. The 458 beautifully styled & certainly more refined retains it's heritage. Good luck with your 14 Spider.

    I too just sold my 360 not too long ago. I am in the market for a 458, but having trouble finding one that I like. I want to find a red 2012 to 2015 coupe locally (within 4 hrs drive) with very low mileage, that looks new. It's not easy.
    Congrats to both of you for finding your 458's! Hoping to join you guys soon!

    I'm guessing most of the folks in that section at one point were here. At the moment I am working on a 488 build, but if I do decide (I saw a white brand new 488 a few week ago and I cant seem to get it out of my mind) to do it, I am going to keep the 430 too. My gearshift 430 was one of the very few cars I regret not keeping, not going to make that mistake again. 458/488 are great cars, but for an old guy like me there is something about the less complex cars (like the 360/430 4C Evora 400) that makes them keepers. Good luck with your new car.

    You obviously missed something...most likely a sense of humor.

    Congrats on the new car. I don't know how a car could be much better all around than the 458. Wife has an Italia.

    Stop. My 430 is new to me and I refuse to believe a 458 is better. My wallet doesn't want to hear it.

    Was that a terrible sarcastic remark, or did I mis-read it. :(

    Hey, I guess that's better than someone who goes around name-calling people he doesn't know on a forum that he barely ever contributes to. Thanks for the well wishes!

    Congrats on the 458! I absolutely loved driving he 458 when I had a chance several years ago! That DCT was a joy to drive on twisty roads.

    It's high on the list of "what F would I buy next..." if given the opportunity.

    But that would mean finding a scenario where the garage grows big enough for it and my 3-pedal 360, as that is never going anywhere.
