    Congratulations!! GREAT looking car. Love the matte painted/powdercoated wheels. I have my starfish wheels powdercoated Gunmetal. Aftermarket exhaust??? I think a rear challenge grill would complete the look.

    Congrats, again!!!

    I that the whole black rear of the car look in some models? I prefer the colour match myself - the black back reminds me of the 355 and that’s not my favourite

    The "black back" is a Challenge grill which offers increased ventilation in the engine bay. Like most things Ferrari, it's operationally useful.

    Even with the red tail your Modena looks damn good, the black Challenge grill does not impose itself. Your boys have every reason to be proud and excited.

    Well the Mondial is quite a bit louder that’s for sure. Although the Modena is not a cabriolet. The Mondial is more of a bumpier ride for sure. There is an apparent huge shift in refinement with the 360. Really night and day. The Mondial was very memorable as my first Ferrari and did get a lot of attention. The 360 feels and looks like a real super car that honestly I can’t believe I am driving. The Mondial was a manual transmission and the 360 is F1 transmission - the paddle shifting is very good - I was on the fence of getting a manual 360 but very happy with the F1. The steering of the Mondial is not power so it’s like driving a truck trying to maneuver it in parking situations or U turns...
