    In my quest for a 360 Spider, I have decided to sell my 360. Just dropped it off at FoSF this morning. Brad drove it to make sure it runs (!) and said even with 30k miles on it, it runs as tight and quick as new. If anyone knows someone who can give her a new home, please contact Brad or Evan at FoSF. It's a 2000 360 Modena, 6-spd, Blue Le Mans/Cuio, CF sport seats, 30k service done, cam variator done, Cargraphic exhaust (aka Fuchs), stock exhaust included, no accidents, front/rear challenge grills. I loved that car. So sad to see it go. I'm going to lie down and cry myself to sleep now........

    Why did you leave her??? How dare you... Been there, done that... I know how you feel. The only way to overcome those emotional feelings is to replace it as soon as possible...

    Keep it in the family...

    One of the most beautiful 360s I've seen, w/o a doubt. Can't say the same fo rthe driver. :D

    Honestly, I remember when Norm first told me he bought it and tried to describe it over the phone. I then tried to describe my regurgitation to him. Of course, I had to swallow those words hard when I saw it.

    Hopefully someone will quickly realize what a stunning car it is.

    PS: Spider? Norman. We need to talk.

    Norman, I had no idea you planned on getting rid of the 360 so quickly! Such a beautiful and rare color/optioned 360. The sport seats really are awesome.

    If you need some help finding a spider, let me know

    Oh phew, I was going to beat you senseless. You HAVE to put the same (cargraphic/fuchs) exhaust on your spider, you had THE BEST SOUNDING 360 ever!

    Go toppless.

    Sorry to see it go, Norm, but I'm sure you'll love the Spider. What color/equip are you looking for?

    Hey Gary, Not sure yet. I definitely want the sport seats, but they're hard to come by. If I could get the same color combo I'll be in heaven, but I seriously doubt I'll find that. Prob blue, titanium, silver or black. Shields if possible. Challenge grills I can add on later.

    Were there spiders with sport seats? I don't recall seeing any, come to think of it.

    Similar issues as the 355 drop tops?

    Boba, thanks for the offer of your beloved. I will pick her up tomorrow. Please have her washed and ready to rumble. :)

    I've seen spiders with sports seats, but are incredibly rare. I just can't seem to get those seats out of mind. I think I'm gonna have a tough time finding the perfect machine. Ah, but the pursuit is 90% of the fun, isn't it?

    Mario, the wheels are still on the car, but will be coming off once the stocks are put back on. I will probably put them on the new car.

    Hey Kuzi daddy, i know you're right man! I can't wait!! I'll show that Bob Afett how good I look topless!!

    Norman... So Hot Right Now.

    PS: The sport seats for 360 can't be impossible to just buy after the fact. Can't be more than $10k, and I'm sure a car with them would fetch more than $10k plus be very difficult to locate.

    I loved (and was loved by) those seats, sigh.

    Keeping the wheels?

    They were rare, just as they are rare on the coupe, but even more so. A friend of mine had a 2002 Spider with sport seats, and both he and his wife hated them, felt they caused back and shoulder pain. Disliked them so much they sold the car, and it took them forever because most buyers of Spiders don't want them, I guess they're too extreme for a lot of people.

    I have almost resigned myself to the fact that I won't find the sports seats in a spider. Ben is right. They cost over 10k. Not cost effective to purchase after the fact. Might have to go aftermarket.
