    Just had the opportunity through Foreign Cars Italia to drive a 360F1, holy cow!! Man, what a car!!. I also drove a 355 6spd. It too, was a fantastic car, but the 360 took my breath away. It feels like my TR, only without the rough edges. Can't sleep, cruising Ebay, Ferrariads, FerrariBuy, Dupont, you name it.
    As an aside what is the consensus of F1 vs the 6spd. I was convinced the 6spd was the way to go, but the F1 felt pretty addictive.
    You guys think it might be spring?

    Spring? yes. Time for another thread on F1 v 6-speed? no... do a search... there's a bunch of very long threads... everyone's opinions are there or should be added there.

    I bought a 04 360 Spider F1 two weeks ago and I just love the F1 tranny. Today I discovered the 'Sport' swith on the dash, and OMG does it shift cleaner at higher RPMs. This is my first F-car and I have only driven a Ferrari with F1 so I have nothing to compare to, but I would not want anything else! Good Luck on your hunt!

    Thanks for the tip, I think that will make a difference with the shifting,

    Danny, every hot shoe I have talked to sez that the F1 is the way to go on the 360, to fully experience the car the way it is supposed to be driven. Moreover, the F1 on the CS is supposed to be even better.

    Nowhere near unanimous, I'm afraid...
