    Yesterday i was in the wachau with my dad (lower-austria). We enjoyed a good dinner and finally i went to the toilett. on my way i passed i quite good looking blonde! as i came back i looked out of the window and i realised a blue godness outside the restaurant. a 360 modena! i ran out and looked at it from everyside, just a wonderful car, no not wonderful, this is wrong, just the best car in the world! although it was raining, my father and i were looking at it like little schoolboys. and i said to my father, that i would hope that the owner comes out. 3 minutes later the blonde and the f-owner came out. so much luck is enormous! and i told him to make it loud. he said he will fullfill my wish and said to ferrari: "got wet in the rain, poor boy"

    he turned on the motor and my ears nearly began to explode! such a wonderful sound! then he drove away in the rain. the car was accelerating it was so wunderful! then he got into problems and he nearly lost the control of it.

    i never will forget that sound, that car, that blonde, that... it was just wonderful. and in our area you are praised when you see a ferrari once a month, and actually it was my 2 modena ever seen! the only thing that i found quite weird, was that the modena didn't attract a lot of attention! maybe of the colour? what's your opinion? is the 360 that headturner or depends on the colour how many people look at it?

    As many know i posted my experience with a 360 Modena a while back. It was wonderful....i simply saw it as i was coming out of a movie theater, its gorgeous yellow butt was sticking out from the rest of the parked cars. Glad to hear you had such a nice experience as well. It attracted quite a bit of attention, but i still managed to talk to the owner and sit inside the cockpit.....i cant wait to rent one with my dad this summer....its gonna be great....

    Though I enjoy the attention my 355 recieves it is sometimes nice just to be left alone with many People not realising what the car is.If anyone is interested I always speak to them,after all I am an enthusiast also.

    So much easier with a silver one I find...

    (we should form a separate '99 silver gts club!)

    I let some local kiddywinks sit in my car a while back, and now every time I start it up they reappear demanding a ride out!

    to tell you the truth I have a black 360 modena and it does not attract as much as suy yellow or red but I am so happy to say least I tinted the windows and powder coated the wheels black as well it is really hidden in the night thats for sure but it allows me to drive to the movie theater and othe populated area without it being a burdon. Don't get me wrong I get stopped at least 3 times a day by people wanting to know about the car but i could not imagine haveing red or yellow

    "red" attracts a lot of attention but i will defer my comparison until i see a picture of the "blond"
