    And what a car!!! 360 Rossa corsa/Nera interior. Tubi, race seats, 4 point harness, big wheels, F1.

    Unbelievable. Whoever says ferraris are for rich posers is a jealous looser. That car is RAW. And I drove some nice cars in my life-time: Aston, Amg's, 911's ///M3 etc. Not much to add except that I was pretty shaken after a long-ish spirited drive.

    Erm, compared to the ///M3 it is not dissimiliar, only turned up by warp factor 5. The SMG is superior to the F1 though, but that is to be expected. Otherwise the 360 is more nervy, more darty, more wired.

    The M3 is just such a sensational car, nevertheless, the 360 still shines brightly. Long story short I was not dissapointed, it is all that it was cracked up to be (the 360).

    On a side note they were selling the 360 for 150K CHF (with 7000km, a 2002) or about a 100KUS. Ferraris are much cheaper to begin with in Switzerland, about 911turbo money. When the prices start to approach 120-130 K I will probably try to get one, hopefully in around 2 years.

    I hope for the animal attacks to continue, I've been ambushed by a jaguar, bitten by a horse and now I hope to be gored by a bull.

    Wait 'til your f*cked by the the service department. Then your experience will be complete. ;)

    And....maybe not ALL Ferrari owners are "posers", but a lot are. ;).

    Enjoy.
