    Very interesting Gary.

    Hmm, looks like a 360 Modena Evoluzione coming out this Spring and it doesn't sound like the CS because the CS had a date early Winter last year.

    I doubt it will have many changes, just something to breathe life for another year.

    I'm all for that. Fiske's designs are timeless. Outstanding designer.

    Okay, I am going to chime in here. I talked to my rep today. Since I have one of these on order I am assuming that he is giving me the straight talk on this. The latest news found out this week: there will an all new 360 model at the end of 2005 most likely as a 2006 model. It has already been designed by Pininfarina. It will be mid engined 8 cylinder, and the HP rating will be "pushing 500" but it will not be the engine from the Maserati. Spider will come one year after.

    This corresponds pretty closely with what I heard from the guy in Germany. The more we keep hearing approximately the same thing from completely different sources, the higher the probability of it being true.

    Assuming they all didn't ultimately get it from the Internet.
    I don't know how many times people have started telling
    me some story they heard from the news or somewhere...
    that I know for sure is an Internet Urban Legend that has
    been circulating for years and is confirmed legend.

    Its hard to know what to believe any more!!

    Jennie and I just went to see a great true biographical movie. The man lived an amazing life. He was friends with a 12 foot giant, got caught in a thunderstorm that floated his car to the top of a tree, stopped time when seeing the love of his life, and saw how he was going to die in the eye of a witch.

    Really good movie BTW, Dallas Morning News gave it a B, I give it an A-.

    If you're going to be hiring anyone, you'll want to make sure you're getting the right guy. His name is Henrik Fisker.

    I agree w/ the others about Henrik Fisker. I love what he's doing at Aston Martin & what he has done in the past. I already have my name on the list for the AMV8 that he's designed.

    Staying on topic w/ the thread though I truly hope that the next gen. 360 & 575 are stunners. The current Ferrari's (360, 550, 575, Enzo, & now the new 612) don't really catch my interest as much as the older models did (288, F40, 308, 512TR, 355). Only time will tell.

    I agree with that. However, they are all growing on me. Until about August, I hated the 360's styling but now I think it's nice, but not better looking that the 355. I am only just now atrting to appreciate the 550/575. I don't know. I don't expect the next car to be something I fall in love with right away like I did the with the 348 and then the 355.
