Ferrari 360 Modena

Ferrari Logo

In the grand tradition of the company, the Ferrari 360 Modena is a toy for the grown up. There are few people who could actually call this a car. It is actually a machine designed to drive fast, turn heads, and make the grade as only a Ferrari can. The Ferrari 360 Modena is not a transportation vehicle. You would not use it to car pool the little league team or take the family on vacation. You own and drive a Ferrari 360 Modena because you can, period. Nothing could be grander than ownership of one of these machines from the most fabled auto maker in the world.

The Ferrari 360 Modena comes in two different body styles, the Berlinetta is the hard top version and the Spider is the convertible model. Base price is just over $140,000.00 and goes from there. The list of features is long and impressive. Those who choose the Spider will get a power top. Leather seats, CD player and air are all standard equipment along with ABS and traction control.

All models of the Ferrari 360 Modena come with the 395 horsepower, 3.6 liter, dual overhead cam, 40 valve engines. Needless to say it is a screamer. What is nice though is the fact that it is not so powerful that you cannot drive it everyday. That is what the Ferrari 360 Modena was actually designed for, to be a super-car that will make you the envy of the entire office, and it does just that. The engineers worked hard to make it economical enough that people would want to roll it out and drive it down the road as much as possible. This has worked well for the company as they are garnering an image that appeals to those who want more than a collector car.

The interior is comfortable and roomy on the Ferrari 360 Modena. This is deceptive as the cockpit looks small. There is the matter of the seats, which are not only leather, but just the perfect density to make for comfortable driving. The overall driving feel is classic Ferrari with the tight suspension and rail cornering turns. This is one of the finest driving experiences that anyone could ever find. Ferrari has truly done it again, and will continue to do so as long as there are people who want fast, stylish super cars.
