Ferrari 360 Modena
Ferrari knew that the car that would replace
the 355 had to be something really exceptional.
The Ferrari 360 Modena that was introduced in 1999 is exactly
this: it's everything a Ferrari should be.
First off, the 360 is a very beautiful
car, from the airvents in the front to the rear quad tailpipes,
and everything in between.
Then there is the 3.6 liter V8 that produces 400 hp, enough
to accelerate the car to 60 miles per hour in just 4.3 seconds
and give it a top speed of 190 mph.
What really makes the 360 an exceptional
car though, is that it holds every part of the Ferrari spirit
but still is an easier to live with, more refined car than its
predecessor. In the 2000 Geneva Motor Show the stunning 360
Spider was also unveiled. It is scheduled to go on sale early
in 2001
