‘The 360 is a devastating road car. It does everything you’d hope a Ferrari would but with such polish, precision and ease that you don’t have to think twice about unleashing all its performance. There is perhaps no other car yet made that combines so much raw emotion with so much technical finesse (Evo magazine, June 1999)’
Introduced in 1999 as a replacement for the F355, the 360 was an entirely new design featuring an aluminium spaceframe chassis which was 40% stiffer and 28% lighter than the tubular steel arrangement of its predecessor. The revised bodywork resulted in downforce improving by a factor of four over the F355. Powered by a 3.6-litre V8 coupled to either a six-speed manual or F1 electrohydraulic manual transmission, the 360's lighter weight improved the 0-60 mph dash to just 4.2 seconds with a nominal top speed of over 180mph. In 2001, the spider version was introduced, the stiffness of the spaceframe being ideally suited to handle an open top. This was followed in 2003 by the ultimate incarnation - the 360 racing series inspired Challenge Stradale - featuring a number of weight saving and tuning modifications by the factory.
Finished in the stunning combination of Nero with Black-piped Crema leather upholstery and a Black soft-top, this notably well maintained 360 Spider was supplied new via Graypaul of Sheffield to Andrew Townend Esq. Serviced at 1,436, 2,269, 2,639, 3,648, 5,049, 8,170, 15,722, 20,621, 22,860, 23,712, 28,229, 33,290, 37,575, 38,296, 40,213, 43,896, 44,894 and 46,637 miles, its last two bouts of maintenance were carried by marque specialist AV Engineering of Challock at a cost of over £10,000. Treated to a cambelt change and partial gearbox overhaul as part of this work, the two-seater had previously been entrusted to Shiltech for a new clutch (39,304 miles). Uprated with a Capristo sports exhaust, the Ferrari sounds every bit as dramatic as it looks. More analogue and less complex with its successors but similarly benefiting from aluminium construction, the 360 is growing in popularity and collectability. Offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, original book pack and assorted invoices.
