Ferrari 360 Modena Spider

The Spider version of the Ferrari 360 was the first proper mid-engined convertible model from the Italian carmaker. Rather than having a removable targa roof panel it features a fabric hood which folds down in 20 seconds and is hidden under a rear deck with twin ‘speed humps’ that also conceal the roll-over hoops. With a more open cockpit than previous soft-top Ferraris, the 360 Spider feels like a genuine convertible rather than a car with a big sunroof.
It made up a third of all 360s built and explains why it still commands high price. It uses the same extensive aluminium frame and composite bodywork as the coupe 360M, but there’s also extra bracing to maintain rigidity.
The most obvious safety items on the Ferrari 360 Spider are the twin roll-over hoops placed just behind the seats. These provide protection should the car end upside down plus the windscreen frame has also been braced with extra strengthening. All Spiders come with ESP traction control and twin front airbags as standard.
As the Ferrari 360 Spider is mid-engined, lowering the roof does not affect the boot space which is at the front of the car. While not huge, the luggage compartment is better than most supercar rivals’ and offers enough space for a couple of soft bags.
With the roof in place, the Spider has just as much headroom as the coupe model and getting in and out is just as straightforward. There’s plenty of space for driver and passenger, while dropping the roof requires nothing more than the press of a button.
The Spider uses the same 3.6-litre V8 engine as the coupe model, complete with five valves per cylinder and 400bhp to rocket it from 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds and on to 183mph. Driving with the roof down allows you to hear the high revving engine all the more clearly and it sounds superb when pushed hard.
However it’s also docile at lower speeds and remarkably smooth and fuss-free in town, with none of the temperament of older Ferraris. The six-speed manual gearbox is the more rewarding to use.
This F360 is from 2004 with only 25.000 kms and 2 owners. Always maintained in the Ferrari Network it is in its 1st paint.
Its Nurburgring grey body with a balck leather interior brings a touch of elegance to this beautiful Italian spotrscars.
Nothing to do but turn the key, wake the V8 up, push the clutch and put the 1st gear with this iconic Gearbox lever and feel the best sensation of freedom ever.
