1999 Ferrari 360 Modena Red/tan With Red Piping. Very Low Miles! on 2040-cars
Year:1999
Mileage:16300
Location:
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
This is the classic Ferrari sports car in the classic colors. Original Rosso Corsa paintwork contrasts against the beautiful tan full-leather interior, set off with burgundy piping and deviated red stitching. The car was ordered from the factory with all of the right options: Scuderia shields, Challenge Grill, power seats, Red calipers, and deviated stitching. All components and equipment are original equipment Ferrari - no aftermarket components or improper modifications. With its incredibly low mileage (16,3XX), this is the perfect car to drive, enjoy, and keep for the long-term.
The car has been meticulously maintained and all issues have been addressed. Major timing belt and complete service recently completed, all oil and filter changes completed on schedule, new (factory-specified) Bridgestone Potenza S-02s installed on the original wheels, recent brake bleed and complete inspection performed. The owner Preventative maintenance includes new ECU units, new transmission pump and pressure switch, rebuilt power steering rack, replaced alarm sender, new battery, new door speakers, recent A/C recharge (blows ice cold) and a new headliner.
Gently pull on the low profile door handle and the lightweight aluminum door swings open easily, revealing satin stainless steel doorsills and a cozy interior completely covered in leather. The power seats are aggressively bolstered and very supportive and the interior still smells strongly of Schedoni leather. The cockpit is driver focused, with large, analog, Jaeger-designed gauges surrounded by a leather-wrapped binnacle, with a very large tachometer dominating the view front and center. The steering wheel and shifter paddles are crafted in machined and black anodized aluminum expressing the lightweight purpose that defines the engineering of the car. Twist the sculpted aluminum key in the ignition and the engine sparks to life, jumping into a frenzied but very smooth idle, sounding every bit the refined highly-tuned engine that it is. The sound is a beautifully complex mix of intake noise, mechanical mastery, and exhaust bark, always very present but only loud when working hard. The suspension is surprisingly smooth and the ride is very comfortable, with the wide expanse of the dashboard and the aggressive curves of the front fenders dominating a broad and airy view outwards. Accelerating out from a stop, the automated clutch engages smoothly and propels you forward at any rate you like, feeling overwhelmingly lightweight and nimble and ready to do anything. At all times in this car it is very clear that you're driving something special: a fundamental sports car that is more analog, direct, and naturally balanced than any Ferrari of today. It is a car we have owned and loved for more than three years, mostly for weekend drives through the hills and nights out. We hate to see it go but we're only selling it now because of an upcoming relocation to the East Coast. The car comes with both keys and fobs, all factory tools and manuals, and all ownership documentation and service records. This car has had three perfectionist owners and an easy, garage-kept life on the West Coast. If you're in the market for a 360 Modena, this is the one. Please check out the pictures above and below.

2016 Ferrari 488 Spider First Drive | Pure, uncut spectacle
Tue, Jul 11 2017The majority of the cars that have rolled out of the gates at Maranello can be described as varying degrees of spectacular. Still, until you settle in behind the wheel, you wonder if a real Ferrari can live up to the hype. The first thing I took note of in the Ferrari 488 Spider was the immense and nearly instantaneous acceleration into questionable speeds. It should have been obvious from the start, but the rate that this car builds speeds still managed to surprise me, like the cold wind on a January morning. You've checked the weather on your phone and you know it's going to be cold, but you still wince with that first sharp breeze on your cheek. It's a totally different sensation than something like the Dodge Viper. The Viper requires deliberate effort for everything. Getting in and out is a pain in the ass. The clutch is long and heavy and the pedal box is tiny. The hefty steering requires some strength, especially at low speeds. The shifter wholly mechanical thing that requires a little more motivation than you would expect. It's not easy and it's not trying to be, just so you're not tempted to underestimate it. By comparison, the Ferrari is cake. The doors open wide allowing easy access, made even easier with the retractable hardtop stowed away. The cabin, while completely covered in black leather, is open enough to not feel claustrophobic. The steering is light but doesn't feel loose and the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission can be left in automatic to make things easier. In sport mode, the exhaust is relatively subdued, allowing you to actually enjoy the stereo should you choose to. But goose the gas and a wave of panic and exhilaration momentarily wash away any other thoughts. The 488 Spider packs a mid-mounted 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 making 661 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. It's not quite the screamer of past Ferrari V8s, but what it lacks in aural excitement it makes up for in brute force. The old 4.5-liter V8 in the Ferrari 458 was powerful, but most of that power was at the top of the rev range. On the other hand, the 488 feels strong in any gear at any RPM. Boost is limited in lower gears, changing the power band in an effort to dull the turbo lag somer. While there isn't a big kick when boost comes on, it doesn't feel quite like a naturally-aspirated engine either. Once you're in boost, complaints seem to fall by the wayside.
Ferrari looking to become even more exclusive
Thu, 09 May 2013While most automakers are clawing and scratching for every possible sale, it sounds like Ferrari is content in losing a few potential customers in the name of better exclusivity and higher profits. Autocar reports that Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo recently stated that the Italian automaker hopes to sell fewer than 7,000 units globally in 2013 compared to last year's tally of 7,318.
As a part of this plan, Ferrari will be slowing its production lines and trying to create a balanced market for its cars in the US, the Middle East, Europe and China - the latter two being the automaker's biggest markets. Montezemolo also said that Ferrari would not be expanding its model lineup with SUVs, sedans or small cars.
Shell Ultimate Automotive Enthusiast contest returns to send winner to Barrett-Jackson and Maranello
Wed, 14 Aug 2013The first Shell V-Power Ultimate Enthusiast contest was held last year and sent finalists to a VIP experience at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, while the grand prize winner went to Maranello, Italy for some intimate time with Ferrari. The Dutch member of the seven sisters is doing it again this year: from now until September 17 anyone who wants a chance to live the same adventure can submit stories and photos that prove why they're the ultimate enthusiast.
Among the judging panel will be Roger Penske, Craig Jackson of Barrett-Jackson, drag racer Don Prudhomme, Tony Marini of Hot August Nights, Car and Driver chief Eddie Alterman, Road & Track honcho Larry Webster and last year's contest winner Harold Craige (pictured above with his wife at Fiorano).
Anyone in the US is welcome to submit. Three finalists will be flown to Scottsdale for a three-day VIP tour of Barrett-Jackson's January action, and they'll get a year's worth of V-Power premium gasoline. The grand prize winner will be announced in Arizona, and that person will get a week in Italy to explore the Ferrari factory complex and drive one of the company cars on the Fiorano track. Having been to the Maranello factory ourselves, we can attest that it's a bucket-list item for anyone who truly digs cars.
