So my son says...

We pull up at church today and park next to this F360, and my son says, "let's get out and check out these beauties together." And before he even shuts his door he proclaims, "ya, his is better!" Haha, thanks son.

I have to admit they both look pretty sexy from behind

Not this morning, but I work in Irvine and I have passed another silver aero kit 996 on Alton before a few times.

Yup, must have been the other guy. It was a light silver, arctic, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was polar.

+1

The 360 Modena styling is one of my favorite for Ferrari, but my pockets are too deep and arms too short for the maintenance bills

i too gave them a moments thought but opted also for the german reliability ( again lol )
but the 360 is a sweet lookin car, and still an f car.

but the longer i have these 96t's though, the more i think of em as really fast karmann ghias LOL

I considered a Ferrari when I was looking and was told by good sources to stay away because of the maintenance. I am so busy with my house rehab that the miles I drive are low so it would have probably been a safe buy lol.

LOL, how old is your son?

Funny how maturity changes our perspective on different things.

13, not the age to care about the differences in engineering. Dancing horses and Rossa Corsa paint can seem way sexier than dad's Porsche when you're that age.
