1999 Ferrari 360 Modena Red/tan With Red Piping. Very Low Miles! on 2040-cars
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.

'Ferrari' is an oft-banned search term in China, but why?
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The Internet has been a boon for car enthusiasts; after all, information about any car ever made is available at a few taps of the keyboard, whenever you'd like. Unfortunately, some Chinese motor heads are not quite as lucky because state censors have been intermittently banning searches for Ferrari on the country's micro-blogging sites, according to Time.
The problem has nothing to do with Maranello's supercars; it's what they represent. The Prancing Horse has become the symbol for so-called "princelings," wealthy young Chinese who use their parents' privileges in the Communist elite to afford luxuries.
The first bout of censorship came in 2011 when the son of then-high-ranking politician Bo Xilai was spotted cruising around Beijing in a red Ferrari, a vehicle much more expensive than he should have been able to afford. It started trending on Chinese social media, and censors began blocking searches for Ferrari in the car's red color. The Italian brand was censored again briefly in 2012 when a Chinese investor crashed his Prancing Horse into two other cars in Singapore.
LaFerrari Spider among Maranello's future product plans
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Niche though its products may be, Ferrari typically rolls out a new model every year. 2009, for example, saw the introduction of the California. In 2010 came the 458 Italia, followed by the 458 Spider in 2011. In 2012 we greeted the FF, and in 2013 both the F12 Berlinetta and 458 Speciale. This year the hyper-exotic LaFerrari was joined by the California T, and you can bet that Maranello will keep up that pace by rolling out new versions of and replacements for each of these models in succession.
Among the plans which Car and Driver reports Ferrari has afoot will be an open-top LaFerrari Spider - something which the Prancing Horse marque hasn't done at the top of its range since the F50, which came exclusively with a removable hardtop. The 6.3-liter hybrid V12 will likely carry over unchanged, as will most of the other parameters, but for the joy of experiencing 1,000 horsepower with the wind in your hair - and the exclusivity of being one of the just 50 owners - we're told to expect a price tag roughly double that of the existing $1.35 million coupe.
Of course, Ferrari has more plans than simply chopping the roof off its hybrid hypercar. In Geneva next March, the House that Enzo Built is tipped to introduce a Modificato version of the 458 with a twin-turbo V8 producing around 670 horsepower - over one hundred horses more than in the new California T. A refresh for the all-wheel-drive FF is also said to be underway for 2016, when it will receive a less awkward roofline and the possible addition of a V8 base version alongside the V12 that will remain naturally aspirated. As it will in the updated F12 due the following year.
