Ferrari F355 Spider or F360 Spider?




I personally like the F355 spider and think it's more Ferrari than the new F360. I bet I share the minority opinion though...

I would agree that the F355 has more of a classic "Ferrari" look, but I still prefer the F360.

Both are sweet, but I'd take the 360. The 360 is newer and faster.

From what I've read in the various auto publications, the F355 is actually sweeter sounding that the F360. Ferrari shouldn't have messed with the mechanical music. Editors have complained that the F360 is raspy to the point of being harsh than pleasant as the melodious scream of the F355......

the F355 looks more classy, but the 360 looks much more functional

I personally LOVE the 348 (the 355's predecessor).... it looks like a mini Rossa... But the 360 has some mean looks!

For what the current market value is on 360 spiders....you could have 2 355 spiders, more or less (or one spider, one coupe).

Overall though, I would go 360...even if they were the same price.

F355 all the way baby! More classy look, definitely sounds better (I've driven my pop's modded F355), and faster than 360 with the right mods.

360 with the right mods would spank a 355!

In Ferrari-dom, lower production numbers are better.

Better for long-term value and better for the short-term wow-factor.

Let's face it, neither one is a bad decision. I wish we all had the trouble of deciding which of these two Ferrari's to get.

If neither one pulls you even slightly more than the other, I would go with the 360.

As for the roar of the engine, if you played me tape of both I probably couldn't tell you which was which, but if you want a sweeter sound, consensus is to go with the 355. I personally like the flowing lines and shape of the 360 better though.

I love the F355, but I'd have to agree with the masses and say the F360... that thing is just too tight.....

They both look good, but I would take the 360. It has a nicer interioir and looks a little better.

F 360, it is so beautiful, I saw two of them parked next to each other at Pelican Hills in Newport Beach. That was an awesome sight.
