We need to hear more about what you did NOT like about the way is drives.
I have been a fan of the 360s but never drove a 550/ front engine 12 cyl.

Thanks-

Greg

The 550 is the BEST sounding Ferarri ever. Jesus that thing sends shivers down my spine. Must be the V-12. I was at Laguna a couple of years back and watched the ALMS 360 and 550 cars scoot by and the 550 won hands down in the sound department.

Darren,

does your thoroughbred business ever bring you out to the Keeneland sales ? If so, the next time you are in Lexington we'll have to meet up.

The only problem is Ferrari paint is water based, so it chip's like a ***** ... very brittle.
When I wax the 360, the paint absorbs the wax. Pretty amazing to watch. You can see the paint darken. At least on Red.

I think I heard that some of Barchetta 's caught fire due to their boot design. Anyone else heard it??
