Vehicle Description
If it has a prancing horse on the front, then it's a purebred
exotic sports car born out of winning on the track. But race-ready
cars never looked so good. This clean 2001 Ferrari 360 Modena takes
all the competition lessons from international victories and cloaks
it in bold red and supple Italian leather. And yes, this is the
rarely-seen six-speed model.
The Maranello-applied Rosso Corsa paint looks fantastic, but you
already expected that. A car like this doesn't sit outside.
Instead, it gets the prime space in the garage where lesser cars
are kicked out if they have to be parked anywhere close to it. And
the few times when this exotic does get to hit the town (it's only
averaged about 1,500 miles annually) responsible care means the
iconic red paint shines with distinction. It loves to let the light
showcase the hand-formed panels that are part of rolling art first
penned by Pininfarina. So the exceptional presentation means you
turn anywhere you arrive into an instant car show. But there's also
function in the form. The seductively low slope of the front,
crystal-clear covered headlights, tapered inlets, flowing fenders
are all part of a look that knows how to cheat the wind. This even
has the desirable Challenge rear grille.
A Ferrari is as much about style as it is about speed, and you are
reminded of this the moment you open the door. The seats have the
kind of stitching you would find on a fine Italian suit, and the
leather is worthy of a Milan runway. These beautiful bucket seats
with the prancing horse embossed on the headrests will also hold
you in place like no other when the road gets twisty. Plus, you can
power adjust them for the ultimate in comfort. As you look around
the whole interior it has the preserved and premium feel that
reminds you a top-dollar car also gets the best in care. It comes
loaded with great features like power windows, power locks, keyless
entry, AM/FM/CD stereo, dual airbags and air conditioning. Sure,
all that's good for keeping you and your passenger comfortable, but
really what you love is grabbling the leather-wrapped steering
wheel and the iconic gated shifter to make that large central tach
dance.
Driving a Ferrari is an experience like no other, and that's why
they are forever the ultimate driver's cars. The original 3.6-liter
DOHC V8 is such a work of art that it gets its own glasshouse
behind the driver so everyone can view it. One twist of the key,
and it comes to life with a muscular tone out of the Tubi exhaust
that seems to shout, "What are we standing still for?!" This 400
horsepower engine loves to sing its way up to the 8,500 RPM
redline. And for many of us, it's extremely desirable to see the
six-speed manual transmission in place, because this was the
beginning era of the paddle shifters. There's nothing wrong with
the F1-style, but there's something magical about rowing your own
gears with a gated shifter that connects you to generations of
other classic Ferraris. And this one is still all about modern
performance. There's a smooth undercarriage for airflow; a
race-inspired fully independent suspension that sticks to the
pavement like glue; and four-wheel disc brakes with large drilled
and slotted rotors with bold red calipers. But you already knew a
true Ferrari was engineered to be a terrific performance
machine.
Just as important as the condition of a Ferrari are the records.
This comes complete with the owner's manual packet, tool kit, car
covers, factory battery charger, battery tender, two sets of keys,
and comprehensive maintenance records. So, nothing is stopping you
from taking this prancing horse home, except if someone else gets
here first. Call now!
