My 360 Modena

[normy360]

Hi everybody, I'm new to the board. Here's my 360 Modena. Le Mans Blue with Tobacco interior. Carbon fiber racing seats. 6-spd manual. Cargraphic exhaust. Fun.

Nice :)

[bobafett]

Norman, you sexy baby!

For all of you who haven't seen the difference, LeMans Blue (a special order color) is SUPER SEXY - one of the single nicest colors I've ever seen. And his interior, while it may look goofy in pictures (hahah, sorry Norm), is actually extremely handsome.

Plus I'm jealous of his seats...I want them, mais ils sont trop cher.

Looking hot, cutie pie! :D

--Dan

[bobafett]

Oh, about that last picture, what Norman isn't showing you is that shortly afterwards, he was sitting in the kitty litter! :D (Just kidding buddy boy - knock on wood!)

--Dan

[novass]

Very nice. Were those seats a custom option or aftermarket kind of thing? They look very good in there. Where in Cali are you located? Dont worry im not a stalker or anything, but the scenery in the first pick looks really nice.

[bobafett]

His seats are an option from the facotry, but they are pretty rare. All CF, they cost anywhere from 4-7k (EACH!!!) depending on your dealer. I want them badly, but I can't possibly justify the cost. Absolutely silly.

But they are SOOO nice. So sexy! :D Very comfortable, actually.

--Dan

[normy360]

Don't listen to that dumb Boba. He was the one sitting in the kitty! :roll:

Novass, I'm up in San Francisco. The photo by the water is actually at the Ferrari of SF dealership in Mill Valley. The race track is Sears Point aka Infineon Raceway in Sonoma. It was taken at the recent FCA track event during the Ferrari Challenge weekend.

[novass]

I was thinking Northern Cal from yours and Bobas posts by the looks of the pics. Those seats look really nice and I love the color of the interior/exterior, not the usual combo I see on 360s but it looks really nice.

Beautiful car.

[Vansquish]

Sheesh what a terrible car...all sparkly blue...leathery...carbonfibery....can't...stand...

Beautiful. I've always like the 360 in Dark Metallic Blue, and man do those seats look good. Congrats on a most excellent ride :-)

I'm really glad to see that your car and your buddy's get driven too, it's very important that sports cars be enjoyed on the road/track as they are meant to be rather than be show queens.

[yg60m]

LOL, nice to see on the same day two topics : "My 360 Modena" and "My 550 Maranello" , welcome aboard mates, your cars are superb :D

[bobafett]

YG: thanks for the warm welcome. Norm found your site and said the people here are cool, into cars and very hospitable / share a sense of camaraderie. What more can you ask for?

--Dan

[TT]

For either the 355 and 360 this color combo is the perfect one IMO! Or at least, dark blue if not the same identical one and tobacco interior!
And it's so cool in US were you can have just the real license plate!

Now what about this :D (same as posted in your 550 buddy ;)) I know it could sound "to much" since we asked for pics and pics came (both from you and from Norman), but since it's so rare to have other Ferrari owners beside a couple of ones :P around here, would it be possible to post a custom shot? Let's say front page of the owner manual with the tool kit beside it? it should take 5 min I think :D

I hope you could understand :D there are to many people just posting dealers pics (not your case) or pics taken at meeting or on other boards, pertending the cars are theirs ;) and to ask some more proof has to be the routine :D of course if you don't want to post the pic here in the topic you could simply PM it to me and Jabba.

Thanks and again, nice car :D

[stradale]

TT, it's ok. bobafett and normy360 are members of Fchat if I'm correct. They have meetings regularly, so I looked it up and it's all true.

Welcome Norman! :D We can never have too little owners of Ferraris here... I love your car. Like TT said, colour combination is perfect. I'd really love to see a video of it.

Enjoy your stay here!

Very likely yes, but we have to consider this: here on JW Ferrari owners are quite rare, so there is the risk that somebody else could try to steal boba's and normy's identities :D it's possible for sure. I'm not saying we don't trust them, not at all. Just wanting to be sure it's not somebody just pretending to be "them" :D

[budagboy2]

Nicccceeee, like the racing seats

[gis]

very nice car.the colour is very nice.i think thats the first time i seen one in that colour to be honest.anyway welcome to JW :D

[Anonymous]

Very nice car not the first colour i would have picked but I think it looks fantastic in that colour IMO! Interiors is neat too really goes with the colourscheme. Also what track is the third picture taken at out of interest?

*EDIT* Forgot to say Wlecome to Jabbasworld!! :lol: 8) i think you'll like it here

[callen]

welcome normy360. finally someone with my favorite car! i wish i could say ive been into cars since i could walk, but it was the 360 that caught my eye in 99 and got me on the ferrari wagon, ultimately very very much into cars as a whole! congrats on a wonderful ride, a terrific paint job and a 6 speed manual!!! 8) :D :P

[PATo355]

Cant see the pics but for the descriptions its a very good colour , Welcome to JW to both of us , and of course we want more pics , if stradale says you really have the cars then we trust you . sorry but too much bullshiters in the past time .

Now we have , 4 ferrari owners TT ?

[TT]

of course we want more pics , if stradale says you really have the cars then we trust you


We will wait for at least a custom shot before rushing to conclusions ;)

And yes Pato, that would make 4 official ones :D

[Chaos in 1983!]

I can't see the pics...but a 360 is a really sweet ride!!! welcome to JW!

[normy360]

TT, I definitely understand your concerns. BS'er really ruin my day too. I shall try to post those pics tonight. The lengths you go to maintain the integrity of this site is highly commendable. Excellent.

TT - the way this introduction went down, I was thinking this may just renew our faith in humanity. ;)

Out of the "blue" some awesome cars and owners arrive - and they're not BS'ers from hell - but a couple of genuine enthusiasts :)

The Fogo-connection is a difficult one to fake though - ;) -- I am imagining these guys are "the real McCoy"... but no harm in confirming... :P

[jon_s]

OMG, I think I have died and gone to heaven! Two genuine Ferrari owners joining the site! Thankyou both for basically doing everything TT has asked you to do, the amount of bullshitters we have had on here recently is beyond belief!

The blue you have on the 360 is simply stunning! Welcome.

TT, is there not another 355 owner? A yeallow one, in Malaysia :wink:

[TT]

Yes so far it was Jabba and him :D that makes two, with the new entries Dan and Norman, we doubled that value LOL! And not only the own supercars but they are damn kind lads too!

[jon_s]

What the hell just happened to my maths?! :shock: 2+2=4 :oops: oh dear, it has been a long day in the office.

Well, if he loves sc.net's atmosphere, I doubt he would spend his time here :roll:

[normy360]

One of my friend's did make a very short video with a camera hanging off the back of the car last yr. I'll contact him to see if there is any way we can get it to you guys.

I'm still at work, so I'll get those pics of the manual out this evening.

[666fast]

Wlecome to JW!

Thats a very nice car. The 360 hasn't always been my favorite, but it has grown on me. I now think it's a very good looking car. :lol:

[SFDMALEX]

Wow great car mate. The color combo is awesone. Very unique also, I dont think I ever saw anynother 360 with the same colors.

Welcome to JW!

[RC45]

What's a Fogo-connection?

Dan's reference to Fogo as a great eatery in Houston - was an obscure reference that leant credibility to y'alll...

[bobafett]

Andrew Menasce is here? He is a good friend of mine. I have met with his father a few times too. And i know Allan decently well too. Didn't know those guys were around here.

Norman's car is MEAN sounding. It's because of him that I have the CarGraphic exhaust on my car (stock maranello is a bit weak)

I let Dan beat me. It makes him feel better. :lol: I've had more women than him. I drive faster than him. I'm more handsome than him. So, it's a little thing to let him win here!! :)

[normy360]

Thanks Brembo and everybody else on this board. I'm glad to be part of this community. You guys seem quite knowlegable, and are definitely very welcoming and friendly. If any of you ever head to Northern California, let us know so Boba and I can organize a drive for you guys. We've done that when friends have visited from Southern Cal, Seattle and other parts of the country.

BTW, I sent the pics to TT as he was so gracious to offer to host them for me.

Don't do this kind of offers, otherwise you'll have all JW members right in your house in about 10 minutes, including me that I'm thousands of miles away!!!! :D :wink:

Nice to see such a kind new members here in JW! :D

Ill steal my mom's new E500 so I dont have to put miles on my car :twisted: :D

Ill let you guys know if we decide to go and see if you guys are gonna be cruising around and if we can stop by and check out your cars. :D

That pic could really become the standard whenever we have doubts ;)

Sadly not all the cars have a detachable toolkit/box.. in my car for instace it is attached into the trunk (on the "moving" part).. and you can't remove it, but well, a shot of the manual opened at page 5 on the truck could be easy for everybody :D

[gis]

yep indeed it could.it isnt a challenege if you own a digi camera :)

[yg60m]

Thank you for your patience and your kindness Norman and Dan, you are cool men !! Someone else could have been irritated and decided to leave but not you and i hope you will find enjoyment being in this community :wink:
Welcome again :D

[adlinyusman]

i've been away for 2 weeks and we have a mini ferrari club here at JW. Btw, nice seats on the 360, i know someone who has the exact colour interior for his 360 Spider, but he chose my fave colour (rosso scuderia) for his exterior. Le Mans is a nice colour on the Modena. How long did you have to wait for the car? I hear it's a two year waiting list over there. Did you get the Scuderia shields as well?

This weekend i'll be heading for a mini ferrari club gathering to watch the Imola GP (not AT Imola tho..lol). Will post pics of the event (if i remember to bring a camera).

[TT]

(if i remember to bring a camera).

Thanks. Some don't like the color combo though. Strange, eh? In fact, the leather lining the top of the dash board is a dark blue. Many like only the standard red/tan set, this allegation borne out by the overwhelming number of red-tan Ferrari's out there.

I bought the car second hand, so my wait only involved the patient appearance of the right color and option combo to appear. My friend is expecting a new one at the end of the month, and he's been waiting over a year. I think the dealers have stopped taking orders now because the new model is on the horizon. No scuderia shields, unfortunately. Would have loved to have them. Some have said to just stick them on, or put magnetic shields on. I've passed on those suggestions. The real shields are relatively substantial, and sit in an indentation in the fenders, and as such, can really only be ordered from the factory at the time of manufacture.

Please do remember to bring your camera to the Imola party. Wouldn't want TT to ban your ass! :shock: I'd love to see the pics.

Norm

[bobafett]

Norm, you actually bothered to take those shots?

--Dan

[TT]

LOL don't tell me he is so lazy that he had to ask somebody else to take the pics for him! :P

[normy360]

Dan isn't really lazy at all. He just has that special aura about him that prompts men and women to be at his every beck and call. Photo of his tool? Done. Photo of his tool box? Done. I'm so jealous.

[Jabba]

A liitle late I know Norman but welcome to Jabbasworld. Its great to have another Ferrari owner here....I am thinking of starting a dedicated section to Ferrari soon so I hope there will be plenty in there that you will find to be of interest.

Hope to see you around

Cheers

Jabba

[normy360]

Thank you, Jabba. You've got a great site here. I'll do my best to contribute and keep Dan in check for you!! :D

I guess both you and Dan are Star Wars fans! And Ferrari owners. What more could you ask for? Nice car by the way. A while back I considered selling the 360 for a 355 Fiorano, but in the end I stuck with the 360 because some racetracks have a policy of prohibiting the tracking of convertibles. You have a beautiful car, Jabba.

Well I must say the 360 has grown on me in recent months and yours sure is a lovely example and a nice change not being the usual rosso red.

[5.7 V10]

Very nice 360! Though i thought the color was called
"Tour De France Blue"

Anyways, the car is amazing. Nice interior color as well! Would be my choice!

[normy360]

Ferrari has many different blues such as California Blue, Hyperion Blue, Tour de France Blue, NART blue, Blue Le Mans, Pozzi Blue. BLue Le Man appears very similar to TdF Blue, but is a little more vibrant in my opinion.
