Good afternoon all,

Hope all is good! In my perceived wisdom, I have been having dark thoughts about a 360 Spider. They seem to be getting better looking with age and hey ho you only live once!

I have seen the vehicle below and was hoping to gather some feedback/opinions on the car? Anybody know of it...

All comments good or bad welcome.

All the best

Each to his own but that interior looks like the intestines hanging around in the aftermath of a very bad roadkill have been used as part of the seats to me. I couldn't look at it without at least half a bottle of gin in me and that wouldn't be ideal.

Also, the grey colour (Grigio Titanio?) isn't one of the best for the 360 - again only in my view.

But it is manual and you can always re-skin the seats (or dig your eyes with a spoon out so you can't see them) and you could always wrap it if you desired a colour change, or leave alone if grey is OK for you.

I must confess the interior is a massive negative, what was the original owner thinking! Thank you for the comments. I am aware mileage is a killer on these cars, however, the values for these seem to be all over the place. Is the perception of advertised price vs. sale price that wide?

FWIW I really like that colour combination. The interior is a bit shiny though...

It's certainly an acquired taste.

Wow, I've got a pimp from the 70's on the phone who wants the chairs for his camero back.

Coupling it with a VAG tdi resale grey exterior though, just makes it some kind of ultra clash car that has no idea what it wants to be

Although you always buy on condition. The interior is a big negative. Changing it. Which most of us would want to do, still takes it away from delivery spec. This as you look at a young Ferrari tends to be an issue. The exterior colour I like, but that's personal taste. No getting away from the mileage, unfortunately it is higher than you would want, but they are playing on the manual gearbox.
At the price they are pitching you'd get an F1 in better spec lower mileage, without a trip over the water too.
Not cheap, higher mileage than you'd hope at that price. Spec that'll put off all unless colour-blind.......but it is a manual

The interior as others have said.

Regarding getting an F1 car, I'm not sure I'd want to sink that sort of money into an F1 - I've always felt the box was only acceptable from 430 onwards, or unless you do some fiddling with the TCU (?) to make it more like a CS.

Seeing these prices makes it tempting to sell and move to a 458. Mine is under 40k miles and I wouldn't want more than that much for it!

What has happened with the values of 360's! Why have they shot up even on undesirable colour combinations and high mileage. I swear i was looking at 360's at around £40k a few years ago...

I think he's used a lens filter to make the photos cool but its made the car a lot darker than reality, Grigio Titano is much lighter in reality a friend of mine has one. The seat centres only need replacing and then it starts to look a bit better I think, but he's negotiable on price by the sounds of things.

Thank you all for the comments. Looks like it may be one to miss.

I see Mike Brown definitely doesn't like it (sorry couldn't resist...)
