ARRGH!!! Of all the times to be without a camera! As I walked out of the restaurant tonight, I was delighted to spy, valet parked right in front of the entrance, a black/red 360 Spider, with the yellow Ferrari badges by the doors.... God, what a beautiful car. So I had to drive by slowly and pimp my own car. I wish I could have gotten a side-by-side picture of the two cars, much like John's with the yellow 355... Sigh.

Have they? I know some have been imported with a ridiculous premium, but I don't know if they're here for regular US consumption yet. That being said, man I'd give up my first 200k to have that car now!

You guys crack me up. Any type (From a classic 288 GTO to the F40/50 to a new 360 spider) of Ferrari is commonplace if your in the right area. For CA, the places are most of W. L.A. (Bel Air, Brentwood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, etc. or my neck of the woods S. Orange county, Newport Beach, Irvine, Laguna Beach/Niguel, etc. I'm sure you guys have one or two in your areas.

I was following a 355 spider last night(red). I pulled up next to it knew it was a ferrari but wasn't exactly sure what it was......im thinking why do I like that car so much. Upon closer inspection I found out why its the car I love. I just don't see them in person that often here in Connecticut.

I would love to pick up a 360 spider(my next dream car)....im driving my first.
