Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- The excitement of piloting a powerful, mid-engined Ferrari, a choice of berlinetta (coupe) or spider (convertible) body styles.
Cons
- Supply versus demand equals acquisition price way north of sticker, a bit wide for tight spaces.
What’s new
The superb 360 Modena is unchanged for 2002.
Edmunds says
More proof that nobody does exotics better than the men in Maranello.

Vehicle overview
The beauty of prodigious power in a strong, yet light chassis is not lost on Ferrari. Witness the 360 Modena, which makes extensive use of aluminum in the chassis, suspension components and body panels for reduced weight with increased rigidity. A Pininfarina-penned body not only catches the eye, but provides downforce at higher speeds without having to resort to tacky spoilers and wings.
The Spider features a power top that hides under a sleek, hard tonneau cover when down. Raising and lowering the top is an automatic affair that takes just 20 seconds either way. Reinforced floorpans and bulkhead areas, along with roll hoops, ensure that the Spider is structurally sound. And there's no need to worry about any significant loss in performance should you opt for the ragtop 360 -- the Spider weighs just 130 pounds more than its coupe sibling.
Compared to its predecessor, the F355, the 360 has a more accommodating cockpit, due to the car's larger dimensions. This is great for providing more comfort and luggage capacity, though in tight situations, such as when maneuvering through city traffic, the 360's greater width is apparent.
Suspension is achieved through a proven upper and lower A-arm design that makes use of aluminum for lighter weight and a more controlled ride. A dash switch can alter the suspension's settings for a stiffer ride on weekend track days.
The heart of this Ferrari is a 3.6-liter V8 engine that makes 400 horsepower and 276 pound-feet of torque, which allows the Modena to reach 60 mph in a little over 4 seconds. High-tech items like dual intake runners and a two-stage muffler help to keep the V8 civilized under normal driving conditions while allowing it to scream when your right foot calls for such action. Top speed hovers around 180 and the use of wind tunnel testing during development ensures that the slippery body also creates effective downforce at elevated speeds.
Supple leather, accented by brushed aluminum, complements the 360's roomy interior, where, in the coupe, even a set of golf bags can be squeezed behind the two multi-adjustable high-back bucket seats. Large gauges and a thoughtful center stack design contribute to the car's sense of purpose and luxury.
Order your 360 with the standard gated six-speed manual transmission or the high-tech, clutchless F1 tranny that features shift paddles mounted on the steering wheel. The F1 tranny works with the 360's electronic throttle control to offer quicker, cleaner shifts than can be made by most skilled drivers.
All 360s come with stability control that uses both ABS and electronic brake distribution to keep the car in check during inclement weather or spirited driving. Brakes are by Brembo and feature large rotors residing behind massive 18-inch wheels shod with Z-rated tires.
Is there a better vehicle in terms of sheer performance, refinement and sex appeal? Maybe, but we aren't aware of it.

A magnificient, but unreliable beauty
ScuderiaF1, 08/22/2008
2002 Ferrari 360 Spider 2dr Convertible (3.6L 8cyl 6M)
Stalled the first day I had it. Engine warning light came on second day. After a week the "Slow Down" warning light came on and it would occasionally not start...unless you had someone rock the car back and forth while you tried to get the transmission in to neutral using the paddles. It has been in the service garage longer than my own garage. It's under an extended warranty. It is an … absolutely gorgeous piece of art though and it converted me (a Lamborghini enthusiast) to Ferrari when I saw it at the dealership. It is the most beautiful looking Ferrari in my opinion - better looking than the newer F430. The sound is great also. The glass hood over the engine is a nice touch.

2001 Ferrari 360 Spider 2dr Convertible (3.6L 8cyl 6M)
Having owned Porsches all my adult life
even though Ferraris were available,
the 360 Spider with F1 trans was a car
to drive everyday as the Porsche. The
hard part to find one. I finally
acquired one and it has been a ball.
Sitting still the car moves people and
on the highway it moves the driver. The
Tubi exhaust gives you that added plus
going through the underpasses … and
tunnels, takes it right to Monte Carlo
and F1 races.

Much better than the 355 and 550.
