The Ferrari 360 is the name given to three models of Ferrari cars: the Ferrari 360 Modena, an enclosed two-door coupe; the Ferrari 360 Spider, a two-door convertible; and the Ferrari Challenge Stradale, the bare-bones version of the 360 Modena. The Ferrari 360 Modena has a 3.6 litre V8 engine producing 400bhp+ and accelerating from 0-62mph in 4.3 secs. All have eight-cylinder engines and aluminum chassis. The 360 was generally well-received. However, some reviewers criticized its handling at the limit as twitchy, similar to its predecessors (the 348 & F355). One real world example of this was when footballer Ian Wright crashed his 360 with a mistimed downshift while slowing down on an uphill road. The 360 also served as the basis for its replacement, the Ferrari F430 (internally reffered to as the evoluzione or evo) which came out in 2004.
