As a moderator in training I take issue with you asking for rep... I've been neg repped by mods for something that could have been suggestive of asking for rep...
Srsly?
@ Barrister - Did you really mention "Reliability" as a PRO for a Ferrari????

I added the following section. It is below for those who have already read the guide.

Why a 360 Modena?
Many people ask why I purchased a 360 Modena over an F430. Well, I love the F430. It makes me swoon. But it is kind of like the girl in high school who you don't feel worthy to date! I love the look of the 360 Modena maybe even a bit better than the F430. But the F430 has the 360 licked in terms of performance. I think that the 360 is a great first Ferrari. It is a great introduction to the brand along with its quirks and gremlins.
But the primary reason I decided on the 360 Modena was because I think they are fully depreciated. The F430 still has some depreciation left in it until its replacement debuts. Thus the deals are not quite as good on the F430. I think that if you can afford the F430, you should probably do it. Getting 80 more bhp and a chain system rather than a belt system (more on that below) is well worth it. But if you are looking for the best deal out there on a Ferrari right now, the 360 Modena is it.
I see myself keeping the 360 Modena for a year or so and then likely moving on to an F430. I can't wait!!
Excellent work Dana. Seriously worthy of publication my friend.
