I was lucky enough to see several 360 Spiders being built / test driven, when I toured the Ferrari Factory last fall and I was also able to see one at the 2000 Paris Auto Show. I believe that the first U.S. 360 Spiders are already on their way over here and some might have arrived. If you guys think the 360 Modena looks cool, wait until you see the 360 Spider in person. It is such a beautiful car and the roof mechanism is amazing. I think that the Spider version looks even better that the Modena, if that is possible. The lines on the Spider are done so well and it all just kinda flows together nicely. The flat glass engine cover is also pretty sweet. The 360 Spider is definately the most advanced convertible sportscar ever built. I believe it is worth the $185,000 price tag and the 3-4 year wait!
