yeah, I saw the one with the Viper, I wanted it but couldn't get it.  All I saw was the Buggatti EB110, Porsche 959 and Jaguar XJ220 for sale. Oh yeah, you forgot to mention that the $119,000 BMW Z8 is located in Germany so they don't have to pay any high tax, export/import fees, and they may not be legal on American Roads. I saw the ad, it has a 959 for $235,000, a new Diablo for $199,000 and a 360 Spyder for $219,000. It's the one with the castle in the background right? * Correction, the price of the 360 Spyder in a previous post was wrong, it is actually $349K, Asking of course.

I would definately go with the 360...have you ever heard one being revved up to redline? Its beautiful.
The Z8 is really nice (smoothest shift linkages I have ever felt) but I just couldn't bring myself to take a BMW over a Ferrari

I'm a bimmer man... my first car was a 733i... my friends all drove bimmers... we were practically a club. Both cars are great, but I gotta say I'd take the 360 modena on this one.... but then, for a little more I could get a mosler.... hmmmm

I'd go for the BMW Z8. Seeing as I will never find myself racing such a car on a track, I am thinking about real world usage. In the real world, both have essentially the same performance and the same handling. I find the Z8 more personal, a car I could connect to more.
The real selling point for me on the Z8 is its interior. It has to have the most stunning upholestry design I have ever seen. Beyond that, the hand manufactured aluminum nobs are to die for. I would rather find myself sitting in that cockpit any day before the 360. Finally, the rear end of the Z8 is the best in the business, regardless of price. I have never seen a more artfully executed rear (on a car ) in my life.

performance wise, you can't really compare these cars fairly. they are built for different reasons. looks, thats another story. both have beautiful parts to them. i, too, am a bimmer man, but i would take the ferrari. i would gladly take the Z8 though. hey, why do some people put "F's" in front of some of the ferrari cars. like... F360, F456, etc.... whats the dealio?? just a special way of saying 360 and 456???

360 for me. Would prefer the Modena, but I won't split hairs...
You know that James Bond would pick the BMW (now!  Maybe he'll go back to Aston... right!), but he'd bang any Italian he could he his hands on.
