The car was specd with the highly desirable gated 6-speed manual transmission, now a collector item among Ferrari enthusiasts. The Ferrari was also specd with the Rear Challenge Style Black Grille, Scuderia Ferrari Shields on Fenders, Brake Calipers in Red Color, and a 6-Disc CD Changer. During the 360 Modenas life, a stainless steel Tubi Style exhaust system was installed, allowing for the Ferrari V8s power to go up an estimated 3-5%, plus with an intoxicating exhaust note. The 360 found its longtime caretaker in the form of a Los Altos, California resident, who would go on to own the Ferrari for almost 20 consecutive years. The Los Altos owner, a mechanic and an owner of his own workshop, came over from Germany in 1952 in order to find more suitable work for himself. Landing in a Chevrolet dealership first in the midwest, he eventually traveled west and landed in the town of Los Altos where he opened his own mechanic shop. Having owned many Porsches over the years, he mentioned that he wanted to experience what made Ferraris special. He purchased this 360 Modena in October of 2005 and added just over 17,000 miles in his 20-year ownership. Upon arriving at Canepa, the 360 Modena was thoroughly inspected both mechanically and cosmetically. As a part of the Canepa Difference process, the Ferrari is scheduled to complete a comprehensive mechanical servicing (including belts) and for the installation of a new set of high performance Michelin Pilot Sport tires. The Ferrari was treated to a comprehensive detailing that included a full multi-stage foam pad polishing of the Rossa Corsa paint, along with the interior receiving a full detailing, completing the Ferraris Canepa Difference process. Included in the sale of this Ferrari 360 Modena are its Ferrari books, tool kit, 2 keys, flat tire kit, and flashlight. With 6-speed manual transmissions becoming rarer and rarer each year, and considering that Ferrari themselves do not make a manual transmission car today, only accents the prestige and coveting of the Ferrari 360 Modena. With a classic 6-speed gated transmission, an intoxicating exhaust note from its naturally aspirated 3.6L V8 engine made in Italy, and visuals that have only appreciated over the last couple of decades, this 2000 Ferrari 360 Modena is made for the driver to enjoy the driving experience, while also looking the part too.
