Description About Yellow Ferrari 360 Modena on hill

The 360 Modena was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1999 as a replacement of the highly acclaimed F355. To meet this challenge, Ferrari opted for revolution over evolution. The 360 Modena was the first Ferrari road car to sport both an aluminum body and aluminum space frame. The result of this almost total use of aluminum is a 28% reduction in weight vs the F355 while providing over 40% increase in structural stiffness. To achieve this engineering feat, Ferrari set up a partnership with Alcoa Aluminum to develop the new technology and processes.

The 360 Modena also marks a significant shift in styling from the F355 towards a single minded focus on aerodynamics. The smooth flowing lines of the 360 hide the fact that it is a significantly larger car than the F355. It is the first Ferrari to drop the classic nose mounted radiator grill, with the twin radiators now mounted in the wheel arches. The radical redesign allows for the inclusion of a large luggage space in the front while delivering a unique visual impression. The focus on aerodynamics delivers high speed downforce more than four times greater than generated by the F355, giving the 360 both great control and maneuverability. While the radical redesign did improve the car’s performance, it did result in what was termed a un-Ferrari-like flamboyant design.

Many journalist criticized Pininfarina when the car debuted and a number of people still feel the same today. The 360 also received a larger, completely revised engine. The Tipo F131B with capacity increased to 3586 cc. Power was up to 400bhp with improvements in both mid and low range torque. That is an incredible 112 bhp per liter. The engine revisions included larger valves, variable phase timing for the exhaust valves, and improvements in the combustion chambers. However, the most significant change was the incor-
poration of a new variable geometry system which independently manages both cylinder banks. This magnificent engine is displayed beautifully beneath a glass cover on the rear deck.

What kind of numbers did this wonderful new engine produce? For starters a 0-60 mph time of 4.2 seconds with the F1 gearbox. The manual gearbox is not noticeably slower and clocks in at 4.4 seconds for the same jump to speed. The 360 will top out at 186 mph at 8500 rpms. Hopefully you will get a chance to experience this on the track or autobahn.

One year after the 360 Modena launch, the 360 series was extended with the introduction of the 360 Spider. The 360 Spider was part of the original design brief and it maintains the clean rounded curves of the Berlinetta. The impact on downforce generation is minimal and the Spider only weights 60 kg more than its closed top sibling. As per the Modena, the glass engine cover is retained on the Spider.
