The seller offers for sale this 2001 Ferrari 360 Modena, powered by a 3.6-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine, paired with an F1 automated manual transmission. This Berlinetta reads 131,500 km and has been on Dutch registration in private hands since 2007, first used daily and, from 2018 onwards, kept as a collector’s item. Invoices documenting its history are present, and the car is offered as a rewarding example of Ferrari’s landmark aluminium-era V8.
Launched in 1999, the 360 Modena marked a turning point for Ferrari as the first of its V8 road cars to use an all-aluminium space-frame chassis and body, developed together with Alcoa. Compared with the F355 it replaced, the 360 was larger, lighter and considerably stiffer, and its Pininfarina styling broke with tradition by abandoning the pop-up headlights of its predecessors in favour of a smoother, more aerodynamic form with distinctive twin air intakes at the nose. The Modena name paid tribute to the town at the heart of Ferrari’s history, and the model went on to become one of Maranello’s most successful cars, paving the way for the F430 that followed.
At the heart of the 360 Modena sits a 3.6-litre naturally aspirated V8 mounted amidships, visible beneath the glass engine cover and paired here with Ferrari’s F1 automated manual gearbox operated by steering-column paddles. The naturally aspirated V8 is celebrated for its free-revving character and evocative soundtrack, delivering the kind of engaging, high-revving experience that defines the breed. With its aluminium construction, mid-engined balance and unmistakable Pininfarina lines, the 360 Modena remains a hugely desirable modern classic and an accessible entry into V8 Ferrari ownership.
This particular example is finished in red and combines its documented Dutch history with the appeal of a car that has been cherished as a collectible in recent years. It presents as an honest driver-quality Ferrari that offers the full sensory experience of a naturally aspirated mid-engined V8.
