Not driving (sadly) but one of the observers in my IAM group brought his 360 Spider this evening and took me for a run in it. I dont know what speed we got too, but boy did we get there *quickly*. It was like having your face peeled off.

Hed replaced the standard exhaust system with a Tubi sports exhaust and that thing was loud all the time, but when you pressed the go pedal it screamed. Nothing like a V8 10 inches behind your head being worked hard.

Good times, thoroughly recommended.

Was he actually doing a demo drive or just going for a blast?

Hed have to obey the highway code if he was doing a demonstration.

Nah, just for a blast. I imagine a demo drive in a Ferrari would be the most frustrating thing ever

Ive driven my uncles 575 a few times - has 2600 miles on it, and has been back to base 11 times so far for really stupid faults.

They sound fantastic, which I think gives a good impression of speed, and throttle response is excellent as its na - looking forward to pasting them in 11ks worth of jap scrap

You need to let me have a go in your 2 when all the works done

no probs!

Id much rather have a tuned jap machine than a ferrari anyday

Aye, even if you can find faster, theres nothing quite like the style and sophistication of driving a true supercar. Surely youve driven a few in your time Jaimz?

Id take tuned jap scrap over any supercar also
