360 Spider Debut Confirmed For Geneva
3.2.00

The all-new Ferrari 360 Spider will make its international début at the Geneva Motor Show on Tuesday 29th February 2000. The car will be presented by Ferrari's President, Luca di Montezemolo, at 12.30 hrs on the Ferrari stand.

The all-aluminium 360 Spider is the result of nearly five years of intensive research and design. The 360 Spider will line up alongside the berlinetta version that was launched at the 1999 Geneva Motor Show, exactly a year ago, and which received world-wide acclaim.

Styled by Pininfarina, it is one of the fastest and most powerful Ferrari Spiders ever produced in Maranello and has a fully-automatic electric hood that folds away into the bodywork.

Powered by a normally aspirated 400 hp, 3.6-litre, V8 in 90° configuration, all aluminium engine, the 360 Spider will be offered with the second-generation of the highly successful F1-type six-speed longitudinal gearbox, as well as the conventional manual transmission.

With the Spider, the Ferrari range will comprise of 4 models: the two 12-cylinders front engine and rear-wheel drive 456M GT/A and 550 Maranello; and the two 8-cylinders mid-engined 360 Modena and the 360 Spider. Deliveries for the Spider will start this Summer.
