Engine does not come out on 360 belts. It has an access panel behind the seats.

Ferrari makes their money not on the sale of the car, but on the maintenance!
I had a cousin that had a 575 Maranello, and it literally stayed at the dealership for maintenance.
Adjusting the valves, etc...When he had the opportunity to unload it ,it was gone.
And he never bought another Ferrari even though he can afford it.
People buy these cars because of their exclusivity, so why don't they keep them?
Short answer, their expensive as hell to maintain.

From what I have read, the 360 is one of the most unreliable Ferrari's produced.
I think that is actually backwards. The 360 was the first of the 'daily driver' Ferraris. It actually is cheaper to run, and more reliable to drive than the F355 before it, and pretty much every other Ferrari before that. There are 360s running around with 50k, 60k, 70k miles and more with limited issues. Plus, getting the manual transmission keeps costs low there, as the F1 transmission requires more frequent service work.

Kreissieg exhausts are ridiculous they make a tubi sound tame, personally i think they are more suited to 360's whereas the tubi is better for the 430 keeps the deeper note....i dont think there is a better sight than seeing a ferrari at WOT spitting flames

Im not sure about that - this is very common for 430's to do even with a stock exhaust - due to the very short length of the exhaust from the engine - mine was almost like that and it had tubi with straight pipes - god its a pretty sight!
