A 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider with about 39,000 miles on the odometer, a documented ownership history and recent mechanical work is offered for sale through an online auction.
By Edward Beaumont · 4 min read
A 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider, delivered new in Texas and later moved to Alberta, Canada, is being offered for sale with an odometer reading of about 39,000 miles. The mid-engined convertible is presented with a detailed service history and a list of recent mechanical work, which the seller has put forward as the main reasons for the car's appeal to buyers.
The car was delivered new to Ferrari of Houston, with a window sticker showing a suggested retail price of $179,000. It was relocated to Alberta in 2008, and the current seller bought it in 2015. It is offered with Alberta registration in the seller's name. A Carfax report shows no accidents or significant damage, although it notes a mileage inconsistency recorded in 2015 that may be a clerical error. Roughly 14,000 miles have been added during the current ownership.
The 360 is powered by a 3.6-litre mid-mounted V8 with a flat-plane crankshaft and dry-sump lubrication. Factory output is 400 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. The car uses a six-speed F1 sequential transaxle with a limited-slip differential. The seller says the transmission's hydraulic pump was upgraded in 2025, and a custom exhaust has been fitted, although the exact specification of that system is not detailed.
Recent maintenance is extensive. In 2026, Hill Engineering tensioners and belts were installed, and cam-end gaskets, spark plugs and filters were replaced. The fuel pump, fuel lines and fuel-gauge sender have also been renewed, and the air conditioning was serviced and recharged. Brake fluid and power-steering fluid were changed in 2025. The braking system itself was overhauled in 2022, with new pads, rotors and lines, and the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tyres were replaced in 2021.
The aluminium body was designed by Pininfarina and is finished in Argento Nurburgring paint. The front bumper was repainted by a dealer in 2011, and paint-protection film has been applied to the bumper, mirrors, intakes and windscreen. The seller notes chips on the lower side intakes and on the bonnet above the bumper, along with wear on the undersides of the rocker panels and scrapes on the underside of the front bumper.
The car rides on 18-inch two-piece BBS alloy wheels. Inside, it has Nero leather upholstery and power Daytona-style seats. The interior was refreshed in 2020 to address sticky surfaces, and the cabin includes a CD stereo and automatic climate control.
Several items are included with the sale: a tool kit, manufacturer literature, spare parts, a car cover, a Ferrari duffel bag and a Ferrari-branded battery maintainer. The seller describes the maintainer's charging performance as weak. The battery was most recently replaced in November, although the year is not specified.
Some points remain unclear. The clutch was replaced under a previous owner in 2011, and the seller has not confirmed its current wear. The exhaust is described only as a "one-off" system. Prospective buyers are therefore likely to focus on these areas, alongside the documented history and the recent work, when assessing the car.
