Alright, I'm gonna play the devil's advocate here for a moment. What if this was a 360 that got wrecked for some reason or another, and this guy decided that instead of letting it go to the crusher and become a 1 meter cube of expensive Italian sheetmetal, he'd give it a new lease on life and turn it into a limo. That's quite possible, especially if the car was t-boned, or something of the sort. |

Now the Italian supercar-maker is threatening to take legal actions against the British owner of the world’s fastest limousine, a modified 360 Modena that can go up a top speed of 166mph – 267 km/h. According to reports, Dan Cawley, 36, of Cheadle, Manchester, has 14 days to remove all prancing horse badges, Ferrari names and “360 Modena” symbols from the 6m (20ft) supercar-limo. “What kind of precedent does it set when you can’t do what you like with your own property?” asked Mr Cawley. Ferrari’s lawyers support that since Mr Cawley cut the 360 Modena in half and inserted a 3m (9.5ft) section of hand-built carbon fibre, the car is no longer a Ferrari, so he has to remove the badges and logos or else he’ll face legal action for infringing the Ferrari trademark.
