From what I hear, all these European exotics cost and arm and a leg to service,not to mention when something breaks, but I guess if you got the $$$$ to buy the car, then you can get it serviced.
I would personally take a Lexus LFA and call it a day.
If I was going the Euro route, than probably a Noble M600 or a Koenixsegg

Ferrari's are expensive
Friend of mine has a son that managed a Ferrari dealership. The place was full of them, many were on consignment because the owners had had enough of the required maintenance. Oh and maintenance, people who own these things have a lot of money and are not mechanically inclined.
Pretty cars and very sexy, but what POS's. A swear they reminded me of an upgraded Fiat. They rode like a go cart, were hard to shift, were not comfortable and I simply could not believe how over rated they were.
I suppose that in the right hands they are fast, but not in my hands. The F is a much better car and few Ferrari's are faster.

Ferrari maintenance and reliability nightmares have been drastically reduced since the f430, 575m and obviously the other models that followed were released in the mid 2000's.
Much like some of the higher end bikes used to be. Ducati used to be a nightmare cost hog. Now, not so much.

Not sure about the 360 (though I think it would be similar) but my F355 ran 12.6 @114. First pass I made in the car.
Stock other than high flow cats and Capristo muffler. They are high strung so needs to be shifted at redline to get the most out of it. (I shift at 8700, just before the limiter)
