 The Ferrari Modena Spider was produced between 1999 and 2005 of which only about 8,800 Modena’s and 7,565 Spider versions of the car were produced, making it a very collectable car.  The Ferrari Modena Spider was an all aluminum car with a 400hp V-8 engine. It is said that the Ferrari Modena Spider was the 20th model of a convertible version Ferrari ever designed at that time. The convertible top came four basic colors; black, blue, grey, and beige. The Ferrari Modena Spider did not sport the typical flip up headlights that were very common on the previous Ferraris. The Ferrari Modena Spider could get a top speed of 189 mph and could do 0-60 in 4.2 seconds

 

For the Modeler: Revell has released a few model kits of the Ferrari Modena Spider. I have found four versions released by Revell however I am sure there could be more. The four versions out there are; Revell 7388 Ferrari Modena (2001), Revell 7389 Ferrari Modena Spider 000b (2001 and molded in yellow), Revell 2365 Revell Ferrari Modena Spider (2002) and Revell 07085 Revell Ferrari Spider (2012 and a Skill Level 3). This is the Revell kit 2365 that is 1: 24 scale, and a Skill Level 2. Revell released this kit before in 2001 (the earliest I found during my research)  and now Revell brings it back in 2012.The pieces are molded in white, chrome, clear, black vinyl tires with water slide decals. There are 69 pieces to this kit and very well laid out instructions. The dimensions are; 7-1/4” L X 3-5/8” W X 1-7/8” H.
