Drive a Ferrari 360 Modena With a Ferrari Driving Experience Gift

With a price tag well out of the reach of most, the dream of driving a Ferrari is exactly that, a dream. There are however, ways to make that dream come true. If you really want to drive a Ferrari without having to take out a second mortgage you could always take a look at a Ferrari driving experience. Driving experience gifts give you or your loved one the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the awesome Ferrari 360 Modena, on a real racetrack, with a qualified instructor by your side.

The Car

Built as a replacement to the awesome Ferrari F355 - regarded as one of the most beautiful and usable Ferrari's ever made - the Ferrari 360 Modena certainly had a lot to live up to, it couldn't just be good, it needed to be fantastic and in most opinions, it's exactly that, fantastic. With an all new, all aluminium chassis, the drive in the Ferrari 360 Modena was appreciably stiffer than the 355 and with the weight savings made, a good bit quicker. Power comes from Ferrari's most powerful normally aspirated V8, 3586 cc's produce 400 brake horsepower. Drive the 360 to its limit and it will accelerate from 0 - 60 miles per hour in just 4.5 seconds, keep your foot firmly planted to the floor and you will top out at a staggering 183 miles per hour. But it's not just the speed, when you drive a Ferrari, it's the noise as well, drive the V8 above 4000 revs and the engine note changes from a growling crackle to a full blown wail, a noise that makes the hairs stand up on the back of your neck.

Drive on a race track or drive on an aerodrome

Ferrari driving experiences are generally held on two types of venues, you either drive on a real racetrack or drive on an aerodrome. Whilst the aerodrome offers the opportunity to drive a Ferrari fast, most feel that the place to drive a Ferrari is on the track. On the track, the Ferrari really comes to life, you experience not only the awesome acceleration, but you also get to feel how the Ferrari drives in the environment it was built for.

The Drive Experience

Upon arrival at the circuit you will have a 15 minute briefing on what your Ferrari driving experience will involve including all aspects of your safety. After that it's off to the track where a qualified racing driver will accompany you for four miles in a Mini Cooper S, teaching you the racing lines of the circuit and showing you how to get the best out of your Ferrari drive. After the familiarisation it's time to climb into the Ferrari for the drive of your life. With six miles in the unforgettable Ferrari 360 Modena in front of you, the instructor will be by your side to ensure you get the most out of your drive. This experience will leave you grinning from ear to ear for hours after.

Driving experience companies offer a wide range of supercars for you to drive, although most people choose to drive a Ferrari, you can drive a Lamborghini, drive an Audi R8, drive a V8 Touring car, in fact you can drive just about any supercar you choose.

Delonghi 3300 - The Ferrari of Coffee Machines

If you want to be a bit of a show off and have nothing but the best of kitchen appliances then you best add the Delonghi 3300 to your list. This is a machine for the serious coffee lover, and not the faint of heart when it comes to price tags! When it comes to functionality you are very hard pushed to find a better machine from a brand you can trust like Delonghi.

Because it is an Italian designed appliance you know that it is going to be sleek and stylish with all the functionality of a Ferrari. This stainless steel machine will make any kitchen look great and it will not take up a great amount of counter space, either. It's not a lightweight when it comes to the sturdiness and weighing in a t 27 pounds, you couldn't accuse it of being flimsy. This is a handsome machine that makes coffee better than the best of the coffee houses.

Set the timer for your coffee to be ready to be brewed first thing in the morning, or when you walk in the door after a hard day at work. The Delonghi 3300 comes with a timer that will even turn itself off after sitting idle for three hours. Although, I cant imagine that the machine would sit for so long without someone taking advantage of the fresh, rich brews that the Delonghi 3300 will produce.

Coming with its own coffee grinder you are guaranteed the freshest coffee each time. Other coffee machines will grind the coffee and it will sit and spoil throughout the day until you are ready to use them. Not the Delonghi 3300. You will have nothing but that freshly ground taste every time you are ready to indulge in a cup.

The Delonghi 3300 is certainly an expensive machine but when it comes to a superior product from a world leader in brands, the Delonghi 3300 is more of an investment in good taste.
