I have a ferrari 360 with 21600 miles, ever since I bought it, the battery dies/must be replaced if I let the car sit for over 10 days.I have found that the only way to avoid buying a new battery every 10 days is to pop the hood and turn the power knob to off, if its going to be sitting that long. If I drive the ferrari every few days for 6 months, thers no problem. Just when it sits for 10 days or over. Any suggestions?
