They sure are collectible, good luck finding one in this country though. The one in that ad is probably 1 of a handful in the country in that condition :)

Check this guys youtube channel out he collects microcars and has quite a few 360's: http://www.youtube.com/user/2stroketurbo/videos

the 360 was basically a copy of the beetle. the advertising was even the same as the beetle "cheap and ugly"

Did a bit of a search on the 360, apparently there were 72 originally imported into Australia, can't say I've ever seen one, but I shall keep an eye open

I saw one for sale on ebay ages ago, engine was seized and body was about 40% rust :???: No interior either. Still went for a fair bit though.
