Awsome cars! Wish I had any of them. But if I had the money... I would want to get the Lambo. I like the way it looks the best. Then the Audi, and last the F430. Not to say the F430 is bad, as it is my favorite Ferrari. Just my thoughts...
Tell your friend Good Luck! I hope he has fun dropping over 100 grand on a car!

I will mention this to my friend. He was leaning towards the F430 and kept saying they were pretty reliable.

Gallardo's have lost a lot of value as of late and I believe the current prices are pretty good. Even the lp560 at times can be found for 180k. They are solid cars.
Tan, that g looks SICK!

F430
Reasons:
-Its a FERRARI!
-It is the culmination of 60+ years of racing pedigree.
-Its RWD
-I think it sounds the best (subjective), most like an F1 car, mostly due to the superior
-Gearbox
-Probably best resale value.

Gallardo. Well built, v10 awd.
F430, torquey v8, expensive to maintain compared to the other 2
r8. r8 regular would be boring compared to the other 2. R8v10 would be so expensive the other 2 would be worth buying.
at the end of the day I'd get the Gallardo. I know a lot about Gallardo's and they can be daily driven unlike the ferrari.

Listen to this man. He's driven them.
Personally, I'd want to drive the Ferrari more than the other two, but only if I could afford to put 15-20k miles a year on it. And I know I can't. If I had way too much money, I'd pick it.
So I'd probably go with the Lamborghini, as the Audi R8 just doesn't strike me as an exotic like the Italians. Better than an expensive AMG, but similarly, it just doesn't have the same passion...
