That said, if I check in for my style transplant, I'll bring pictures of the F430 and Gallardo with me.
Not the Gallardo! That thing is too flat, I just don't like it.

Cars were ment to have curves and wonderful shapes, see, Ferrari has know this for a long time!

The Ferrari bug is biting........HARD. May be forced to add a 360 to the garage as prices become a bit more tolerable and definitely will be looking for a gently used 430 a few years down the road.
Check out this video F430
If it has problems running on media player you can down load the codecs here codecs

I seem to be in the minority. What else is new?

Absolutely love the F430!

Chazmo, Doug and I are going to "fix" you at SFII!
Well, if you're offering to give me an F430, I guess I would be amenable to that.

(I could sell it and buy a 360 and a few Ss )

Hey Chaz you're not alone. I'm not an especially big fan of Ferrari in general, and I don't like this one. I don't much like the Enzo either.

Keith, keep that gorgeous 360... Maybe I'll buy it off you in a few years if my ship ever comes in!
with Chazmo on this. The F430 lacks something in the way of curves and or angles that a Ferrarri "should have". It looks like something that Lexus would come up with to counter the NSX in terms of styling. Perhaps, a little too aerodynamic looking.

Note to Keith: I just hope that while I am waiting for my ship to come in, that my dock doesn't fall down!
