Well my girl now (at the time we just started hitting it off) really didn't care too much about the ferrari. I think MOST girls just dont appreciate cars like we do. anyways we took it down the shore about a nice 2 hour drive. The looks I was getting as a 22 year old in a red f430 spyder
ANYWAYS. This car is an ABSOLUTE animal! I've driven M5's and other fast cars before. The HANDLING of the F430 is beyond describable. ALSO that Italian V8 sounds better than ANY V8 i've heaard. The ONLY thing I disliked about the F430 is that its still a single cluth tranny. I believe the new 458 italia comes with tru dual cluth like my DCT M. Other than that this car by far the best thing I've ever driven/heard. HIGHLY RECOMMENED DRIVING or even purchasing
