Even ferrying friends and dates around are much more civilised. I tend to think the F430 will ruin the chance of a perfectly good date due to the uncomfort plus the fact that I chaged my exhaust to Kreissieg Stage 5 doesnt help either. The F430 on the other hand is a head turner. Needless to say, it is a car that most would term as "poseur". I do tend to agree on why most people say it because most Ferrari drivers to do not drive it hard enough. Moreover, there was a horrific 599 GTO accident some months ago and there is not much "Ferrari" love around for the time being. But the car itself is a screamer, pretty quick for what it was though through the test of time isnt competitively quick to the newer cars. Nevertheless, the handling is much more flat than the M3. But pushing the car is a little scary because the tail snaps out almost immediately once handling limits are breached and it is quite a break sweat to wrestle the car back in control. It is fun though but you can't hold the pony by it's ears and think you've got everything in control. The shifts on the F430 are brutal and extremely engaging. Not quick like the DCT but filled with sensation. The Carbon Ceramics on the 430 is very good offering almost instant bite once it is warmed up sufficiently. The one thing that the F430 is extremely good at is that the cooling system of the car is extremely efficient. The car cools down very fast once it does get hot and on spirited driving in a humid and tropical place like Singapore, I have not seen oil temps cross 105 degrees celcius. For that reason; and that reason only. THE ///M3.
