I'm still undecided tho - which is better? 360 or 430? Can't decide (not that it matters, I can't afford either )

I'd have the 360CS version over the F430

Anyone tell me what the 'CS' stands for again, I like it that much i've forgot! I think it 'Challenge Stradale' or something like that isn't it?

Was pretty sexy. kept on saying how much better it was than everything else - but GT3 porker lapped quicker, and the RS version is pretty special imo

Those Ferrari's were absolutely stunning

Have to be red though in my eye's. A Ferrari in any other colour just doesn't quite look right to me

What would you rather have though, porker that looks pretty much to everyone else like a porker with a tiny bit extra that most would be hard pushed to get out of it, or a Ferrari. Know what I'd have

Yellow and Black one's look good on certain models, I also saw a 550 in Green once, looked soooo sweet!

Bet the guy who ordered that had big nuts, to walk into a Ferrari showroom and order it in Green!

Really hard question to be honest - if have to have the money in my hand to make the decision. But, i think i'm a proper petrol head - and havent got Ferrari blinkers - ie tend more to look for engineering merit than the badge. So porka has to be a contender

No blinkers, hence the M3 and no RST

Lol, EIL RST still exist as such, but only as a shell in the garage. Know what you mean though, but night and day comparison overall

I must admit that if I had the chance I would jump straight into an E36 M3 over an RST anyday, it's madness in my eye's not to!

But would still have a Ferrari over a Porsche, I know personally if I see a Porka i'm like 'thats nice', but if I see a Ferrari out and about I can't stop looking until its gone and am like 'Thats totally fookin rude'! lol

this is the only one ive seen,,, letters of intent have been taken,, people in the know are saying maybe 2 years before it will be out but im sure after the 360 cs sales went mad,, i think it will be sooner
