    Hey guys,

    Finally it has arrived!!!

    I noticed there was no LC button... is that normal for f430's in canada? Also the dealer said that the car is already broken in.... no need to go easy on it?

    I was also wondering what other owners here use: 91 Octane V-power from shell or Sunoco 94?

    Pics for now!!

    Congratulations. Beautiful car.
    US spec F430s come without the "Launch Control" option. Only Euro spec F430s have it as standard.
    Ferrari engines are already broken in at the factory. Just whip that horse and enjoy the thrill ;).

    All Ferrari engines are broken in on a dyno at the factory so no worries about driving her hard.

    Thanks for the comments guys.
    Ive been driving the car around for past 2 days, and im sure i dont have to tell you guys the pleasure from driving it..Its just amazing. The only comparison i can do is against the M6 .... the F kills it in every aspect. BUT The extra precautions that you have to take while driving this beast on normal roads takes away some of the fun... i know its main purpose is on the track. The M6 was amazing because it had similar performance.. yet driveable on most roads.

    its a 750Li, they certainly are amazing cars. Would definitely recommend it as the family sedan.

    Lovely! Congrats! I use only the sunoco stuff.

    I think your old car is still for sale - or at least it was last time I checked.

    Stick with Sunoco 94. I also have the M6 Cabrio as a daily driver, they compliment each other very nicely. Enjoy it in good health.

    The carbon bits look very nice, especially that steering wheel! How long did the order process take? Your timing was perfect; just in time for spring.
