    Finally I have it in my garage! What a fabulous car. The 6 speed manual and the carbon ceramics are awesome. The new sport seats are very comfortable. Such a drastically different car from my CS. Not as hard edged but easier to drive fast. Here are some pics.

    Big thanks to Evan and Brad @ Ferrari of SF and of course Kevin @ Cats Exotics for making the entire deal happen! :D

    Hi,

    Glad to see another 6 speeder. The seats in your car are the business - nice! The whole car looks fantastic. A 6 speed 430 and a Stradale - now that's a sweet garage!

    Congrats Josh, beautiful car. Did you finally sell the 360 CS? How does your 430 compare to the CS?

    Thanks Tony. The CS is still for sale. As for a comparison the CS is a race car adapted for the street. The 430 is more street car adapted for the track. Both are great but for a place with bad roads, hands down the 430.

    Great car. How did you decide on the manual ?
    I have a manual 6 speed 360 and have often wondered about a 430 and whether or not to go F-1 or manual.

    I realize the F-1 in the 430 is much improved, but still I like to shift my car.

    What did you consider when making your choice ?


    Regards,

    Stew

    honestly... I drove Prancing Horse's and AutoXer's 6 speed gallardo and 6 speed 360 spider respectively and really wanted a 3 pedal car again. I have no regrets especially after my first perfectly executed heel and toe today. :)
