    You know, 360s are ageing a lot better than 430s, IMO.

    Five years ago I would have said the opposite, but now I reckon the 360 looks significantly better.

    I agree..
    U always thought the 360 is not muscular enough compared to the 430. But I can only afford the 360. Once I have it I can see the simplicity of the design and the flowing lines. Much like 458 vs 488..
    Original pinnifarina lines are such a beauty (for oldies) younger generation may like the fussy look...

    I always preferred the look of the 360 compared to the 430...Guess that why I bought it rather than a 430...Never liked the rear on the 430 TBH...

    The 430 rear was polarising for sure.

    Anyone advise which state is better / easier to import a car into from overseas.
    Basically on a permanent residence visa.
    Thanks.

    Sign of a good design ..... some Ferraris age badly and other grow on you, like the 308GT4 has become a bit of a classic

    And then some start out magnificent and just get better .... 355, Dino, Daytona, Boxer :p

    I don’t think the import process is any different regardless of which state the car is going to.

    There are differences in registration options once you’ve got the car in (depending on the age of the car).

    The process was very easy for me to register the 355 in SA once it had gone through the compliance process (which was done mainly in QLD).
    The inspection to register it was focussed entirely on the ID of the car, not the roadworthiness.
    ie. They just wanted to be sure that the car they were looking at was the one in the compliance docs.

    I think you’ll find WA is the easiest of the states by a large margin Steve unless things have changed…Especially with LHD cars…I’m sure JM in Perth would know…Victoria and NSW would be the worst I’d say…
