    I currently have an F8. I am planning to sell this and buy 2 cars. One of them being serious track car like 488 Challenge Evo. The other should be about driving experience and sound. It should also be a manual.

    What is a good Manual Ferrari which sounds good with an NA engine under 500,000 USD. I am thinking 599 or F 430. What does everyone think?

    Other than the old school v12's with 6 webers prob an F355 with aftermarket exhaust, I forgot the name of the best one for the f355 but you'll hear it on youtube

    EDIT: Capristo is the name of the exhaust

    Most people haven't heard Fabio's majestic creations in person - I suggest a 550, 575, or 599 with his art. 6-1 headers, so they sound like 599 GTO. Absolutely glorious, among the best I've experienced.

    The problem is that the cabin of a 550 is way more insulated than a 355.
    I voted 355 bc I got one but my favorite is my TR by far

    A 355 on full bore with aftermarket exhaust is -nice-.

    Also recommended, a 612. They did make a few sticks in that car.

    430 manual with a complete Kline exhaust system. It’s the last of the manual Ferrari’s that you can still get a hold of. The 599 manual is a unicorn and will not be under 500k usd.

    F355 with Capristo is hard to beat, this video gives you a very good idea:

    Driving to the Cape at 5AM the O'Neil Tunnel thru Boston in my F355 spider with Capristo was amazing!

    Honestly, 355, 360, F430, 599 …. They all can potentially sound great or horrible. It’s all about finding the right exhaust components that sound right to your ears.

    Surprised no one mentioned F50 ? I've never heard one ( or seen one ), but I'd sure like to - LOL
