    absolutely beautiful interior of the car. A true gentlemen's GT with enough grunt to take on most machines on the road and take your family along.

    I was blessed with purchasing a 05 F430 F1 (red/black 6k) with 20" HRE M47's and taking deliver on it over the weekend. This car is more than I expected. I traded in a 06 M5 and there is just a world of a difference. I'm am very impressed with this Italian beast. I would love to meet up and cruise with some other exotics in the NY tri-state area- any info will be great. Gonna drop off 430 for Escort passport 9500ci install tomorrow. Just joined forum and lovin it. Thanks for all the info and tips. Still have to take pictures, but here is one of the actual car on HRE website.

    Congratulations! Enjoy her in good health. It's been a few months since I started this thread. I have now moved on to my second Ferrari, a red Ferrari California which I bought a few weeks ago. It's a wonderful car, although it is currently in the shop with a failed driver's seat belt. Can't wait till I get it back!

    I've been in my '06 f430 for two weeks now. Gave up my BMW M6 and the F430 is TDF BLue. I'm loving it. The two cars couldn't be more different. I will miss the backseats and large trunk as my boys (4 and 5) used to love the rides to school. I looked at the 612 as well. As I am not fortunate enough to have two ferraris my kids will have to accept the Tundra pickup for now. Congrats on the California.

    Thanks Gordon. Seems quite a few of us went from our M6s to our first Ferrari. May be the start of a trend here. I love the TDF blue color. My 612 was a TDF blue car and I loved the color combo with the cuio interior. My Cali is Rosso Corsa and I love it also. I no longer have the 612 so my kids are enjoying the Cali on short rides and our MB 550 SUV on the longer ones. Congrats on your 430, that is one awesome looking performance car. Enjoy it in good health.
