    Impressive and I stand corrected, if so. I hadn't seen that one before.

    It sounds great, looks decent too and performs like anything, and will appreciate overtime.

    Nope still got it. Maybe a 3-pedal 911 one day, but that would be a downgrade.

    2016 Porsche Spyder is a wonderful and appreciating car. I’ve been hunting.

    maybe, go for a first gen NSX it's still there at $90k and once market goes up for these things it's never coming back and after all it's one of those cars gordan murray himself praised a lot so we all know it's gonna be wonderful to drive

    or better yet a 599 gtb with f1 transmission and then you can always manual swap it...

    How's the turbo lag? I have yet to drive a manual turbo car that I liked.

    Thanks! It is my daily and like I said I'm loving it. So much so that I'm wondering if I need another 6-speed (my F430), which is how I found this thread... But I do realize they are different cars for different purposes. My mind still wanders though.

    It's there, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't. But it's not that noticeable unless you are going more than half throttle. If you are in Sport mode the mapping is more responsive and frankly I don't realize it. I had an M8 before as a daily, and there I'd have to try to not feel the lag whereas here I have to try to feel it. If that makes sense.

    Totally agreed nonetheless both are supremely cool car especially the F430 in blu TDF with a gated manual that's like my dream spec actually!!

    is the F430 converted or a factory gated manual car?

    It's Mirabeau actually, which is quite close to TDF but a shade brighter/lighter. I get nothing but compliments on it, especially with the interior. Whoever spec'd this originally did a great job. If I decide to sell it I can let you know!

    Converted.
