Yes, rotational sound. Goes away when turning right, gets louder when turning left. I've stopped driving it since, I'm tempted to jack it up and...
I was looking at gated manual cars. I have always been a manual trans kind of guy, opting for a 6pd everytime. I saw a 6pd black F430 on ebay...
Great! I will look at picking one of those up. Thanks. The exhaust ticking seems to be very infrequent, only does it on one out of every few...
Ahh, you sure did! I think my attention span must have been pretty bad last night. I am going to check with some shops here in the SF bay...
I like this option. FoS - Ferrari of Seattle? Total guess. Thanks for the info on this!
Yeah it's kind of strange. It only does it once in a while on a cold start, and maybe for 10 seconds or less. Seems like header failures are so...
Thank you! I thought so. I always loved red on pretty much all Ferrari's, but I think the scud looks best in black. I love the black/grey stripe...
I appreciate your info and feedback about the ownership experience! The scud is crazy, coming from the M3/M2, it's just stupid-fast. It feels...
Thanks! You got it, hoping to get some good pics tomorrow. I picked the car up Thursday, been driving it a bunch. Thank you. I think so, it...
Thanks for contributing your thoughts and experiences! It's funny in a way, that for me the experience was opposite in terms of finding an F430 vs...
That's amazing! I would love to get a ride with you on the Nordschleife sometime : )
Thanks for the feedback. I know how fast the 991.1 GT3. I have run with them on the track several times, those things fly. Pretty impressive...
Wow, beautiful shots! That car is badass, thanks for sharing. I can't imagine how fun that car must be on the 'ring. Driving the nordschleife...
I'm assuming that you mean the F430 will probably hold it's value better? Spending the last year looking @ F430's, I tend to agree with what you...
Thanks to everyone for the input so far! I'm starting to lean more towards getting the scud. I've been dreaming of a red F430 for quite a while...
Thanks for the advice The scud has 27k miles on it, and I could see putting 5k+ mi per year on it. I figure that the price is fair for the...
I spent a couple of days in a 458, truly an amazing machine. For some reason, the 430's speak to me more. I prefer the interior/exterior look of...
Yeah, it's a bummer that i didn't get to push it much on the test drive. Would you say the scud is trickier to drive at the limit?
Thanks for the insight F355. I understand your point about spending money on a toy. I can afford either car, but the price difference is still...
