    I personally believe this is one of the best color combinations you can get.. I really like the interior as well.

    My Gallardo Spider I ordered - is very similar in color - so maybe I am biased... But I love it!

    Colour is of course a very personal choice, I always think silver cars look as though they are ready to paint and everyone and his brother has been buying silver everything for the last few years. Ultimately if you like it have what you want.

    I don't know if you noticed, but the reason you might be getting a deal is that somebody mistakenly put the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car. I would definitely knock some bucks off for that!

    As for the color, i love it. The lighting in those pictures seems a bit dark, but titanium looks gorgeous on the F430 imo. But if you really want Silverstone, or any other color, I would hold out. Remember, its your car so enjoy it as much as possible, you wont regret it.

    If you can get it for the right price, I'd say go for it.

    That colo(u)r should be considered a bonus rather than a negative.

    Color is very subjective. I love that combination, especially with the black carpets so you don't overdose on the red.

    I don't care for it -- I much prefer tit/blk, silverstone/blk or blk/blk.

    But it's your money. What any of us like doesn't matter.

    Have fun with it! :)

    Agreed. The bourdeax would get old IMO. If you like it I think that titanium is a color that you wouldn't get tired of. Grigio Silverstone might be a shade too dark.

    To get a deal on a Ferrari is one thing but to regret the color you got is another. I think the color combo is nice but if your second-guessing yourself, you may kick yourself down the road and say to yourself, "why didn't i wait for the silverstone?" Think it over IMHO..

    What kind of a "deal", and why were you offered it?

    Are you currently an F-car owner?

    yeah, just sold my black 360... basically overs in the UK are seeing the 430 spider at 170k I can pick this up for 150 cos the guys in deep on an enzo and needs to move fast. Theres nothing around that comes close apart from some LHD modenas. I think it makes sense...

    A little off-topic, but are the 430 seats more comfortabel than the 360's?

    It certainly looks that way.
