    Have been lurking in the forum for quite a while but just finally decided to commit into Ferrari Ownership. Long time P-Car owner and racer but cant not have anymore a high revving, highly engineered midengine driver's machine.

    Want to buy a 430 Scuderia, preferably Grigio Silverstone (dont want to make my neighbors too aware of midlife crisis with a red one!). Do any of you have any feedback on these 2 cars (standard car with NAv + bluetooth and Ipod conex works and Alcantara is nice to have):

    Any other Grigio Silverstone worth looking at?

    Thanks!

    I prefer the 2nd one. Less flashy interior and the stripe.

    2nd one for sure - this car looks better with the stripe in my opinion.

    My vote is the second one in OP's post, nice interior and I like the red calipers.

    If you are looking for a Grigio Silverstone I am selling mine 2008 Scuderia with 1800 miles.
    The car is at Ferrari of Central Florida.

    My vote is for the first one. I like the interior and don't particularly care for stripes on the Scuderia.

    The Scud is sick sick sick!!! All in a great way. I have owned a 360, 430, CS - although they are great cars they can't begin to compare to a Scud - you will not believe it - take my word, if you track it you are going to need 5 point harness. The G's in a corner are unbelivable for a street car - it is glued to the track - run out and get one today - i dont know anthing about the car at CF Ferrari but I have dealt with them(Sandra) and they were very straight up. Also Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale(Ronnie) and of course they are the same people of F of Long Island.

    Let me know how you do

    I know. Finally drove one and its awesome, even much better/sharper than the regular 430 and feels just like my midengine racecar but with 200hp more!

    I want it to drive daily over periods of time (sharing time with daily driver GT2) and to take it to the track on occasion.

    Who should I talk to at Autogallery?

    Silverstone in January from Ferrari of Denver. Mine was yellow stitching, yellow calipers and a stripe. Have never regretted it and the people who see the color LOVE IT!!! Jon in Delaware

    I also love that grigio silverstone color. Here are three pics of my scud that I just bought a month ago. The car is sooooo amazing. The power, cornering and the looks are just unbelievable. I am sure that you will also enjoy yours as much as I do. I have not hand washed or cleaned any of my cars for over ten years. But now when my wife wonders where I am, she only has to look in the garage to see me with a microfiber cloth in my hand.

    Personally, I'd go for the second one. Interior is much better looking and I like the stripe. But in the end, YOU are buying the car; buy the one that makes YOU happy, and don't look back. ;)
