    Congrats and I recently acquired one as well. You describe the nature very well and I also LOVE IT!!! Mine has a Novitec suspension and rear spacers. I also have the Capristo exhaust valve kit / controller. If you love the sound now now, wait till you get this and keep the valves open at all times! Best of luck

    Shortly: I enjoyed the 360 6MT several years and loved to click the gears into place. It's a fairly foolproof system that takes time to master quickly and presistently. It's satisfactory.

    But I understand that moving up to a newer car means newer technology. I like how fast the DCT is. Awesome downshifts! And now I have the Launch control... :cool:

    Hello,

    My name is Steve and I’m a Ferrari 458 addict... Welcome to the club!

    “There is something magical about the Ferrari 458. It’s hard to put into mere words, but you feel it as soon as you fire it up and start driving. The gods at Maranello reached for the stars with the 458 and the result of their work was nothing short of epic!” - Steve
