    I own a 355 and am contemplating buying a 360 or even a 430......My greatest concern & challenge at this point is to decide which Ferrari to buy.

    In the top-ten sarcastic list of "tough decisions to make"......deciding which model & color Ferrari to buy has got to rank up there. When friends see me sitting quietly (as I ponder this decision), I'm too embarrassed to disclose what I'm deliberating about....HILARIOUS!

    Life is good and I don't take this moment for granted.....

    ....and I'll thank you all for being part of it too :)

    Which is NOT to suggest this is a "help me figure out which model" thread....it's just a share the moment in realization thread. Everyone should have this problem, eh?
    :) :) :) :) :) :) :)


    Note to self: if youcan travel back in time to any point in your life.....this would be a good choice! ;)

    I faced the same decision earlier today, too.

    Except mine was on a smaller scale...as in, which nostril to mine first.

    Get the 430.

    I'll make the decision harder:

    What Ferrari to buy so you can still afford to buy Leon a Lotus for being such a swell dude.

    j/k, Good luck with your decision man.

    You are a lucky man..

    Going from a 355 to a 360 is already a fantastic step to my opinion, but I can't see your wallet.

    I own a 348, and a 430 will never in my life reachable for me but I do want to say that I think that the 430 is the most beautiful car in the world.
    No 612 or Enzo or whatever can beat those lines.

    Good luck man !

    Steve,
    Good for you, and all the better since you realize it as its happening. I too feel fortunate.....although all I drive is a Porsche Turbo, a 360 or 430 PLUS the funds to maintain is just a wet dream at this point.

    ROFLMAO....Thanks Korr, due to that comment BOTH my nostrils are blown-out with ice-tea that was otherwise intended for my stomach. That was flawlessly hilarious!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :)

    Nahhhh guys, this was absolutely not about the car, but about relishing & enjoying the notion of having the decision to make. Hmmm...maybe best explained by saying it's the pursuit of happiness rather then just happiness itself.

    Oh crap....next thing ya know I'm gonna start getting a period and begin watching Oprah. Back to our regularly scheduled F-chat, ya lousy bunch of foul swine!!!!! ARGHHHH~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Haha. Just reminded me, whenever my friends start whining about something small and pointless I tell them to go watch oprah and drink a diet soda.
