    After lurking on the forum for the past few years I finally pulled the trigger on a 2005 Giallo F430 6 Speed Manual with 18,XXX km, and it arrived about a week ago

    Shout out to Steve and John for the great service @ Daytona Auto in Ontario Canada. They lowered the car 1 inch all around and installed a Capristo Stage 3 exhaust before the car shipped out.

    It rides quite well even though we have probably the worst roads in Canada here in Edmonton.

    Anways Attached some photos of when the car arrived, there was a brand new 458 speciale and mclaren on the way to Vancouver, my old M3, and Grandma that wanted a ride in the "new to me" car.

    Great choice, 6M rules! :D
    I have a Challenge exhaust and a set of Fabspeed headers (and titanium blankets ready to install) am hoping the Fabspeed headers don't make her too loud and I have to re-install the stock muffler.

    Beautiful & congrats! I have the same 6M and Capristo exhaust. The headers will tie it all in together!

    Drive it well. I just got back from driving my Nero Nero 430 six speed. Nothing like it.

    Enjoy

    still 2k miles and it will melt or explode, as Ferrari do at 20K (at least what most garage queens collectors think) LOL
