    I bought my car from Qatar,so i guess its just like the european version.But im from kuwait.well UR MISSING OUT ON SO MUCH FUN GUYS(LAUNCH CONTROL) IT MAKES YOU SMILE WHEN UR FEELING DOWN WITH JUST A PUSH OF A BUTTON.I did it around 5 times its great but i dont want to get used to it,because i dont want to burn my clutch.i try to do it on soft tar roads,new roads where the surfice is smooth.I'll try to get a clip in,but the weather here is boiling 45'c plus will increase throughout the summer.i'll have to film just before the sun goes down, so that the weather cools off abit.take care all

    Are suspension heights different depending on the country? Didn't know that if its true. When asking my dealer about lowering the ride height, they made it sound as if it would in a negative way affect "settings" of the car (not sure what they meant by this) and not to do such.

    -Ride Height in Mexico is 20mm more than in Europe hmmm! the roads
    -I think that LC control gets active when you move the st wheel selector all the way to the right...
    -The first 430 we got here where Euro versions after that all the 430,s sold in the American continent are US spec

    I don't know if the exhaust system is also affected in this version...

    Hey q8fly I'm down in Bahrain with my 360, how are you coping with the heat and DUST, I drive mine 5 out of 7 days and have a good long highway run to keep the temps down, but if I sit in trafic the needle nudges a fraction past 100. Do you run your car through summer ?
