    So I get closer and closer to actually getting a ferrari, however I start to ask some harder questions. I love the look of the 360 and am in love with the taillights. I hate the 430's taillights, mirrors and general look. In order to get the look I like I would need to drop it way down, replace the mirrors with carbon fiber ones, and add the hamman front bumper and sideskirts.

    Seems like I should just buy a pristine 360 right? Well I want the performance of the 430 and don't like the idea of supercharging it. I like the scuderia look better then the normal 430, but i want a "luxury" interior.



    *edit* some of the things I said where in a sarcastic tone and I didn't mean for them to be taken that way.

    Totally agree with the OP. I think the 360 is WAY prettier car than the 430. The 430 Spider does look a bit better to me, but over all a 360 spider with a challenge grill and maybe a small Novitec front lip spoiler is damn near perfect.

    I too prefer the Scud over both and the 16M...well, that would just be heaven! The Scud is what the 430 should look like ALL THE TIME! YMMV and no offense intended. I tell you what though, if I could afford a 430 spider I'd get that over a 360 spider, but the price delta between those two is $50k to $90k depending on the cars you are comparing. I would say low to low, or high to high are probably in the $50k to $60k difference...that is BIG! That is a second (and very very nice looking I might add) Ferrari a 456GTA!

    I would get the 430. I purchased two 360's last year as my first two F cars. One coupe and one spider. Although I do like the exterior look of the 360 better, all in all no way to deny the 430 is a more modern and updated car. I am in the process of trading one in for a 430. Save the step, buy the 430.

    Just an additional comment. You can look at the list of cars I own/owned in my profile. Nothing comes close to the 360. the most beautiful and enjoyable car I have owned.
