anyone read about the 575M "GTC" package they are introing next year. i think its the final version of the 575 until the replacement.... it has the large GT ceramic brakes, lower/stiffer suspension, sport exhuast, faster/reprogramed f1, no engine mods though. read about it in one of this months car magazines. yo, pchop, naynay, ghost, MAn uP pLAyAs!
yes, pretty good package, but seriously expensive. A lot of that stuff will be optional on the upcoming new cars too. Carbon/ceramic brakes will be optional on the 430, but the Porsche ones are any guide, they will probably be about a $10,000 option. I'm not sure how I feel about whether they are worth it. They are certainly great brakes, but $10,000 better... Also, sport exhaust as a factory option: would you all get the sport exhaust or stick with aftermarket? It's nice that they are offering this from the factory, but I wonder if people are going to stick with Tubi or Capristo.
Ferrari brakes suck plain and simple. This is one area where Porsche has it hands-down over Ferrari. Ceramic brakes aside, Porsche track and street cars have comparable brakes -- very similar. Ferrari Challlenge cars and Ferrari Road cars brake systems are SO different. Much better on the track cars. I'm ordering my 430 with Ceramic Brakes.

$4800 for 18" BBS stradale rims without the tires. i would go for the 19" version. i am gonna get a set in the winter bro you must do the same pLaYA!
19" rims are the way to go cuz the stock 360 rims are 18" already. if i get the BBS stradale rims....ill gunmetal coat them or something. try to match my titanium color as brad suggested.
Not ferrari chat stuff but.......... Electronics expo has a Canon Powershot A300 for $99. 3.2 Megapixels 16MB memory card ,digital zoom only (no optical) I picked one up for keeping in the ferrari for runs. Not a good "main" camera, but a good one to keep in the car with no worries.
damn....BBS CH 19" rims are only $2140-2300 for a set of 4! http://www.streetdreams.org/display.php?s=BBS&r=CH&fin=Silver 19 x 8 ---- $2140 19 x 8.5 -- $2200 19 x 9.5 -- $2260 19 x 10 --- $2300 which tire width is preferred for Ferrari 360s? thicker the better? Im leaning towards the BBS DTM-Rad. I think they look more aggressive and slick. Dunno if they come in 19".....i emailed BBS to see if they will fit on a 360 Modena. First time Ive seen these DTM-Rad wheels. Anyone know how much they are? can't seem to find an english price quote on google or anywhere. .
Do not really like the rear either but it is one of those things that will probably grow on everyone. I hated the 360 when it came out and now I think it is a beautiful looking car. The Enzo I had the same feelings about. I just have to see the car in person to really be able to tell.
