    Mike,
    Shall I ask Kreissieg for a full set for you?

    I am sure they could export with cost price on the invoice.
    Should you need any help, do let me know. Just do not go through the agent in the US since their retail price is extremely high.

    LMAO!!! Gun me down why don't you at least it is safe to say it has the most options out of all the F430's in SA so far

    If you can PM the details about the Kreissieg exhaust, it would be greatly appreciated. Do you have any close up photo's of the tips? I hate the stock tips!

    Mike,

    I think that is crema leather which is a popular option in the UK with the red carpets.If it's not crema it is sabia which is a slighty darker cream/beige colour.

    Hey Stefan, these are pics of 599GTB interior.
    According to my dealer these seats are not available for F430...
    BTW, maybe Mike will go for 599GTB also!

    Dimitri, how about small Gallardo review with pictures!?
    You have manual which is also IMO better option then e-gear. I tried Gallardo MY2006(520hp, shorter gears) with manual gearbox... Awsome beast!

    Well, I finally took delivery today! Schedule allowed me time to go fetch her. Here's a couple more shots of her in the garage. Excuse the dirty Cayenne

    I'll take some more pics on Saturday, especially since we've been having this lovely weather lately.

    It's still brand new, so I haven't had a chance to push the car yet. So far on normal calm driving, it is very smooth. Sometimes I touch the paddle accidentally and it will shift a gear and I won't even notice!

    Found some more photo's on my camera phone, the quality is horrid though!
