rossi said:Well, not so sure about that. F360/F430 and Challenge Stradale are different type of cars, don't you think?
Absolutely, but you and I know that 95% of both car's owners will never see any track time. So for those people the 430 would have been a far better choice considering how improved it is in every way (besides looks, lol) to the 360CS.
Thanks Rossi for the info research, let me know if you hear anything on brakes.

(probably late 20=s early 30=s). He is a successful cleancut business type.
Wayne you're killing my a$$hole reputation, stop stop stop! Thanks for the kind words buddy.

Particularly galling? Are you for real? I relayed the story exactly as it happened nberry, word for word. Aren't you suspended in the P-car forums of this very site because of your wonderful posts? You talking to me is like the pot calling the kettle black.
Interestingly enough, I see Wayne that you just had an almost identical scenario happen to you this week as well, was if Ferrari of OC or SD? Your story on F-chat is almost exact to the letter what they told me. No entry-level V8 Ferrari is worth a $25k+ premium and a five year wait. Sorry folks, I don't wear Ferrari underoos and sleep in Ferrari F1 bedsheets.
For Wayne's experience inquiring on the 430 in SoCal, read the following:

Ferdie said:I hear some rumours about increasing Murcielago's hp output? Anybody knowledge about that topic?
Yes, the intro of the Murcielago GT will likely take place early in the January/Feb major car show cycle of 2006. The launch and delivery of the Gallardo ragtop is a higher priority for the factory as they continue to accelerate to a production rate of 4,000 cars per year. They have confirmed though that AWD will be retained in the future GT versions of both the Gallardo and the Murci.
A Murci with say 50 - 75 more HP, and possibly a few pounds less in weight, would provide acceleration figures that match a CGT's to 300Kph (roughly 31 - 32 seconds) so it's something to look forward to. Same goes for the Gallardo, can't imagine that car with another 75HP and some weight loss, it would be a category killer as the Ford GT appears to be.
