Since I'm all about the performance, I'd have to vote for the 430. All the latest press shows it only a few tenths of a second from the Enzo, in the qtr and 0- 60.

That F430 has to be one of the hottest cars ever. F430 all the way. I wish the toughest decision I had to make was whether to go Lambo or Ferrari.....that would be awesome.

For the sake of argument, I'll choose the Lambo, just because Ferrari's are more common. When you see a Lambo, it's just so badas$...
ferrari? common? their not exactly honda civics now...when i see a 360 modena or a 550 mallarno in chicago i dont think to myself "eh their common" i chase em and race em!!

430 in Yellow, althought that will run probably $25 over window sticker. I think I would just purchase a 2006 Z06 if I had the money, the Ferrari looks gorgeous and you deserve to reward yourself, but the reliability is horrible.

Honestly, spend the extra money so you don't have to compensate for turbo lag, poor reliability, poor gas mileage and emissions. Driving a modified Evolution is fun, but nowhere near the fun of having extra displacement and cylinders. Or get something really light with an open roof like the Elise.

you want a corvette and your calling a ferrari unreliable, a dodge neon is un reliabale, mercs are unreliable, but comparing a corvette to a ferrari and calling it unreliable i think your just a little off, only a little haha

Ferrari easiily. First of all it is not a Half-Breed car like teh lambo is. Sit in a Lambo Gallardo, with its Audi S4 interior and german built. Its quality is kinda cheap for a dupercar stature. Feels kinda like those "Ford" Jaguars out there as well. It certainly is fast and handles well but is too watered down for my taste, if you don't believe me just open the door, not a Lambo but an AESOME car.


The Ferrari is and always been a pure breed. They normally have lass WHP then the Lambos but is way more tossable and actually has power to pull it this time. It'll handle better, pure RWD powertrain. Strp on the gas, best engine note ever.


Get the Ferrari..

What exactly is it that you do that allow you to be so grammatically incorrect? Sorry...but trying to decide between an R34, Ferrari and Lambo by someone who doesn't puncuate correctly, doesn't add up.

Oh, and by "do" I mean do for work. And go with a Ferrari. AUDI as a company is a joke as far as reliability goes. German Fords....gives me the creeps.
