I am going to be changing my F Type V8S shortly. I have had amazing fun with it, the performance is stunning and it probably has the best soundtrack of any car I have ever owned. But - it's not special enough to keep as a weekend only toy. I am looking for something more exotic.
I have narrowed my choice to a late model F430 or an early MP4. I love the Ferrari brand, had an F355 back in 2004 and have wanted another Ferrari for some time now. However I can't overlook the fact that it is old tech, particularly the gearbox. By contrast the MP4 is a modern supercar.
Outright performance and handling are not critical for me. The overall package of performance / handling / noise and feel good factor out weights lap times and how many G's it can pull while cornering. How it sounds in particular is a very large part of the enjoyment factor for me.
Can anyone who has experience of both cars provide insights / comments?
