That looks magnificent. I dont do jealousy however i am extremely jealous!!!
It looks superb. Great car, great colour combination. How long until you get to drive it home? I would be camping out at the dealers until it was ready....
Going to be a couple of weeks as I have spent 4 hours going over the car and made a list longer than my arm of things the dealer is going to do in the prep for me. Also from main dealer so a 57 plate, 1 owner car, and I get the joy of 2 years warranty.It looks superb. Great car, great colour combination. How long until you get to drive it home?

I really want this car to make me fall in love with it, I want it to be a keeper. Have sold every other car I have had after 1 year of ownership...

Am I right in thinking you were also looking at a Scud? What swayed you towards the standard 430?
Edit: Love the seats - I would get the carbon Nismo ones for the GTR....if they weren't £13k that is.
I already have a race car for track, I compete in the MR2 championship. This car is not to be tracked, and I can't help but think that means I would not get the most out of the Scud, while certainly losing a lot of comfort. My girlfriend hates the stripped out cabin.

So I went from looking at Scud's to looking at 599's. I nearly bought a 599 end of last week, but couldn't quite agree on price and they obviously still have a lot of depreciation to go.
I basically kept coming back to normal F430's for my own needs, which is fast-road spiritted driving, but still enjoying a level of comfort and luxury, which this interior spec certainly gives! This car was at my local Ferrari garage a mile down the road, and after some negotiation it all felt right!
Looking forward to a couple of subtle mods, sorting the geo, and enjoying her

Looks great, interior is fantastic. With regard the exhaust. I'm not sure it needs more. My 430 sounds great over 3-4k RPM but a bit dull below. I've asked many times but can you unplug these things so they are loud all the time?. Just like you can do to the 360 exhaust. With that done I can't see the need for a tuned exhaust.

Don't tell the GF about the seats and you'll be fine, plus it's not a spider so bouffant friendly. I basically kept coming back to normal F430's for my own needs, which is fast-road spiritted driving, but still enjoying a level of comfort and luxury, which this interior spec certainly gives!
The F340 is a real Jekyll and Hyde car, you'll love it!
