Just sold the Ultima and now missing not having a toy.Thought 355 or 360 spider then what the hell 430.Will probably be a coupe if it's the 430 and would like to keep sub 70k.Seems a few nice cars at this price.Want a manual,what should I look out for spec wise.Your thoughts and experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks

hi mate, just wanted to put accross my opinion, dont no if youve test driven one yet, but it is an awesome car, and i prefered the paddle shift as its got launch control, and when i tried a fast start in the manual it just bogged down and didnt pull away like the paddle shift with launch control 'ON'. might just be my driving but i though i would let you know. Cheers

I have heard F1 is best but also like a full manual.Have driven F430f1 and it almost makes life too easy.Thanks guys,stradale is a great car,I just wonder about the long term values.Thinking 430spy red/cream,is that boring?

Fantastic car but sub 70K are they down to that now? I thought they were still hovering around the 100K just curious.

Hi Shake

430 coupe found a nice one 69k.

The car I am settling on is one of two 430 Spider F1 box 06 plate low miles at £90k.

I guess the budget went up a little.

A Challenge Stradale at £85K will hold it's value far better than a £90K F430 Spider. I thought you liked driving, so why the Spider? Do you cut hair for a living! wink
