What a car.. some sound from the exhaust.. followed a 430 out of town the other day and i have to say that the porsche sounded better with the sport button pressed...well done porsche on getting a decent exhaust note instead of sounding like a vw beetle..!!!

you should hear an '06 gallardo. makes a 911 sound asthmatic & an F430 sound like a sewing machine!

as it's on a 56 plate i take it you bought it 2nd hand, are they still fetching list?

it's the only car that really deserves to keep it's price in the market place as it's price purely for it's own market and has no other competion at sub £100k.

the mid corner grip is better than any other rear wheel road car other market.

The gt3 are priced very well.. autocar magazine said that they were a bargain.. not being bias but i think its the best car money can buy this side of 150k sterling...ok a 430 is nice if u like posing but bring it to a track and it would shit itself after a few laps.. thats why you never see ferrari's at the ring.. porsches just laugh at them...!! The gt3 are still making list all day long and in most cases 5k over list..!! rs can be anywere up to 13k over list..!!

Good choice of colour! Pity that it's now an additional £1k option...

Have you thought about getting the wheels painted?

For hardcore driving thrills my choice would be a GT3, then the Zonda-F. Not much in between that I really desire. Or beyond the F for that matter. Guess that makes the porsche a real bargain in a way.

Which is about £80K more expensive than a GT3!

GT3s have certainly held their prices well but no one in their right minds is paying list for used cars any more - fairly close though - and RSs certainly are still over, although not £13k IMO!

Re F430 - you didn't look hard enough at the 'Ring matey - we've been several times in a mate's car and it aquited itself very well against some fairly serious Porsche kit - mind you he's a handy driver too. I'll be taking mine over soon so look out for it! BTW I'm not getting into a willy waving contest as to what's faster than what, just pointing out that your comments were a LITTLE wide of the mark.smile

i have driven 430 on track with standard brakes,no setup for track etc and it was serious i would think it would be very hard beaten on track if it had track tyres proper brake pads etc,straight line i think it would have the gt3...sorry karl
