Help me........Please

I own a Ferrari F430 F1 2006 and have just driven a Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera 2007....WOW


The question....Do i change into the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera or keep the Ferrari F430.

Which car will keep its money better and be better for the running costs?

Thanks in advance for your help

Paul,

i suggest you give yourself time to bond with the F430.
It's a very good car indeed, the Lambo is more focussed and a lot of fun and you wouldn't be disappointed with either.

Have you thought about a 430 spider......?

Change!! I had a 430 F1 spider and bought the SL aswell. Planned to keeep them both but would use the SL everytime. Lambo is far more special and better to drive.

fwiw with no prejudices i did mutliple test drives of both and chose sl : more focussed, more involving, more drama, more noise, just "more", really

I have just changed from a 355 to a Superleggera, I get it next week and have never driven it.

I figure it's going to be pretty good!

That's great that you have change to a Lamborghini BUT how can you buy a car NEVER haven test driven?? It is like buying a house you've never seen surely?

Are there two different spoiler options with the SL. Looking in the classifieds, Dick Lovett and Top555 have '07 and '08 cars respectively, but the spoilers are completely different.

As far as I can gather one specified 'Rear Wing' or they didn't. My car has it and I have to say I think it looks immense!

Don't you mean "less", as in, "less paint"?
