IMO, the CS exhaust note is 2nd to none. F430 with Capristos and or Hyperflows is a close 2nd... Just ask PersonaNonGrata who sat in my F430 this weekend!
So that being said are the 360 and 430 cheaper or the same to maintain as a 355.

The 360 and 430's are probably takes the least amount to maintain. 355 maintenance costs are very high, like Josh said.

I have 19k miles on my 360 now, no major problems.

lol at "I have driven them" If you don't think a 73 RS, GT2, Carrera GT etc are not exciting cars, than you're smoking some good crack.. especially if you find M cars superior...
