Sanguru did you trade the Lambo for the 430

I thought you had a Lambo. But I just saw the avatar with a 430 next to your Stradale.

By the way which do you like better. Is the 430 that much faster.

I was planning to get a used 360 or gallardo in the spring but I just opened another business and it cost me more than I thought for building renovations.
Plus im buying two bimmers soon and still have the M3 on order and after seeing the pics and videos i still want one.

So now im thinking of getting a late model 355 F1. I think 99 was the last year. have you ever driven one and what are you opinions on that car?

never liked P cars enough to buy them.
The aston is damn sexy though. I just heard terrible things about its reliability. But it probably cant be worse then a ferrari

Oh. Yea I wasnt on here for a while and then I saw you had a 430 and no Murci so I was wondering what happened.

So what do you think 355 now if I can find a mint late model F1 version
Or just wait and get a 360 or 430 when its time?

I personally prefer the 355 to the 360. IMO the 355 has the nicest sounding exhaust note of any car ever made.

Maintenance nightmare.. Copper valve guide issues, $18,000, F1 pump or clutch, $20,000, 15K, 30K service, $10,000. In other words, it cost you arm, leg and left nut to service a 355.

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!
