What Would You Choose?

I'll take the F430, such a awesome looking car. The Gallardo would be my second choice.

One of the cheapest ones; the 911T for me.

I've been in a few 430's, they are beautiful, but honestly the drive didn't blow me away. I know, I'm weird.

F430, no question about it. Sexy hard.

911T is an excellent machine, but merely a machine.

Ferrari would be nice but you either have to put your name on a long waiting list or pay out the butt. I would rather buy something like the GT40 or Z06 and do some mods.

F430, It's sexy, fast, and it's FERRARI

PS: I actually have the magazine which compare euro block (F430, Gllardo, 911 Turbo) vs american block (Viper, Z06, GT)..

Gallardo all the way man...Lamborghini purist.

All Wheel Drive - and very distinctive styling - I think if I am going to drop that kind of change on a car, then it better scream "look at me" and I don't think any other car in that comparo screams as loud as the Lambo. Granted not all people who buy exotics are as flamboyant but there is just something about Lamborghini's that epitomizes exotic like no other marquee save Ferrari. IMO.
