John did you get to drive the 430??? I don't care what car is on this site it DOES NOT even come close to a 430!!! The technology in that car is mind blowing.

The interesting question is when you get the nova done take the 430 and the nova to a cruise night and park next to each other. Which one gets the most attention???

From a technology and performance standpoint, yeah, the Ferrari is phenomenal. I would just prefer the Nova. Maybe I'm dumb, but it just suits me more. I'd like to drive the Ferrari, but not own it!

Unfortunately, No! The driveway was clogged with everyone elses cars so there was no way for him to pull it out. Good thing there wasn't a fire!

Yeah i would have to say, having driven a viper, corvette, 430 etc.. The 430 is unlike anything else. Its an indy car with a license plate.

I've been in a F430 and they are pretty amazing. Braking, handling and acceleration are pretty mind boggling.

I love musclecars, but have a sweet spot for Ferrari's. I'd feel one-upped.
