Took over the Ferrari F430 on Friday! What a gorgeous, fun, beast to drive! Rides surprisingly smooth compared to the Ford GT40 we had. But DH says not as quick.

No, no, no...stick with the convertible!

Nice car! I almost got one of those. Have a great time!

p.s. If you plan on using it for a daily driver, can you let me know how that goes? Thanks.

Very nice - is it a driver or a garage queen?

Sure, if you like the extra weight, slower performance times, steeper cost, less structural rigidity, and uglier body lines.

Hey, we agree! Something doesn't sit right with me on the looks of that convert... and another major factor is certainly the body rigidity as you pointed out.

Other than that... have fun!
