Hmm, what codec is it? My windows media player can't d/l the proper codec so I just get the sound.

Wow, quite nice... the front looks like it has down-syndrome a bit though, I think I'd prefer the looks of the 360. Otherwise though, it's incredible.

Extremely hot car.

 

[codex57]

ohhhh, divx. Thanks Tom.

 

[poboyis]

i kinda found it amuzing you had to ask for the right codec, codex yup, dumb, but whatever ^^;; you know i've never seen the WMP download the right codec, ever! sometimes, it works even tho it couldn't dl it..

as for the f430.. oh she's hot. and it must be nice to just want a ferrari and get one.. when will i get a chance!!

 

[mclarensmps]

the design of that car is soooooo disjointed.... it doesnt look good at all... very non-ferrari, the 360 is WAYYYYYYYY better looking i think.

I don't like the F-430 writing that is molded into the back of the mirrors - looks cheap and kinda dopey.

Thats the first thing I said about it - but come on, I'm sure ferrari would change it for you.

 

[Chesty Bonds]

I love this car to bits. It's just so pure.

I agree with some of you. The 430 front end looks like meh. The 360 does not look dated.

 

[MrElussive]

The 360 does not look dated, but Ferrari's cars are always saw raw for their time, which makes them stand out. But later on when they get older, the cars just look ugly to people who never saw the cars on the road when they were brand new. This Ferrari F430 looks very sleek and smooth, and hopefully its design will stay beautiful for a long time.

I like the engine start button and the selectable driving modes....although I highly doubt anybody will want to drive their Ferrari in the snow !!!

i dont' like the front scoop, but just from the front. it makes the car look round, while the rest of the car from other angles is just sharp. the mirror looks like a tribute to the 80s. since they couldn't add the outrageous wing in the back, w/out getting stuff thrown at em

snow mode seems like the "i'm lazy today, so i'll just drive the car slow, and it'll do all the work for me" mode. i mucb like the selector switch than, holding onto a btn for x amount of seconds to turn some of the safety features off. oh the V-8 singing at 9k.. that'd be nice

Hmmm, you could hardly call the 250GT California, the Daytona, the Dino, or the 250GTB Ferrari's (to name but a few) ugly. Ferrari's arguably become more bautiful as they age.

except that god aweful f-40
