Yep, I think the CS is as good or better looking car from every angle (except for the rear) than is the 430.

 

The 360 is a work of art, more so than the 430.

 

"did the article mention the active suspension option of raising the car going in and out of driveways, etc. Is it true?"

james - not sure if you are asking about this system for the F430, or if they have a system like this. I have seen the system at work on an Enzo, it is perhaps one of the smartest things exotic sports car manufactures can do. It works great, and if anyone is contemplating purchasing the F430, I would definitely recommend getting this system, even if you have the worlds most perfect driveway at your house for cars that are inches off the ground, it can still help you when you take the car out.

 

this car is sexy. but honestly when it comes too trans i would personally go for the 6speed gear box over the F1.
1. because its alot more fun
2. the F1 on the 360 was too poor (BMW's SMG alot better)

 

Finally got through my stack of car mags today, and I must agree--this is one sexy car!! Having said that, just not practical enough for me. I need a back seat for my 2 kids when they're with me for the weekend.

 

nothing poor about the CS's F1. i know that earlier 360 F1s were pretty cruddy, but they've come a very long way. the CS's F1 is just as good (if not much faster) than our 03 M3's SMG was.

 

I think the 430 is wonderful...thinking seriously of putting down a deposit.

 

I'd order one in a heartbeat if I could find a reasonable allocation and price. I called around and basically was told because I don't own a Ferrari already I couldn't get one..argh..
