    every car company has history maybe as good as ferrari or maybe better... i dont know or care. I just like the cars. look at the Koenigsegg car company, its only 10 or so years old, so it has virtually no history but i like the CCX

    its just like music, i dont have a favorite band or singer i just listen to the music!

    Nice try, bozo

    M3 or RS6 for me.

    I don't have the RS4 in my top cars list- nowhere near, in fact. It's just that the F430 is in the "HATE HATE HATE" list, edging slowly into the "LOATHE ENTIRELY" section

    That is until you get a ride in one, or something.

    Personally, I believe many BMW and Rolls Royce cars have more character than Ferrari's. Every person will express a different opinion according to what a particular person likes or hates in relation to a car(s).

    Clutch-monkey, I respect your opinion but I really love the new BMW's (2002-2006 BMW models) besides the BMW X5 which is terrible... and the new BMW 1-series is ugly and generally... a disgrace.

    I'd like to... but I can't... I got a ride in a 612 Scaglietti, it was a magnificent car, very fast, quite comfortable and spacious... but my god it was ugly... and the sound of the V12 wasn't very special. On the other hand I'd be happy with an Aston Martin... They might not be as fast, as spacious or as efficient... but...
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Hey!
    As insane as it may sound, this is quite an interesting comparison. Firstly, let's get things straight- I love Ferrari's to death. But I've always comtemplated being an owner- and lets face it- that's a scary picture. I have a couple of scale models and well let's just say they're off-bounds. And besides, you can almost never do justice to it on decrepit roads. The RS4- quick brilliant, and since I dont love it as much.... Maybe! .... forgive me Enzo for I have sinned!

    I would personally feel better getting out of an RS6 as people would say "Wow nice car" whereas getting out of a ferrari I'd feel people would be thinking "Nice car... shame about the exhibitionist W*****r"

    Also you have the fun in a fast audi of thrashing chavs at headlight who think that anything with a spoiler goes at the speed of an asthmatic ant with some heavy shopping. Not just flattening them straight off but making them think they're winning before you go into second gear


    Of interest anyone with a Ferrari 430, how well do they tend to cope with speed bumps? that ground clearance just looks stupidly low along the whole thing
