997 GT2 vs. F430 Scuderia

[The_Canuck]

Ferraris have V12 engines, therefore the 911, but I'd do a McReis if possible.

Do you hate V12's or something

[Ferrer]

Do you hate V12's or something

Au contraire, mon ami.

[The_Canuck]

Au contraire, mon ami.

Ok then...why'd you pick the 911

Oh wait I see, you don't respect the F430 because it doesn't have a V12 and you think the best Ferraris do?

[Ferrer]

Exactly.

(Not the best, proper Ferraris have V12s )

[The_Canuck]

Exactly.

Hmm, but the "properest" Ferraris are racing cars, are they not? So since the F430 Scuderia is a homologation of sorts...it is in fact more "proper" then any V12 Ferrari currently on the market

No, it's just a Dino with a Ferrari badge in the nose.

No, it's just a Dino with a Ferrari badge in the nose.

You are far to picky....

[mavanhaasteren]

i will go for the F430 it is a beauty

Man, you're more of a purist than I am. However, in light of cars like the 1962 268 SP I've learned to accept the 430 Scuderia.

Ferrari even had 4 cylinder racing cars, like the 860 Monza for instance, but if I was to have a Ferrari it would have to be a V12.

[clutch-monkey]

well, the scuderia looks like complete ass, those gold rims and the rear.. *shudder*
so i'd say the GT2, no doubt it's scary as well. but i would prefer a GT3RS, and if there was a way to get the scuderia equipment ina standard looking 430...

F430. i saw this review of the 997 GT3 & the driver said that there was something wrong with the chasis and so it isnt capable of cornering around very tight bends.

no, i think there is something wrong with the driver

[Kitdy]

I would take the F430 Scuderia. It is lighter, naturally aspirated, and mid-engined; three very good things in my eyes.

I don't like the silly rear-enginedness of 911s or turbocharging so it's a no brainier for me.

Ferrer, you are so damn picky... I like your style!

[Lets Gekiga In]

I think I would end up taking the Ferrari F430 Scuderia as well. Just so much heritage behind the Ferrari name, beautiful car in general, and mid engined.

[Kooper]

The F430 is marvelous, no doubt about it.

Considering that some nut circled the 'Ring in 7:32 in a GT2 vs. the F430's best of 7:55, I'd probably take the GT2 though...

First: thats not a great comparsion...

Second: was it a F430 Scuderia that made the 7:55?
