The M6 is a very fast car, but the F430 is a Supercar

It absolutely thrashed an M5 on one of Clarkson's DVDs too.

But to be honest, it's an unfair comparison on BMW, providing they don't set these cars up as supposed supercar killers.

Nahh, it possibly can't do that... the M5/M6 is even able to beat a Gallardo... :roll:

^^^
Ive never really driven a supercar with an SMG but a few of my friends have BMWs and such with the SMG boxes, it dosnt seem like it is hard/like there is a way to make it go faster. Manual is harder and much more driver involved. Correct me if im wrong.

Bullcrap. SMG is super simple drive, and you can set it on automatic as well. No excuse.

Drivers are always an issue, yes, totally agree. This is simply a posting of a video in the correct section, it wasn't aimed at anyone (as far as I can see) like some people's posts regularly do! So what is the problem?

F430 > M5/M6 on two separate occasions, end of. :roll:

Even though I'd take the M6, F430 is a supercar and yes, it is faster and yes, I love it!
However, with a better driver, simultaneous start and going to top speed I reckon the story will be different.

yes an f430 would eat a bmw m6 no surprise there the ferrari is a supercar with superior power to weight ratio and the bimmer is more of a gt car and i don't like it very much

and those were my two cents ladies and gentlemen

How ironic, the BMW is red and the Ferrari is black.

Wait, so was the M6 set at only P400?

Why? The 430 is no faster than a Gallardo, nor is it more exclusive, sexiness is down to each person, they are in the same price range....
