Since the first time I saw the F430 it became my favourite and I was sure it will be a huge success. Now all comments prove my point.

Yep of course some SLR pics will follow. Luckily they closed the bonnet for me, but it was surrounded by useless ropes and basically impossible to take a good pic.. I hope at least a couple are postable
What matters the most is that you have seen it for yourself Pictures can't really capture the thrill of seeing a car in the metal/carbon fibre... when i visit showrooms/dealers/motorshows, i take only a few pictures for myself to remember the trip by. The rest of the time is spen gawping at the details on the car... the angles you can't quite capture with a camera, the reflections on complex surfaces, the amount of legroom

Your pictures are a bonus... something you enjoy doing, and we enjoy seeing. So your "crap" pics of the SLR will still be appreciated 8)

LOL you are 100% right, I admit sometimes I do the opposite, I take pics in some sort of trance and then I notice details only when watching the pictures since I barely look at the car outside the small LCD screen! But I'd rather have some nice pics for you all than enjoying the car for hours and forgetting taking pics

Beautiful shots TT, and excellent spotting. So now that you've seen it in person, how do you think it compares to the 360? I haven't had the chance to see it in the metal yet....however, for some basis of comparison, the Ford GT cleans up in the looks department to me compared to the 360. Not so sure about the 430 though...

Unbelievable....I wish I saw all these cars like you, why did I ever leave Switzerland???? :x
That Ferrari dealership is the place to be....I think I could spend all sitting there and waiting for the cars to come to me.
Great pics, thanks, can't wait for the rest.

I am afraid RC45 is right....this will become the new Ferrari Taxi for tools with too much money. But this is extrmley quick...so it might wipe out some of the retards....but then the poor car has to go as well......

TT, I think you will have to start a topic (and make it a sticky) about your camera....everyone seems to re ask the question in every thread.
