    Agree with the 458. I drove several certain that it would be my first Ferrari. To me it was extremely capable, but felt numb like most of the modern sports cars today.

    I ended up with a Scud, but love the CS as well for the rawness! I’d love to add one someday.

    Dang I just found this post...congrats on the CS! Makes me want to get a CS. Makes me think I should kept my 458 spider and added a CS.

    More driving time in the CS lately.

    Have noticed relative to the Pista, 458 and F12 TDF, all with race seats, the CS has the superior driving and seating position. The race seats in the CS are deeper and seem more track oriented than the faux 458+ versions. Just perfect. TDF so far I cant get a good position.

    If thats your thing, awesome!

    For me I eat up the canyon’s to Malibu with the CS’s lite weight and wonderful balance.
    The Pista and TDF were better big road cars.

    Found these pictures of my CS many years after a Spa Francorchamps event. Must have been one of the very few times it actually got wet.... :D

    I enjoyed driving mine yesterday. Such an amazing looking car. It gets compliments everywhere. Nobody ever believes it’s from 2004.

    cS has very similar lines to Gordon Murray’s new T50

    Swapped the CS with the TDF in storage. Had both out today thru the Malibu hills/PCH. Forgot what a beast the TDF is.

    Another hour of seat time in the CS, thru the deserted canyons north of LA. Brilliant little car.
    Telepathic and appropriately weighted steering.

    Couldn't agree more. Took mine out on my favorite canyon drive; Prescott to Yarnell via Highway 89. Gotta be one of the best sports car roads in the U.S. Tomorrow it will be the Pista and it will be quite a contrast, I'm sure!

    Which one would you keep if it was just one - the CS or TDF? I ask as I could likely stretch to one not both!

    Sold the TDF, bought a second CS.
    Very diff cars of course. Had thought I would keep the TDF long term as it is such a gorgeous car unlike the 812sf, but it just didnt grow on me.
