    Every winter I get car ADD. I don’t drive my F430 for about 4 months. The salt they throw on the roads is crazy, I just can’t do it. So I start to day dream about 458s, 488s, etc. Well I just took my F430 out last weekend and what a treat it was. It truly makes you realize how amazing the F430 is. From the sound to the design. I hope everyone enjoys their car this season, they sure are special!

    I'm still waiting for the first couple of good rains here in Northern Indiana before I take mine out. I have the yearly service on 4/20, but will surely be going on a few drives before that AND I can't wait!!

    Yes we lucked out with some good rain a week ago! Had to take advantage of near 50 degrees in March.

    I love the F430 design, it's aging beautifully.

    The exact same thing happens to me. After a couple of drives, the need to get the newer one sort of goes away. Agree that the design is aging much better than I expected. In fact I’m liking the design more over time than I did before I owned it. Has a classic look, and my wife prefers it to the newer models (from a design standpoint). Mine just got serviced last week.

    In both Texas/Louisiana we don’t really have an off season, so can’t complain much!

    Glad to hear that I am not the only one! It’s fun to look at the modern cars and drive them but there is something about the F430 that still has that raw Ferrari sound, feel, stunning design, etc.

    I’d really love to have an F430 Spider
