This is a ridiculous poll- even if I didn't prefer the F430 (and I'd be out of my MIND not to), I'd choose it, flip it for a minimum of $200 grand, and then buy one of each of the others. And have some pocket change left over.

I'm stuck between the Ferrari and the Aston. I have a very close family member who wants to get some expensive rubbish Mercedes. For as much as she would spend on that she could buy the Baby Aston. To put it lightly, after this family member gets w/e vehicle I usually end up with w/e she had a year or two ago. So, OBVIOUSLY, I am trying to influence what she gets!!!

This thread is utterly pointless since it has no mention of the only car any man should ever want....ever.

hint: it's name start with an "M" and ends with a "5."

Again... I have say the OP and this whole thread sucks.

That was really rude, and it didn't even make you look cool. :thumbsdown:

For looks, I'm not impressed with any of them. Now this is a bit more to my liking. Or this. Or this.

Urgh. Those things are not great in the flesh. The propotions are all wrong. Coupe Ferraris FTW. The 'verts are always a nasty compromise.

Yeah, the 355 is beautiful but, I am afraid I cannot agree with the other two. I noticed they were all older models as well. I am thinking of purchasing a 80-something or other testarossa. Or if I wait a few more years the 430 should be a hellalot cheaper than its current price tag.

Hmm, I watched the Top Gear video, and the F430 is the first convertible I can remember seeing that looks so much better than the coupe, it's a different car. Usually it's the other way round. But the engine note is by a long stretch the least engaging of any Ferrari I've ever heard. To me, that's big. Engine sound is half the fun of owning a Ferrari, n'est-ce pas?

Have you looked at the Gallardo? 456GT (incredible bargain these days)? 1990s Chevy Impala (the Darth Vader car)? Lotus Elise?

I'd rather have the most expensive, which I would then sell in order to purchase a more practical car (or none at all)

What's rude is not having an option to vote M5.

about to say that myself!! You could buy several vettes for the price of the F430! And the ZO6 is very competitive, IIRC from a R&T / C&D article

The M5 is Bangle fugliness. At least the other choices are 2-door sports cars. The E60 M5 is a disgrace to the name. E39 M5 forever!

I picked the Aston because I figured everyone else would pick the other two.

I'd go for an Aston. It's just a classy vehicle and everybody and their brother will be driving an F-430 from the looks of this poll.

F430 without a doubt. Aston and Vette just don't tickle my fancy like the prancing horse does.

Vette is too in your face. Looks brash and just screams "I'm trying to compensate for something."

The F430 is nowhere near as gorgeous as the 360 Modena or F355. It's design looks like a caricature of the 360 while the interior is a bit stark to me.

The Aston Martin AMV8 is gorgeous inside and out and is just an overall classy vehicle. I'd never be able to use either a F430 or Z06's power on public streets, so I rather look at the Aston and be coddled by that gorgeous interior than the other too.

Gorgeous vehicle:

Not to mention exclusivity. Z06's are everywhere here....Ferraris as well...however, you rarely see an Aston Martin.

Plus the sound of this car is just awesome.

What part of, you do not have to comment on this thread if you are not going to talk about the cars in the title, did you miss? If I wanted to see who likes an M5 and whatever other cars I would have made the thread that way. OBVIOUSLY, I don't. I just want to hear what people think of these three cars. Get over it.

If I had to purchase one, It'd be the vette no contest.

If it was given to me, Ferrari all the way.

I watched a DB9 come out of the parking lot at the local grocery store. If you have a DB9, why are you at the grocery store? Would you even park that thing at a grocery store? That would be the problem with owning something like that. You'd leave the house, get in the car and drive around until you got back home where you could safely park it.
