Ford GT in that price range over the F430...out of those though the F430...only because it is so much more refined than the vette even though it is "slower."
And I hate how people try to act like the Vette is going to be faster than a Ferarri if they get their hands on one. In fact, they will probably be faster in the Ferarri because it instills more confidence and is more forgiving...to run the vette as fast as it can you need to be an expert driver, turn off SC and TC, and keep the very very wild beast in line...most would wrap themselves around a tree.
With the vette, it just reminds me of a tight rope walker. If he has a long pole he has more mass to move but better balance. If he has a shorter one he has less balance and can move more quickly.
I would rather have the larger pole and be able to keep my life. Plus, IMO I like the exhaust note much better in the F430. Also, due to how I grew up(watch out, personal opinion coming) I must agree with Clarkson. You go to pick up your sister in a vette and say,"Hey baby, show me your titties," and you and your sister have sex in the vette bc your trailer is too full. Whereas, the Ferrari you can drive like a madman and not have to dedicate your life to trying to get everything out of the car. Besides, in the Ferrari you go to pick up a super model or your thin wife, since all you eat is pasta and salad within your family, and screw her in your mansion.
Besides the tidbit about driving, those are my images about the vette and f430. The Aston is in the same family as the f430(images in my head) except you eat broiled meat and oatmeal.
