Challenge wheels, challenge grill, and euro-height? MORE PICS! That is so hot. Tint?

I would definitely take this over a 599 for the price. If you're after the power, then consider Novitec software/exhaust/intake. Should make a nice little bump.

As said earlier: They are two completely different cars. Drive the 599 and see what you like about it.

I'd get a black 458, btw.

The 599 and 612 are truly the KING Ferrari's IMO. I am surprised to see so few of them are around on these forums with all the crazy car collections. I have friends who have Scuderia's and 599's and they both like the 599 far better and one of them is an x-competitor in the Challenge series and usually top 3 finisher so he can drive but his feelings are that the Scuderia is nowhere near a race car and the way he drives he can make the 599 do alot of fun things and be comfortable whereas he finds the Scuderia truly grating to drive for more then 30 minutes and he is an enthusiast he just doesn't see the purpose as it is in no way a race car as many seem to think or imagine he told me to drive in a Challenge car then I will see what a race car is, same argument with the GT3/3RS these are street cars a Cup Car is a race car.

This all being said I would take a 599 all day long over a 430 or any 8 Cylinder F Car.

Since you have a GT3 and you have had the 430 for a while, I would go with the 599. It's a great car, and I am sure you will love it. The one you found at Lamborghini of Dallas looks amazing, you should go check it out.

Do it, 430's are worth nothing right now and the value is dropping everyday.
