Just curious on the forum's general perception is of the 16M?

Is it a proper Ferrari or just squeezing profits from the 430 for the final time?

I haven't driven one but I've ridden in a few and it was incredible. It's so much more raw and engaging than the 430 Spider or even the Scuderia.

On my top 5 want list the 16M is number three. If the looks aren't sexy enough the sound is amazing. I think this is a very special car and if I had the money I wouldn't think twice about getting one.

It's awesome.
Get one

It will keep it's value better than a 599, F430 or Italia.

Thanks for the feedback. Would you take a 16M or a Challenge Stradale? Should have made a poll!

@Kristof: They have already come down in price quite a bit, no modern car really keeps it's value except for one or two.

Mike i KNNNEEWWWW it, the next step would be to discuss a 16M/Scud vs CS for me personally, i would go 16M although i L O V E and actually PREFER the 360 looks to the 430. note: i have mentioned more than once that a Scud/16M looks to me like a .. scud/16m and NOT a 430 .. they are THAT different to me with their stances

however i would pick the 16 because:
spider, PROPER SPIDER NOT THAT 458 RUBBISH with soft top + clear engine + added "ease" of maintenance and prospective reliability of a "430" vs a "360"

if there was a CS spider, i would hate to be in a position to be able to choose


edit: Mike do you own any fcar? did you before?
