The 430 Scud is too raw for me to drive every day, i already have the 458 & its perfect around town..I've tried a 997GT3 RS and that was also too "hard core" to make into a daily, maybe i'll try a 991 RS so far i think the 458 is just going to be hard to beat lol

This is what I have heard from buddies have had FF's 430's and had a go in the 458. These same guys have had previous 997 GT3 Ownership after graduating from the typical E46/E90 M3 and ex Honda heads.
You have a 964 C2 (Beautiful), paired with the 458 I'm thinking that would be a well rounded combo.. They are both black too, the best.
Have you driven a Mac yet? I drove my first Mac last year and I can't stop thinking about it.

The 458 is one of the few cars I’ve heard over and over again be called “best car of this decade” I think it’s a very special car, Prices on them seem to be creeping up as people want that naturally aspirated V8 vs all the new Turbo stuff, maybe you should enjoy it for a while then after that get a GT3, there are plenty of 458 and GT3 out there . I saw you sold your 6Speed Manual 360 you bought last year, now that was a car that’s going to be hard to come by again.

driving in traffic with aggression while in a Porsche or in a Ferrari will make you look like an *** doesn't make a difference, while i'm in traffic i drive normally. ..and Ferrari build quality & reliability have come a long way since the 348 355 days..

I don’t mean in traffic. I was talking about just pushing the car a bit more than normal. The shape and colors that usually go with the Italians draws more attention without being loud. In my 997 at least it doesn’t jump out of the crowd. And I still don’t trust that brand for reliability I know they gotten better. Better isn’t good enough for what they charge

I am as about die hard as Porsches as can be.
driven extensively stradale, scuderia, speciale, pista
I hate turbo
but pista is smoothing else.
600LT is WOW...
porsche SHOULD and NEED to be worried.
stick shift or not, a gearbox does not define a car
