as far a scud vs cgt - no warantee, no stability control (explains the many crached cgt's), difficult clutch, and insane $ of carbon repairs even if slight damage make cgt much less practical than scud. i love the cgt and will be a true collectable in 50 yrs but im afraid of it.
These cars aren't about practicality.

If it was me and I was gonna upgrade to something, it would be a CGT. But they're your cars, get what you want.

I own both and as well - 07 RS and 07 F430/F1 - I would trade the F430 for the Scud in a heartbeat and keep the RS - then you will have to ultimate pair - If you have the opportunity and the sale of the RS in not required by the dealer - spend the extra $$$ and have both - you can't drive your stock portfolio and in this market you will probably loose less $$$'s in the Ferrari.

Well Phillip, I guess it is unanimous; your are keeping your 430 and RS and not trading them for the Scud. Isn't Rennlist great?!!!

my humble opinion.
RS is a great street car that can be used on track
430 is much like the RS.
430SC is b/n RS and a GT3 cup car. i dont find it to be of much use on the street. if you have the resources and guts to hammer the SC on track all day long, that's the way to go. if you intend to use it as a street car, i think you be much much better served by F430 and RS.

yes, do it

you're trading about 310 wholesale value for a scud that 120 over is 370-410. 120 over is cheap right now

Keep the RS and trade the 430 for the 430 SC. Best of both worlds. If that is not an option I would stick with what you have, two great cars.

If you don't drive the RS, at least not as much as it should be driven, than sell both and get the Scud.

I've got a different idea...if you really want a "more spartan and track ready" ferrari

Keep the RS, sell the 430 and get yourself the 360 challenge stradale. Use excess capital to do whatever you want with...like buy a ton of spare parts and thrash both of them on street and track. Or take the difference plus a few bucks and get yourself a track only car (996gt3, exige cup, gt3 cup car, whatever)...

I've not looked at Scuderia asking prices and am not aware of your 430's value, but I think the 360CS is between 175-190k and much better looking than the 430 family of cars.

watt- you're saying that the 430 @ 190 and GT3RS @ 120 is his value? I think you're at least 20k low on both, if not more.

No way I'd do that trade. RS is nearly the SC equal, close enough. The 430 is a beautiful car. You have the perfect pair of cars now. No need to spend more money. You'll have a harder time parking it. Enjoy what you have.

No way in hell, but I would trade the F430 for a Stradale and keep the RS as well
