Gallardo with a 6speed. The price differential will be more than anyone is saying. You can get a new G car with 6speed loaded out for 175k. The 430 will be far north of 200k for some time. Styling is subjective, but I like the angular G car.

 

I am on the fence.

While the Gallardo is something I am waiting for, waiting for 05 and hoping the first year issues are fixed, this new Ferrari has got my interest.

 

Both cool cars but F430 without a doubt. The driving position in the Gallardo is a lower back breaker. Unfortunately, the F430 won't be officially unveiled until January 2005 at the Paris show. If the Euro keeps holding against the dollar they say the actual US price will exceed $200K. Also, if you are not a current Ferrari dealer customer that has been invited to make an early deposit for an MSRP purchase, expect to pay $220-$230 for a new F430.
