Wow...is it just my untrained eye or does Ar-bling's CS look so close to the 430? I know the back of the 430 is very different but overall, very close.

Much of the design on the side of the 430 is straight off the CS (including the logo on the gas cap!). The similarities are even more prevelant when a 430 is equipped with the optional challenge wheels. I like the fronts of our CSs better than the 430. the rear is the main difference between a CS and 430 and if the 430 isn't red, it looks real goofy as the big red round Enzo lights and red rectangle lights in the bumper are too heavy. Incidentally, the visable air baffling at the bottom of the rear bumper is straight off a CS too.

Arling - I'd take your CS over a "normal" 430 anyday....

I need to come up to Lucent to drool over the CS sometime... But then I'd end up tossing coilovers in my weaksauce 996.

there is no doubt newer technology & more hp are always good but yea albert CS is much different than a normal 430. while i still enjoy the exterior look on the CS but the homerun Ferrari hit was the CS interior as well.

imo if u put CS next to 430 the 430 will always looks like a normal street car while the CS shines like a race car. and that will remain years til the CS version of the 430 come out. i'm with ben i love the CS front much better than 430, but ben i want the 430 steering wheel though that's just cool!
