599 in my opinion is an old man's car, has no sporty feel to it, ive always liked the looks, sound and driving experience of the F430 over the 599 (was abit dissappointed to be honest). and the scuderia takes the F430 to another level, however u would not have the amenities or comfort level you would from the 599, but the excitement and attention would be double with the Scud; exclusivity, and collector car in my opinion.

The Scuderia all the way.

Scuderia:

599

The performance is pretty much the same but the 430 Scuderia is a F1 for the street and so better looking!

I would say go with your heart on this one. Though keep in mind that the weight savings is very exteme on the Scud. Hell it doesn't even have a radio. This was one of those polls that I honestly did not have a decisive answer for. Scud is awesome and extreme, but the 599 in white is amazing as well...

If you have the roads and you are a true sport driver the Scud is your car ...If you want just another high performance GT car that lacks the edge of a true racer then go for the 599 GTB.....For me this is no question, no comparison, no doubt it must be the Scud all the way!!!!!!
