For what my personal opinion is worth....and it shouldn't be much as its your money: Good choice! As long as you are happy with it....and I think you will be in the end. Something magic about an Fcar and everyone should experience that if they have the means......and it sounds like you do.

Best of luck with the waiting. You should pick up a hobby in the mean time to keep youself busy; something very hard and obscure......and don't get a calendar or some other time keeping device to do a count down. You'll go crazy....and don't program your dealer's phone # into your mobile....cause you'll want to call them saying WTF is it?...and all that. Get used to the fact that it will most certaily be a bit late...I'm sure there is some support group somewhere for expendant Ferrari owners....join it.

Looking forward to pic....did you say what the color combo was?

The 430 is an amazing car..I would wait or buy a used 430 to hold you over. Read the shootouts in the magazines and you will see the 430 always wins.

I'll just put it this way. I don't own a single gold chain, but I do own a 430

The guy in my profile pic would probably go with the Lambo.

/I'm mostly kidding, people.

Murcielago SV? 130kg dropped, removal of the front differential and driveshaft will save 40 kg alone. Other weight savings will come from the use of carbon fiber and magnesium components, lightweight wheels, and the removal of the sound system, 6.5-liter motor could have as much as 680 horsepower and 516 lb-ft torque ?

Also RWD

Your right about the "There's alway something better coming along" and here is a prime example
