^ pretty good explanation.Regarding the $80k lambo, that sounds like a realistic price for that mileage.Clean title G-cars can be had for under $100k depending on color and mileage.

Had an 06 Gallardo SE before and now F430, bottom line...Ferrari is much more fun/exciting to drive!

...in your opinion, you mean. Because, by no means is that a fact. IMO, Gallardos are much more fun/exciting to drive and look much, much cooler than the staid F430s.

Yeah. Fiat is known for its outstanding quality and it is so much more desirable than Audi.

That comment should just be deleted because it makes no sense and just shows you're misinformed. Ferrari's interiors are built in house at the factory and they're of very good quality. I won't lie and say they've always been this way. Many of the earlier cars had problems with dash shrinkage and climate control bubbling. Modern technology in leather conditioning and preserving has eliminated that.

I don't think very many people will agree with you and say that the collage of old Audi parts in the Gallardo is desirable. It's been rumored for years that Lamborghini is going to eliminate the use of Audi parts in the Gallardo - we're all waiting for that to happen.

I've owned a Ferrari and a Lambo and I'll take the Lambo interior any day. Ask anyone that has owned both and they will tell you that the craftsmanship in the Lambo is far superior to that of the Ferrari.

Which Ferrari have you owned? I think both cars are very well built, it's not about quality or craftsmanship. It's about the recycled Audi parts. Nobody is saying Lambo interiors are not well built...

What the hell are you talking about?

Has anyone seen "Pursuit of Happyness". Please chime in if you have.

Geez bro, take a chill pill. My questions were meant as a compliment.

You're making yourself look like an uptight exotic car owner.

Someone give him a cup of joe!

What the hell are people talking about with respect to the interiors? One is no better than the other and both can be customized down to the thread or however you want for a price.

Ferrari ***** and switches are better. LOL. God, I'm so glad that I don't go to sleep at night worried about the light switch in my car.

If you ask me though, it's kind of lame that the F430 never included navigation or more complex head unit.

As for prices, F430's are coming down hard too. I remember a few months ago not seeing any below 200K, now ebay is flooded with them in the 180s. Besides, G's didn't sell for 30K over and could be ordered at list with little wait time by anyone.

I think the G-car has a horrible looking steering wheel. Could use revamping.

Looks like something out of a disneyland ride.
