While the 430 is a wonderful looking car, it doesn't really 'do' much for me - in fact, I'm not smitten with any modern Ferrari. There is something a little too poser about them (especially in red). I have seen a few black 430s and a dark gunmetal coloured one and, in fact, I liked them a lot more. Of course this is a personal bias and 1950s and 60s Ferraris are among some of my favourite cars of all time - the 250 GT California being near the top of my lust list!

Lamborghini don't make 'curved' cars in recent year (well since the Countach), instead seeming to favour angular lines that make the form look more aggressive (than sensual like a Ferrari). I believe, at least in my case, why I gravitate toward Lamborghini design over Ferrari is: if I want a supercar, I want it to look like something spawned by Satan, thrust from the mouth of hell onto the road; not a car shaped by caring smooth hands after a relaxing chill out session at a loved up health spa!

I want evil not love from a supercar grin2

The closest I've come to owning a TVR was with the Sagaris but on first viewing, the drivers door handle wouldn't let me in the car and when I was scheduled for a test drive, they called on the day to cancel because the car had broken down... I figured this was a sign doh
