Ferrari F430 or the Gallardo. Which would you buy?

kkr2k2 · 5th January 2007, 21:23

F430 for sure will turn heads....
but lambo will make the people turn their heads and make them look at it as long as it is visible on the road.

So lambo is the one which wins over f430.

Ferrari F430 anyday..... The prancing horse logo is pirceless....

One thing is that if someone gifted me either car, I would die of ecstasy

But I would side with the Ferrari.

Both cars are good , exciting to own , The Lamborghini Gallardo is a german engineered car and the Ferrari is fully italian.The F430 is very pleasent to drive , full of tech with the Manetino and the Electronic differential.Problem is that it need to revs very high to get power so not very easy for a daily use.The car is sportiest of the line up by Ferrari after the Enzo.In the next future there might be coming a AWD version.

The Lamborghini has got a 5.0 liters or 5.2 liters for the recent versions V10 origin : AUDI 3.0 liters V 6 engine but tuned by Cosworth which was or is still property of VAG.The AWD makes easy using the Lambo daily.According journalist the E gear is not as fast as the F1 gearbox
from Ferrari made by Magnetti Marelli.

I would go for the Lamborghini because Lamborghini is more exclusive than Ferrari , it is better for a daily use , AWD so dont mind about the weather, bigger displacement than the Ferrari more torque.But take it with manual transmission.The best Gallardo is the SE

NONE.

IF lambo then the MAD : Diablo or the Murcielago
and
IF Ferrari : the Perfect 355 FI Spider

I will go for F430.........

awini · 6th January 2007, 01:16

both, ill have the ferrari in bronze please, and the lambo in orange,or lime green... the ferrari is a gentlemans express, the lambo belongs to a cad

gemballa · 6th January 2007, 04:12

hmmmmm......to be different i chose the gallardo its a good car to look at but the ferrari is far better to drive.....btw i have driven both.....the 430 is awesome and perfect in many ways while the gallardo deff needs improvements,....not to mention tht the gallardo has worst gear box i have ever experienced in any 4 wheeled car.....as for the comment bout the gemballa porsche....it looks awesome and would urinate all over the friz and gallardo totally different ball game no comparison

iraghava · 6th January 2007, 05:33

I would actually choose the 430 CS version when it comes out, totally hardcore!! As for Lamborghini's well the only one I like is the Murcielago! So GOD if you're listening make mine a LP640 in Orange with the manual gearbox please

I think you would have to bargain with the DEVIL for the Lambo

I would rather like to own a Porsche 911 Turbo instead, cause a Lambo can give nightmares there.

But, given a choice to drive between the two (and the F430), the Murcielago would be the one.

Shall we stick to just the F430 and Gallardo only fellows? Keep the Murcis for another day or should I say thread?

cheap_deal · 6th January 2007, 19:47

the F430 for me, just to confirm it does come with a PROPER gearbox right? (no flappy paddles for me)

rahul_intlad · 7th January 2007, 01:46

Me an ardent ferrari fan.Its the ferrari F430 for me.

danlalan · 7th January 2007, 04:30
