Do all 5 or 6 stages I forget what stage renntech goes to. Then when you beat his ferrari pull up next to him and drop the top just for the hell of it! I love the f430 but I hear they are a ton of work to keep and tend to be in the shop alot....any truth to this anyone?????

From what I understand, the newer Ferrari's are much more reliable. Evo (british car magazine) did a long term test on a 575 Maranello, and aside from high service costs, they didn't have any major problems with it. I don't think the F430 would have more problems than, let's say, a gallardo or a 911 turbo. F430 is capable of high 11's stock, so you got a tough battle ahead. Not to mention its traction is far superior, making it launch much better than your sl55. You should've bought an SL600/65 if you want to be the top dog lol

Ive heard from a good master tech that the F430 is one of the most reliable Ferraris ever made.....especially in consideration to the performance/reliability ratio....he works on them all the time.

You better go way up the stage ladder just in case...
