Ferrari F430 Challenge Stradale (Super Light-Weight!!)
Ok, hypothetically speaking, if you guys had to choose between this and it's two most obvious competitors (The Porsche 997 GT3 RS and the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera), which one would you choose and why?
The F430 Challenge is probably alot lighter than the Gallardo, but doesn't have AWD. It might be around the same ball park weight as a 997 GT3 RS but has alot more power than the GT3 RS. It seems to be possibly the most dedicated racing sports car out of the 3.

I would take the Ferrari in a heartbeat. Market pricing suggests that the Ferrari is generally considered more desirable. Consider that Ferrari's (most recently 360's and F430's) continue to hold substantial pricing premiums over list after several years of use. In fact, a new F430 Spider currently demands a $100,000 premium over list. On the other hand, Porsche and Lambo depreciate considerably more quickly.
