without knowing why you're asking this question, all i have to say is that anyone who buys the f430 now will never be truly happy..they will die a little every time they see a 458 italia on the road..looks, performance and handling; the 458 is so much better than the 430, it's not even a comparison; unless you wanted a ferrari just for the sake of having a ferrari..in which case anything goes..a used 430 goes for about 650000..an italia about 950000..just 300k for a car that's worlds better..no brainer i say:-)
