I don't care if the F430 is outrunned by a Z06, if I had the money it would be F430 for me. Think we forget about driver skills in this video.

Still have to say that Z06 is impossible to beat when it comes to bang for buck.

So you saying everytime a Z06 drills and F430 into next week it is all driver?

That would mean all ferrari drivers suck

And it seems the Z06 is just impossible to beat.. period..

That's nice for 2 minutes but 8 minutes in the same car is quite boring
Thanks anyway

That's not what I'm saying. It could be the other way around too but from the commentary the F430 guys sound like imbecills. And I think you are right that there are alot of Ferrari drivers that suck. Too much money and too little driver talent. How do the Z06 stack up to the F430 on the TG test track?

^If I remember correctly, the Z06 beats the F430 in the top gear chart

Ferrari 360 CS: 1.22.3

Chevrolet Corvette Z06: 1.22.4

Just appeared to me that the laptime of the F430 isn't on there LOL

But I imagine that if the Zo6 is only 0.01 slower then the 360CS then is has beaten the F430 8)

I don't care if the F430 is slower than the Z06, I prefer it without even blink

Top Gear track counts for crap buddy. It is meaning less.. it is a standing start and so pointless as they have no control over tyres used etc (in other words the cars are sometimes on trick tyres ).

My 2001 C5 Z05 is faster that the 360CS - at the Nurburgring, drag strip, freeway.. you name it...

The C6 Z06 is 10s quicker than the C5 Z06 around the Nurburgring and has been shown to again and again drill the 430 on the freeway, mountain roads and even the drag strip..

Keep dreaming that the F360 and even F430 "are the utimate" - because it is a dream.. they are slow cars

^^ Do you think that If I would have enough money to buy one of this cars I would stop to think wich one is faster on a track ?!? You're completely wrong !! For me, the F430 is just perfect ( like almost all the other Ferraris ). The engine sound is awesome, it looks great, and for what I've seen and read it's great to drive. What more can I ask for ?

That's exactly the same reason why I would never buy a Porsche. They're great cars but they don't have not even a little bit of passion. And when we're talking about supercars that counts a lot ( at least for me ).

Oh and BTW.... I like the Z06 a lot.
