I even tell the sales department and some really close customers.

360 6 speed manual coupe, after 2001
I know, less power than 430 and 458, but reliable.

Reason being:

Convertibles give problems.
F430, stuff breaks, mounts, manifolds,etc.
Also, Unless you have an extra $17,000 for a complete F1 system if there ever is a pressure problem(similar to the ACD system) don't get it. Problem is they all pretty much came with them.

Of course, just my opinion.

We all would have in the beginning of the job, but it all gets old.

I actually get more excited to work on evos if you can believe that.
