You, sir, are obviously a man of exquisite taste. Well done.

Oh wow. They are awesome cars. Please drive it like you stole it. That means putting more than 200 miles on it in the next decade.

Thanks will report or maybe Shelby can. (he has been the shakedown driver)

I already have the plate picked out "FHenry"---that's a joke, son(bad Foghorn Leghorn impression)

Talk about a funny plate. An FHenry next to a FEnzo:lol

The 458 is an amazing car. And a gorgeous stablemate for your GT. Congrats.

Terry insisted I drive the car home last night to give it a good road test. As bad as I did not want to, I gave in.... :)

All I can say is the 458 is the ONLY car I would consider giving up the GT for

Key word there was "CONSIDER"
IF I could only have one, then would likely stick with the GT, but Damn the ferrari is nice and an absolute BLAST to drive. IF I had to leave the cars is stock form, I would likely take the Ferrari.... but modded, the GT hands down

Enjoy your new F458. It is pretty awesome. I've put about 1100 mi on mine. Very different than the GT.
I feel very fortunate to have both to play with right now. For me, like most here, the GT is the long-term keeper.
In 3 yrs there will always be a newer faster Ferrari. In the meantime, the 458 is really nice.
Only thing I'd consider getting rid of my 458 for (mind you I already have a GT) is a Carrera GT or McLaren's new toy.

Very well said, there will always be "the new kid on the block", but when you have a "classic", until you fall out of love with it, you keep it.

Agree with others--a GT is a keeper and the 458 is a fun place holder
