Default help me drive a f430

i really want to see how great that car is. can anyone think of a realistic way to get to drive one for just 10 min or so on a good road? i'm not down with renting one from budget for 2000+ a day. i know it's asking a lot, but there are some pretty smart people here. smarter than me, anyways.

Get a job as a valet at an expensive restaurant and await your opportunity. Pray to your deity of choice that you don't get caught.

Rent a limo for one hour and have the driver deliver you to the front door of the showroom.

This might actually be the best way.

Make sure you wear some tacky, expensive clothing too.

most expensive cars now a day will require a credit check or something before you can test drive it.

Ha ha... unless you are a household name, or ACTUALLY have oodles of money (as opposed to just looking like you have oodles of money...), there is no freaking way you will get to test drive an F430.

Your best bets:

(1) Go rent that shiny red one sitting on the lot on Little Santa Monica Blvd across from the old Beverly Hills Budget (HA!) rent a car.

(2) Make good friends with someone who has one, and save his/her life, leaving them eternally grateful to you
