As much as I love manual tranny's I have to admit the Ferrari's gearbox is amazing! Shifts happen so perfectly and so fast I could totally forget about the manual with this ride, just look at this cockpit!

It truly is an epic car.

And that dual-clutch trans is no joke. Lightning fast shifts, and makes a road course much faster.

Thoughts on the brakes? I noticed a very distinct delay in braking while waiting for the ceramics to warm up, some have it, some don't it seems. It's a great car, but honestly I wouldn't trade my S for one unless I could sell it.

F40 is my all time favorite car and 458 italia is probably my top 5. I got to drive one at the Vegas exotic car racing very fun and very well balanced car.

S4play get rid of some of your toys and pick one up

All Ferrari's after 2008 (I think) have Carbon Ceramic brakes standard.
