It doesn't feel like your enemy at the limit, like the rear-engine 911's
It doesn't do most of the work for you like a GTR.
It connects you to the road better than any AMG I have driven.
And it doesn't have the e-diff issues the Cayman S has.
I have never driven a 458, or a McLaren
I was choosing it over the other cars I have actually driven and said so in my first post.

Yes, I never turned the steering wheel. At all. I just went in a straight line. You're getting caught up on feelings. Look at the numbers. It is a slower car than 2/3 of the list. If you're paying to drive something at an event like this, make it something worth driving. I did not feel the F430 was worth it. You did. That's great. Knowing what I know now, I'd rather have driven the other options. Pretty much any of them. You disagree. Fine.
