Looky what I got today...

This was unexpected, but an offer I couldn't pass up! Expect to see a ton of this car, it will be the poster child for 360 Forged 2009. Obviously changing the wheels asap, but it does look sick! Gotta get rid of the 997 now, any takers?

def. powerful but different power, not like the my 997 turbo which sucks you into the seat, this just goes fast and you see it on the speedo, but don't really feel it. It literally sounds like a formula 1 car - it's nuts!

hmm dont know if its actuly an upgrade to the 997 tt
not digging the color, maybe its the angle its taking on.
Plus am sure due to the mods you had that the F car would get tosted, even if you were to mod it..
any way so long as you like it thats what matters

Thanks man! actually has 345's in the back on 13" wheels!
I'll run the same setup, but I'm going to do 13.5" with a .5" larger lip and stretch the tire a little bit - very aggressive.

I agree, performance wise, not an upgrade but Miami pimpin, def. an upgrade and the driving position, suspension, and exhaust sound is way better. Every time you downshift it pops and blips, it's crazy.

Anyways I'm keeping the 997 for a few more months anyways for some projects were working on, so I wouldn't call it a replacement just yet.

naaa, no performance work on this one, it already has Novitec exhaust and Gruppe M intake - it's fast enough for me. I'm kind of scared to drive it hard because it feels delicate to me, and I know it's crazy expensive to fix, so I'll take it easy on her.

Yup, this is Ben's 430 (was) and yes, I'm rolling on HRE's : )
Pretty funny, but new wheels going on next week.

Just got back from driving this thing to and from Orlando for Gatorun. Absolutely incredible and insanely fast on the highway, in fact it walked on my cls63 on NOS! which ran 11.8, so this 430 runs 11's on motor!!! It actually keeps up with the 997 Turbo! Screams through the gears, and the tranny shifts in milliseconds, while backfiring and popping and shooting the occasional flame out of the exhaust. I'm absolutely amazed with this cars performance and driveability, completely not what I was expecting.
