I'm just lost for words about this beast. Unfortunately, I have not really had time to let it rip, but, in due time. I've seen so many photos of the F430 that it tired me out, because they all looked common. But, having one in my garage enabled me to inspect and appreciate the lines, curves and the complete design of this beast. I am "in love" with this car, it absolutely needs nothing! The sound of the exhaust is "intoxicating", it sounds like how a Ferrari should sound like. I can go on and on, but, I'm sure you've heard it all. One word sums it all "WOW".

Enjoy.

Do you know if the 430 has more headroom than the 360?
I was not able to fit in a 360, 360 spider my head rubbed the roof.

 

Good question, I'm not sure if it does or not. But, I'm sure that someone will chime in and answer this question, if not, I will find out for you soon.

 

Very nice color combination.. classic Ferrari colors. Also one of very few 6-speed manuals I have seen. Nice choice and share some driving impressions once you get some miles on it.

 

Gorgeous car. I find the coupe much more attractive than the topless version, your's is a fine example.

 

All I can say is wow. The carbon fiber is a nice touch. Rosso Corsa is my #1 choice, and Scuderia Rosso is a close second. Congrats!!!

 

Thanks everyone. I wanted a different color than the typical "rossa corsa", but, that would have been a mistake. I love this color and will not want any other color on any Ferrari.

 

Congrats! That is fantastic... thanks for the pictures...

 

great pics!...excellent choice on the 6 speed, thats exactly the spec i would get in a 430

 

addict,
you have PM

 

laj, pm sent

 

Nice, but no carbon brakes, sport seats (or even datonas) and no full CF interior?

 

Roof should never be on in a spider. Shaq drives one...

 

He may own one, but my guess is he has barely driven it. At 6'6" I acn barely squeeze into the 360. How he folds his 7+ frame in is beyond me.

 

i'd do exactly that, minus full carbon, oh yeah, and i'd add a tubi and a f1 tranny
