Hi Readers,
Sorry for the delayed update. I was on vacation in Sardinia and saw some beautiful 'domestic' cars. I managed to forget my camera when a F430 parks next to me at the hotel. I am still beating myself up for that.
The Ferrari F430 is the definition of the term 'Italian passion'. This beautiful ride shares many characteristics with it's predecessor the legendary 360. It is designed to be within reach for doctors and good lawyers with the MSRP at $168k.
The 4.3L V8 naturally aspirated engine outputs 483HP and 343 lb ft at 5250 RPM. That gets you from 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds, 3rd best time in the Ferrari road version family!
The 430 has a cool feature called an E-Diff. That is mainly a fancy word for an advanced computer controlled LSD that manages torque on many factors, even the tilt of the steering wheel and lateral acceleration.
Don't worry, Ferrari made sure you will look good in this even if your not that good of a driver. Jeremy Clarkson has proclaimed that "even the most butter-fingered, incapable driver could drive the F430 around their test track only one second slower than the most skilled test driver".
