Default Dec 3 - TWO Ferrari 430!!!! (yellow, red, preview only)

Sorry guys, I have 60 pics to edit, the two F430, two F40, Gallardo, SLR and some more but you had to see this

CLICK FOR 1600x1200





The red one was placed perfectly I think and with nobody around, begging for pics! The yellow one, they were putting it inside, so I had the privilege to listen to it carefully and then take pics inside the showroom

Enjoy!!

My first 430 and it's two in a day

Damn, TT. You lucky guy, 2 F430's!!! First F430's spotted by a JW-member, I presume?

And how do they look IRL compared to the 360 and the f355?

Well, as long as personal preferences go, for me the 355 is still definitely the best V8 Ferrari to date. Period, but the 430 jumps on the 360, eats it and split out in pieces! If you will put two side by side, I doubt you would give a second glance to the Modena.. maybe in some years things will change, but now the 430 is the big thing IMO!

Now, trying to be objective, it really is a great car, believe me. It sits there, growling and asking for your attention right away! You can't overlook it, maybe in darker colors or silver, but not in yellow or red! it calls you, it want to tease and charm you! Nice from every angle IMO, marvellous to be able to discover every curve on the red one with no fucking body around!

It's bloody nice and personally the wheels on the red one are better than the "old" CS look ones for it.

IMO if the 360 sold very well, the 430 should do even better. Now that we know with the looks goes the performance, I dont' really think there is any other car able to match the 430 as for sheer desirability! it is a hell of a car, I already feel the need to see another one!!

As you may understand I really like it, but should be the same for you all too you will see!

Well I try to push my luck I live in a good area for this, but you also need to put some effort into it to find some rare pearls
For the red one it was totally unexpected.. I only wanted to see the SLR

For the 430, I noticed there was some supect movement in the morning, so I came back in the afternoon and I was right

The 430 is about to become the "Beetle" of Ferraris... Every Tom, Dick & Harry with the spare change is gonna have one - making only about 18% of the 430 owners true enthusisats - and the rest Trust Account users...

There is always a bad side I guess, but we can't pretend Ferrari to make money only selling ultra limited editions and if we want more F40, 50 or Enzo in the future, we have to accept big volume sellers and if they are as sexy as the F430, even better

Yep of course some SLR pics will follow. Luckily they closed the bonnet for me, but it was surrounded by useless ropes and basically impossible to take a good pic.. I hope at least a couple are postable
