New twin-supercharged Ferrari F430

drdre

the F430’s V8 has been significantly reworked; the two superchargers have their own lubrication system and intercoolers, reinforced drive belts, new injectors, an oil cooler and a reprogrammed ECU. The result of which is a mighty 656bhp and 470lb/ft of torque just four horsepower and 14lb/ft shy of the Ferrari Enzo. Performance is also within a whisker of Ferrari’s flagship, 0-62mph takes 3.7 seconds versus 3.6 and a top speed of 217mph against 225mph,









What do you guys think, I think it looks amazing in white

Nice looking machine....
Only problem I'd have is, the lad who cycles along the hard shoulder of the N17 most mornings would still beat me to Claregalway

Its rear end looks a bit "busy".

Ferrari have made better looking cars IMO.

I'd rather a s/h F40 anyday!

Ferrari goes to Japan IMO. Would prefer a 360 even over the original 430 which I never had much time for.

I thought superchargers always had their own lubrication system? Mine does and it's a glorified 2001 truck engine

I really don't like the back of the 430, lights are too high. 360 back is perfect. I just think the 360 runs perfect from front to back.Also the low vents and lights on the front of the 360 work better than the ones on the 430.
