Ferrari F430 Road Test
Modena Cars in Geneva lent us a very special 430 Scuderia which we got the opportunity to test against a 430, 430 Spider and 599. I did not expect the contrast to be that extreme.
Read on or take a look at the pics ...



Oh, we also got to put the car on our corner scales, and here also the comparison surprised us, but in a different way !
Measured back to back, a 2008 430 with CCB and sport seats is only 50kg heavier than the Scuderia. So much for the marketing spin, but heck, what a car !

Wow! Looks really good in matte black! It'd be interesting to see it with the silver stripes too. Great article, thanks for sharing!

IMO, I prefer the matte black over the standard black b/c it appears you can see the shape and lines of the car better.

Flat black is sinister. Menacing. Very nice!

The Matte Black looks very stealthy. First Ferrari that looks super hot with matching wheels. The color combo flows very nice.
