F430 replacement

Im actually thinking of getting an F430 this month. my question is when will it get replaced with a new model?

will there be any facelifts or will it remain the same until the replacement model comes?

hey Amaj,

Something in this list doesn't fit. LOL.

2007 Ferrari F430 Spider
2007 Toyota Prius
2008 Porsche Cayenne Turbo

Coming Soon
2008 Ferrari F430 Scuderia


Average MPG of 3 out of the 4 is about 10MPG. Prius at 50 MPG. Just found that funny.

Sorry to the OP for the thread jack. Back to the topic at hand.

Well I just sold the F430. Gave my mother in law my cayenne. Took her SL500 back for lease turn in soon. Canceled the Scuderia and getting a 599. Also should have a smart car soon. So smart car and prius should help my average.

ferrari doesn't really do much in terms of facelifts i've found which is something i like. usually they just go all out and design a new model, but I can't see the f430 being replaced for at least 2 more years. probably for 2010 or 2011 we'll see the next version come out.

Not so sure...at least for the V12s, there seems to always be a facelift. Few examples:
- 512TR to 512M
- 456 to 456M
- 550 to 575

Well the 430 IS the facelift of the 360. So what is your point?

True let me reprhase the v8 models don't really seem to be facelifted. The f430 is more than just a facelift of the 360 it's a different car in so many ways, just as the 355 was unique, and the 348.

I am acutally considering a used one since the car has two more years left...

i ve got a couple of good offers on an 05 model thats in excellent condition

it only needs an extended warranty pack and has some slight destortions in the leather of the drivers seat which the dealer says is covered under the warranty

Why care if it does?

Buy the 430 and enjoy it and then worry about future models later. You'll never get the "Next" model unless you have previously purchased cars from a dealer.

OK first of all the 430 is NOT a facelift of a 360, are you kidding me here?

The 430 replacement will be out in '09 at the latest.
