Wow what a gorgeous car this is! As you approach you'll notice the
brilliant silver exterior paint with the black convertible top and
of course the Scuderia Ferrari shields, all of which are in near
perfect condition! The paint is extremely smooth and still has a
very high gloss shine. The entire hood and front portions of the
front quarters are protected with a clear bra. The wheels are free
of any major scratches and look fantastic.
Inside is much the same as the exterior. The black leather Daytona
style seats are in fantastic condition. This car is equipped with
the colored dash, and all functions work as they should. Pop the
top down, strap yourself in, and put your favorite tunes on, summer
is here soon!
Here's Car and Driver's take on the F430:
"One button pushed for 20 seconds drops the top of the new Ferrari
F430 Spider into its lascivious splash of aluminum bodywork. Yes,
just 20 seconds to a new and brighter you! Need more? Now try the
button on the steering wheel, the one that says "Start." Suddenly,
you hear that sonorous purrrrrr, fast, fat, and deep, like a Bengal
tiger getting its tummy scratched. That's a 483-hp, 4.3-liter V-8
tugging on your leash, so you'd better want to run.
First gear stretches out to 8500 rpm, howling to make your shanks
shake. Second gear should get you 60 mph in about 3.6 seconds and a
misdemeanor conviction in four flat. Keep the hammer down through
third, fourth, and fifth, and sixth will burn your scalp clean off
at 186 mph, or so Ferrari claims.
Coupe and spider share all their tech goodies, including the E-Diff
electronic differential and self-adjusting Skyhook suspension. The
spider carries another 150 pounds, mostly in the roof mechanism and
steel rollover hoops. Seven electrohydraulic motors fold up the
canvas top and stack it flat in a tiny compartment hidden under the
headrest fairings.
Because Ferrari designed the F430's cast- and extruded-aluminum
skeleton for both tintop and topless duty, just 22 pounds go to
frame reinforcement, all in the doors and rocker-panel boxes below
the doors. Twisting and bending stiffness increases over that of
the old 360 Spider. As the F430 thumps over rough pavement, the
steering wheel and the floor are almost as jiggle-free as
Francesco's marble columns.
Wide, squat, and busied up with air dams, exhaust tubes, and mesh
screens, the spider resembles the Millennium Falcon from the back
as it screams past morning commuters in their microcubes. As with
the F430 coupe, Ferrari credits both Pininfarina and Mini Cooper
chief designer Frank Stephenson with the spider's look. (Stephenson
has since moved on to more mundane work within Fiat.)
Chopping the top reduced the F430's aerodynamic downforce, so the
spider's tail spoiler rises to a higher peak to help make back the
difference. At 124 mph, the spider is sucked to the road with 245
pounds of downforce and tracks with precision. Corners are quick
work; a hand twitch cuts the apex, and the body stays flat.
Life is surprisingly quiet at speed. A transparent polycarbonate
wind blocker between the seats helps keep hats in place and the
conversation two settings below shouting. Automatic exhaust-pipe
valves turn up the wail under hard acceleration, but they open
later in the spider-4000 rpm instead of 3000-if you set the
manettino to "low grip." The manettino is the rotary switch on the
steering wheel that lets the driver fit the suspension, traction
control, and stability settings to the mood. With the manettino,
shift times also vary. In "race," they bang home in as little as
0.15 second for that extra-quick lap time."
At the Motor Car Group, we're enthusiasts first. We want you to
enjoy your new car from the minute it's delivered and the trailer
door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, it's gone through
comprehensively, both visually and mechanically. We do more than
just kick the tires, though: We fill your tires with nitrogen, road
test (if the weather permits us here in Cleveland!) and clean it
inside and out. We buff the paint using a three-step process
immediately before it's taken away so that it gleams when it
arrives. Every car we sell, from Sunday drivers through the rarest
exotics, is meant to be driven-get out there!
If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not
