The 430, introduced in 2004, was the successor to Ferrari's most
successful production car to date, the 360 Modena. Designed by
Pininfarina, and retaining much of its predecessor's aluminum space
frame, suspension, interior layout, and longitudinal V-8
configuration, the 430 was superior to the highly regarded 360 by
every objective metric, while also realizing world-class levels of
performance.
Three years after the introduction of the 430, the 430 Scuderia was
unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show by Michael Schumacher, the
seven-time world champion Formula 1 driver who was involved in the
car's development. The new model was a more lightweight and
track-focused version of the 430 inspired by the 430 Challenge race
car.
The Scuderia was optimized for the rigors of track-day usage.
Courtesy of a new intake manifold, a freer-flowing exhaust, and
higher compression ratio, the snarling 4.3-liter flat-plane
crankshaft V-8 produced 503 bhp and 347 lbs./ft. of torque,
equaling 20 bhp and four lbs./ft. over standard. Connected with
F1-Trac, Ferrari's latest traction-control system, the F1 automated
manual gearbox was recalibrated to effect even quicker shifts.
Extensive use of carbon fiber, lightweight bucket seats, a Lexan
rear window, and the deletion of sound-deadening materials helped
trim almost 220 lbs. The suspension was carefully tuned, while more
aggressive bodywork generated additional downforce. According to
Ferrari, the Scuderia was capable of 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds, with
a top speed of 198 mph. Significantly, the Scuderia not only lapped
almost two seconds quicker around Ferrari's iconic Fiorano test
track than the standard car, but it reportedly also matched the
Enzo.
This particular Ferrari Scuderia was completed in October 2008,
finished in Rosso Scuderia, and delivered new to Ferrari of Tampa
Bay in Florida. Already well equipped with carbon ceramic disc
brakes, automatic climate control, GPS navigation, and extensive
carbon fiber trim inside and out, this Scuderia was additionally
optioned with a fire extinguisher, brake calipers painted in body
color, black Alcantara upholstery, rare factory-painted gold
wheels, iPod integration, and contrasting racing stripes - all
noted by its original window sticker, which listed a suggested
retail price of $299,183.
Accompanied by its original owner's manuals, tools, tire inflator,
battery tender, and covers, this desirable, limited-production
Ferrari displayed less than 400 miles on its odometer and presents
in exceptional, time capsule condition throughout. One of the most
collectible modern-era Ferraris, this offering represents an
uncommon opportunity to acquire a beloved dual-purpose road and
track racer that still remains in pristine condition nearly a
decade after leaving Maranello.
This car was judged at Cavallino in 2019 and received a Platino
Award & also was selected by the judges as the "Greatest 8 cylinder
Ferrari."
This is a True "Investment Grade" Modern day Ferrari that is
probably the Best 430 Scuderia Example you will find.
