Ferrari F430

The Ferrari F430 marks a milestone in the evolution of Ferrari V8 mid-engined rear-wheel drive cars. Presented in 2004, it succeeded the 360 Modena and introduced a new 4.3-liter naturally-aspirated V8, developed with a strong Formula 1 influence, particularly in terms of electronics and engine management. Available as the F430 (coupé), F430 Spider, then as the F430 Scuderia and Scuderia Spider 16M, the F430 embodies a gradual move towards increasingly performance- and driving-oriented models. It will be replaced in 2009 by the Ferrari 458 Italia.
