New F430 video!!!!

I just seen this really nice commercial for the new F430 Modena. It looks way better than those concept pics. Its exactly the same, but the front is just a little different. I'm waiting for the Stradale version of this to come out.

To see this video, you might have to register. Its free, and quick, and WEL worth it.

WATCH IT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPOINTED!

Re: New F430 video!!!!

Ya, I have seen it before. It's a pretty good video. It was taken during the promotional shoot in mexico.

Nice to finally see the F430 in action.

Re: New F430 video!!!!

Thanks

I took the picture from the Autocar website, and it was featured in one of their two articles about the F430. Neutrino posted both Autocar articles in the "Nonspecific" forum. You can read them there:

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=296475

Be sure to tell him thanks, if you do read them. The "Gallardo vs. F430" road test isn't too in depth, but that's where I got the quote and the picture.

Re: New F430 video!!!!

Its really nice. Are they using those BBS rims on it, because I thought they were saving those for Challenge Stradale version.

I dislike the car more now than I did before. IMO they should put the front of the F430 onto the back of a 360. That would look quite good.

I think its the over preportioning of the sharp rear wings, and I was never a fan of the Enzo style rear lights. Nose is nice though...

However, I'm still not going to buy one.

Its funny......this car seems to hit extremes. Some people think this car is automotive god....while others think its the worst thing to hit the road since the Yugo. Very few are....its nice, but not great.

I've had Ferrari's before. I had a bit of an affair from my Mercedes with Ferrari, but that was a long time ago. I keep test driving the new ones, and having a look, hoping for one that I will fall in love with, but for some reason they just don't seem to have the sparkle that they used to have. Which is why I'm back on the Mercs.

Sorry if that offends any Tifosi, but that how I feel.

Its an SL65 AMG V12 Bi-turbo.

I have a small collection of SL's. I also have a 230SL Pagoda, and a 300SL Gullwing. I'm looking to purchase a 190SL ragtop soon.
