Found some pics of the upcoming Light Pista at the Nürburgring. Must be final testing I guess. Also check this video of Light Pista at the factory: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x3MaqL81UY Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Well, it appears as if they've been working on the aerodynamics a bit. Looks like we should get a revised design for the front and rear bumpers as well as the side panel with the lower air intakes. I can only hope for a 430GT look! There's a revised diffuser as well. It looks wider and taller. This one has 3 fins on either side as opposed to two on the current car. Also the center section has more of an upward curve.
First photo appears to show name 'F131EVO' embossed into plastic Is there any space for a rear number plate & light ?
If I'm not mistaken this was the internal code name for the F430. So, it looks like they've just used one from the 430 for the new LP.
Challenge car front fenders ??? Something's up with running those front wheels ... different offset (reason for challenge fenders?) ... AWD? Will definitely have visual aero mods that everyone was clamoring for. G
That diffuser is bad ass. The F131 is the motor in the 360 (F131B for CS). The F131Evo is the motor in the standard F430, so that doesn't tell us much.
Until now I don't see many cosmetic changes but I'm liking a lot the rear diffuser with 3 fins on each side. Hope it stays like that.
Funny I thought it looked a tad longer. The engine sounds great in the video. I wonder if they'll change the side mirrors at all for the production version.
E diff more than makes up for AWD . will be interesting to see if they pull the E diff out of this car , like they have in the challenge car . i reckon they will leave it in the 430 LP .
There's definately something fishy about those front wheels...During testing, you would think they would want to throw off the spy photographers by keeping it as close to a regular 430 look as possible... There has to be some specific reason to have those wheels on the front of that car.... I would have thought they'd have made a wider regular 430 wheel if they eeded to accomodate a wider front tire...but I think there's more to it than that, and I don't think it's AWD, particularly if it's the 360 challenge stradale replacement......hmmmmm
F131 EVO is the factory name of the standart F430, all the F430 have this inscription on the protection
Of course they will leave it in. LP is a road car. Challenge car is a race car and the E diff is too fragile
