    Wonder if it is as fast as the Enzo around Fiorano.

    Those wheels are lame and so is the stripe. Although the new front bumper and interior are very nice! Visually this car isn't as appealing as the CS, but ill have to wait and see one in person to make my final judgment.

    Impressed. I think they did a really great job. Sure there are things I would change and could critique...but that is just about every car.

    I also like that they got rid of the CS name and made something different. Keeps the limited edition 360CS special in it's own right and doesn't get overshadowed by this car.

    Besides if wheels and/or stripe is your gripe...at least those are things you can change or have ordered without. My 2 cents.

    Its cool! I only dislike the color of the stripe and the wheels.

    Maybe this are options like the 360CS had?

    Here are a few shots that is not posted here. I think it is a nice improvement over the looks of the F430. I still don't think it is as sexy as a 360CS, but I gotta have 1...even just to have F1 traction control and 60ms shift time. I hope the US car is remotely close to 1250 kg.

    I really like the front intakes, they look much better than stock IMO. I think the shape of them suit the car better than the nostril style intakes on the stock F430. The slight modification of the intake in front of the wheel is a nice touch too.

    After seeing spy photos of the different exhaust placement, I thought the two exhausts looked great (I've always like them on the Challenge car). I was really hoping that Ferrari would not leave the two holes where the stock exhaust is (like they did with the F430 Challenge) and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. The rear diffuser looks good too. Overall, I think the rear is an improvement of the stock F430. It doesn't look as "busy". I can't really make it out, but I assume that the badge on the rear grille is 'Scuderia' or something similar?

    I was hoping that Ferrari would use wheels similar to the F430 Challenge. The wheels aren't the best Ferrari has ever designed... I'm not really into the gold either...kind of reminds me of the Subaru Impreza. That is the only thing I'm dissapointed about.

    I was expecting the smaller CS style mirrors, but I like the look of the stock mirrors. They look great in Carbon Fibre.

    The slight modification of the side intakes in front of the rear wheel is awesome. It's only a minimal change but looks great, more agressive.

    The stripe looks great, although I think it would look better in white. I've seen pictures of the CS stripe on a few F430's and the lines of the F430 are much sharper than the 360, therefore it didn't suit the car as well IMO. I'm sure the stripe will be available in different colors, if not you can always do it aftermarket.

    The interior is awesome. I like the lights on the steering wheel. The CF paddles look great. I like the seats, especially the red prancing horse. The whole interior is awesome!

    I can't wait to see the Scuderia in more colors;

    Black/Red,Cream,Tan,Black w/ Red stripe*
    TDF Blue/Tan w/ White stripe
    White/Black w/ Black stripe

    *(assuming the stripe will be available in different colors)

    Is "F430 Scuderia" the official name or is it just "Scuderia"?

    Overall I'm really impressed, I would take it over a GT3RS or Superleggera. I can't wait to see one :)

    very nice, I like the seats, they caught my eye the most looks like they used the duel fabrics like the p4/5

    edit actually not really, but it would be cool if they did! :)

    I'm impressed. :)

    I think '430 Scuderia' judging by the badge at the rear.

    woowwww hollyyy
    ok let me catch my breath.....i can't breath..
    this is unbelievable absolutely amazing,one of the best looking Ferraris ever,and if it looks amazing in the official photos that means that it will look beyond imagination in "real life" photos,remember the 599 in the official photos it looked like crap but in other real life photos and in person is amazing.
    This car's power to weight ratio is 0.41 bhp / kg 0_0 it is better than the 599,slr,LP640,gallardo supperlegerra,f430 challenge,F430 GTC (can you believe this),997 GT2(porsche must be pissed now hehe),any production lamborghini ever built,etc.
    I won't surprised if it is gonna be faster than the Enzo both in a straight line and around a track.
    You have to see the overall package,who cares if it doesn't have the smaller mirrors and the wheels don't look too good (and thats pretty much the only negative thing that people can say about it,other than that if someone complains about its looks and its performance should be killed lol)
    I love this car.

    I am sure that this car could be a daily driver,judging by the seats that look pretty comfy.

    Awesome! Looks the part!!!

    I am so pleased that AT LAST THE NOSTRIL styling of the F430 Front Bumper have been redesigned and the car looks so much better because of it. I even like the new stripe. Only thing I am not sure of are those alloys. The F430 Challenge wheels are 100% improvement on these ones which look a little Lotus Elise to me (and please tell me they are not gold???).

    Interior looks first rate! Amazing attention to detail and the Enzo shift light in the steering wheel is a nice touch. Love the instrumentation. Shame it didnt get an 599 style screen for lap timer controls, etc.

    Its x5 better looking than the F430. I'd even consider living with this. Dissapointed they only dropped weight by 100kgs. That should have been 200kgs. Overall still like the 360CS styling better but this is a huge step in the right direction from the stock F430 styling.

    Well done Ferrari on a good job. Thumbs up.
