    love the sporty interior, especially the floor. cars look so much better without carpet (enzo, zonda). carpets look cheap, age easily, and collect dirt. alternate materials look so much richer and bespoke.

    So they are bigger than your usual mat and can not be detached unless you take the seats out ? I really dont remember seing them being a different part than the floor.

    I would like to see what the stripe options are, it would seem that you can have other color combo strips based on the design shown.

    I love the gold wheels. I believe Ferrari had used gold wheels way way back in the day. I've always wanted a 2nd set in gold for my CS...not a bright gold, but a dirty gold like it has been covered with brake dust. I do prefer the BBS style wheels on the CS, but I really like this set as well.

    CS has rubber mats on the floor, they are screwed in and is very easy to tear it out of the screws as you step out if you are not careful or a bit heavy footed on an angle.

    The carbon steering wheel is a nice touch. The interior while spartan like a CS, is nicely updated and added some netting that will proof useful. The press photo with all black interior looks menacing. I wonder what the seat cushion material is like, as it looks like some sort of a mesh, probably will be a cool material to sit on that might vent better. I like the name 430 Scuderia without the F in F430. The ride height looks terribly high, so that needs to be remedied...but most of the styling cues on a F430 that don't sit well with me are resolved...but I WANT MY HORSE BACK ON THE GAS CAP PLEASE!

    Done ranting...love it, come take my money.

    Many Dino race cars, and the 512 and 312s had the "dirty gold" wheels, if I remember correctly. The stripe could look better; perhaps it does in person. I want one badly...

    You can see that the direction Ferrari are going is a more avant-garde design to keep in stride with Lambo and other supercars.

    The gold on the rims and the design are reminiscent of the campagnolo race wheels used back in the day. Reminding me of how the P4/5 rims are retro'd

    The new grille openings I definitely think will be very close to what we'll see on the next '430'.

    Love to know where they're getting the additional 27HP??? Does the CF intake increase flow? Is it software?

    Is it just me, or does it look like the rear flap is a little taller on this Scuderia version of the F430 than the standard F430 Coupe? Kind of similar to the size/height difference between the 550 and 575 rear flap.

    There seems to be more space above the middle brake light in these pictures than on the standard F430 Coupe. True?

    Very nice looking car. I own a 2006 F430 Coupe and I can't imagine what 27 more hp and 220 lbs less weight would be like.

    And where the weight was lost could make a huge difference in handling.

    Looks good to me. The wheels would look great in silver or dark grey. Otherwise it is perfect.
