    Saw that Green one on the assembly line in Maranello September 14th. To me it looked lighter than the new GT3RS green.

    Thats got to be awesome to spot that car on the assemble, kmowing one would have to wonder where the car was heading, and violia, you come across an F-Chat thread with the answer, Cool!

    BTW" I like it, and the F430 is stunning in Pearl white w/red interior.

    That could be the ugliest Ferrari I have, paint it red, yellow, black, silver, or even blue, but for the love of God anything else should be off limits.

    I was thinking he might have been shooting for the green that's in the Italian flag but the car is a few shade's lighter. Like or dislike the color he's still driving a 599 right?

    I kind of like it, i agree that the interior looks bad but the black rims and the green look really good, I don't care for the yellow calipers though

    that car wants to be a VERDE ITHACA MURCIELAGO when he grows up
    that's why it was ordered that way ...

    seriously; that's the impact of LAMBO being that bold when it comes to colours.

    and I assume hte guy who ordered green has has several Ferraris in the past and he's done with that RED thing

    I would love to know the serial number. I think the car looks amazing. Black wheels with green lines under the rims...? Beautiful...! I wonder why the owner went with yellow calipers as opposed to paying Ferrari that much more to paint them green... More pictures if you got 'em, please....

    Well, I was one up since we asked the Ferrari Tech on the assembly line what country the car was being built for. Of course it was the USA.

    I love that White 430, I'd still like to see one white/black. Most white F-cars are always white/red.

    a few weeks ago Stephen Colbert was talking on his show about having ordered a lime green 599... perhaps he knew about this car....

    I also have a green GT3 RS and IMO that green colour is fantastic. Everytime I see that colour it makes me happy. Not sure I would want to match other cars to it though...

    I have a Maserati in Bianco Fuji and it is an amazing colour. Red interior is wrong though IMO on the 430

    I like the car! That colour green with black wheels looks awesome!!! :):)

    The best part about it is.............the owner seems daring as he is doing something different to everyone else. I respect that. :):)
