I brought my '06 F430 Spider in for it's first service today (to fix some nagging issues since taking delivery a couple weeks ago), and much to my...
I have to worry now that I'm a Ferrari owner....;)
Does that mean one should avoid 430's built prior to '08 due to reliability issues?
Same here. I test drove a '08 w/standard CCB and couldn't tell the difference from my '06 without it. I have absolutely zero complaints with my...
My dealer says that the header issue on 430's is greatly exaggerated and that for cars with less than 20K miles, it's rare for them to go bad....
Congrats! Love the scenery in the background! I wish I lived in an area like that. I recently bought a 430 spider and it was a life-time dream...
A couple months before I bought my F430 spider, my local Porsche dealer informed me that they took in as trade an almost mint black-on-black GT3...
Well, my dealer listed all the issues on a work order and they posted the cost for each one as "0" so I think I'm good as far as money out of my...
Well, my car went through $10K amount of work just last year alone before I bought it and it still has issues. I guess it's all part of the...

Well, it's been a week since I took delivery of my 2006 F430 Spider and the "honeymoon" is officially over....there's already some serious issues...
Speaking of TPMS sensors, I think I've read somewhere that the "Challenge" style wheels are not compatible with the sensors. Is that true?

That was quick. Congrats! Personally not a fan of grigio on an exotic but sweet car nevertheless. Enjoy!
How loud are these aftermarket exhausts? I'm thinking about one of these, but I don't want to attract unnecessary attention (i.e. cops) and angry...
I just did some first-time, extended (3 -hr.) driving in my F430 spider today. Over the course of the drive, I've noticed a myriad of squeaks,...
Speaking of cold starts, is there a general consensus here as to when it's safe mechanically for you to drive off? I heard anywhere from 1 minute...
Do you have a link so that I can see a picture of it? Is there any concern about these mounts damaging the vents? (The vents seem kind of...
Anyone try one of those mounts that goes into the power outlet above the handbrake?
Anyone suggest an iPhone holder for F430?
