430 ORDERED

I'll post the first pic at 1600 and the rest directly on here. If you want larger let me know. I had to use a pretty **** widish angle lense and I badly need a more powerful flash.

Only the passenger window was open so I only took the one interior pic, didn't turn out well. The 430 is in desperate need of a buffing.

good pics..thanks heaps..now i'm really excited..PP are you excited at a RED ferrari?

 

Have you driven an F430 yet (someone elses/dealer car)?

 

no just like the CS...buy the car and then get a test drive

 

the first job is to lower that car a mile...it looks like a 4wd

 

then some 22" chrome rims, neons, carbon fibre rear wing, and some stickers on the side.....

 

she is no ricer

 

sorry, got confused - I put that stuff on my WRX and thought it would look great on your car too.

 

Hehe I did that with my car as well

I'm sure they've got it right
Why did you get the carbon brakes? I thought the iron discs work fine, and cost a heap less.

 

it's good to have for track days and the rotors won't wear out while i have the car so it's just pads that will need changing. when there's 500k worth of car on the track , it's good to have the best possible equipment on board.

 

Scud - this article may be of interest to you.....

scud

what do you do re: rego and stamps, when you buy in Victoria and drive back......?

 

maybe the journo should've done a bit of research first - handy to know how to start the car before the test.

 

rego and stamps are qld. stamps are cheaper in qld than victoria.
just made it back. left melbourne 230am brisbane time and arrived 730pm brisbane time so 17 hours and about 1700 clicks in 1 day wasn't too bad. car needs a good wash and then some photos will be taken this saturday and i will give a major report but first impressions are very impressive and maybe it's that good that i may not go back to the CS . stay tuned

 

That's some impressive motoring - and a story in itself no doubt.

Can't wait to hear the report.

 

that is a given. how do you register it in Qld when it is interstate ?

look forward to the report

 

Good to see you made it back - I actually forgot thats where you were.

I really look forward to your driving impressions and some more photos.

 

the dealer in melbourne gets a guy in brisbane to fill out the forms. i had already sent down the plates to be attached. i had to supply my cousins home address as they can't sell new cars outside their state so when i get my letter from luca congratulating me on the purchse it has a victorian address on it

 

I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for that correspondance if I were you.
When my Father bought the 308 in 1978 he got a letter from Ferrari; but all the cars since.................ZIP.
Luca puts pen to paper for the F50 and Enzo though.

 

aaah ha - so simple, yet so complex
congrats on the purchase btw...

are you up for a track day at QR next friday ?

 

i recieved a letter from him for the 360 spider purchase in 03 but it was a photocopy and not the real thing....better than nothing
