    I have the same radio in my car. It is Ferrari OEM and I had it installed by the dealer. It should also have a backup camera. The difference between this version and the OEM Becker unit is that it includes a trim piece that bumps out the unit so the screen clears the vents.

    Edit: Forgot to mention that this is made by Clarion. User interface is ok but not great.

    You can always add it. I believe the camera can be purchased separately. The head unit should be plug and play, so just need someone to run cable from unit to back of car. Let me go downstairs and snap a picture of the camera placement.

    Yes they do and if you look in the back they have something called an engine, a very useful extra.

    I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I turned on the radio on my F430 when I was test driving it to be sure it worked, and not since. If I was doing a long road trip I'd use it. But long road trips are rare beasts in this car.

    Obviously the car does not have an SLine exhaust... Get one and forget the radio.

    Just found my old invoice. Install was done almost 3 years ago for $1,170 (this also included install of rear camera, GPS antenna, and new window switch). Total cost for the radio and camera was $1,945. Below is some literature I found on the radio.

    Just like any other cars. Any audio shop can do it.
    I did it myself, replaced the stock Becker with a Pioneer flip up
