    Forgot to ask,

    What is the red car that you can see the side and front of in your pictures in the first post of this thread? Looks like an Enzo.

    Not at all. I have zero problems with Cuoio. Of course, I always do keep my car clean. I just use a slightly moist cloth and wipe the leather inside. If I take a picture of the car now and compare it to the ones I made when I took delivery there will be no difference.





    Thanks for the nice words. I replied to your PM.

    Yes, Switzerland bans motorsports. And it's true what you read because people are trying to change that. They will pass a voting end of this year (I guess) to see whether to amend that banning law or not.





    Yes, it was an Enzo. Those pictures were taken the day my car arrived. The dealer parked my car inside the shoowroom because he wanted people to see the color combination.

    I am not that good, but thank you for the compliments.




    1- The name plate is an option. It can be taken off and on in seconds be unscrewing the 4 pins.
    2- The carbon fiber paddles are part of the Carbon Fiber Driving Zone option. It covers the paddles, steering wheel, half of the center console, and the background around all the counters.

    I just received my "mini" F430 from Cavallino Models. I must say that I am very impressed. They know exactly how to detail cars and the quality is beyond what I expected.
    The only thing though that would have made the model identical to the real car is the CF that I have inside the car. I know it must be a pain in the neck to detail a model's interior and I understand. Other than that, the model is just perfect.

    Thanks to Cavallino Models.



    Have a look.

    P.S. The last couple of pictures were taken in a dark room with a single light source coming from a flash light.

    Enjoy :D

    the F430 is not listed at Cavallino model's website. what is the est price? is yours based on a Bburago or Mattel.

    wasn't aware there was this service.. was initially thinking of getting a mattel F430 and painting it on my own

    We are in the process of building new website, so all new models have not been updated. Model is based on Mattel. Burago never made F430 and they are out of business. Yes we do custom models. Let me know what you looking for and I will let you know if we can make it and how much it will be.

    Thank you for kind words. It was a pleasure building model of your car. Sorry about CF. Hope some day we will be able to add this to our custom models.

    i love your car. i love everything about it. the thing that i love the most about it is the full couio interior. it really makes it look so perfect.. i really believe that couio is more traditional ferrari color than tan IMO

    little bro wrangled the f430 from ya and you had to buy the 612 huh? :)
    needed a big roomy car?
    i guess the 599 is next?
    great pics as usual!
    need to put the 612 in your profile.

    i was surfing the net and ran across some pics of a silver m-b cls55 amg.
    and they had "nasharty" on them.
    one of your old cars?

    best,
    jeff

    Hi Nasharty,

    Beautiful car and beautiful pictures.
    I just received my F430 last week. It has the same exterior colour, Grigio Silverstone with the yellow calipers and shields, but the interior is black with light grey double stitching. I will have some pictures made and post them, but they will definitely not be as good as yours.
    By the way, I know a few Nasharty's here in Cairo, could you be related?

    That's really cool Nasharty. Very nice model. That way you can drive her and take her to bed at night ;). You will never miss her.
