THE 430 Scuderia

haha read this great article this morning when it landed on my doorstep.

 

For what its worth, I was in the factory on 9/24 and about 5-10% of the 8 cylinder (engine assembly, vehicle assembly and cars on shake down runs) production in line were 430 Scuderia. I'm a little suspicious that they may have some issue with the new front and rear valence materials as there were a few 430 Scuderia sitting at the end of the production line without the front/rear valences installed, then again some on the line had them. I have to believe that the first retail deliveries are imminent.

 

Good afternoon, Lucazzo ............I'm international .

 

I think this is the best car in the world.

 

Is that akin to Preferred Stock vs Common Stock? LOL

 

Edmunds Inside Line drove the 430 Scuderia and with the article posted a series of what appear to be new factory photos of the car, cited as coming from Ferrari NA. This is one of them, and this is the link http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/FirstDrives/articleId=122823. My question is, are these factory press shots, or are these Edmunds' own? Because I haven't seen these particular shots anywhere else, and they're pretty striking.

Well, in financial terms there IS a similarity........the "preferred" being a class that usually pays higher than the "common" class .........I don't know if that's what Attilio Ruffo means.

This car is quickly going upwards in my top 10 Third after Zonda F and Carrera GT...

 

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but at what point in the rev band does the first steering wheel shift light go on and whats the gap in between the shift lights
