Re: News on the 430 Replacement

It looks like the front F430 camo extends a good few inches out from the new facia.
Absolutely! I think the front overhang will be remarkably shorter, which will be a good thing for the design.

As long as they don't rob it of trunk space which makes the F430 a uniquely usable touring car

I agree. I seriously doubt it if Ferrari mess with their bread and butter (rear engine V8). Other than 612 and CA I personally have never seen a disappointing design by Ferrari.
Can't wait to see the final product unless Kreso decides to post a pic here now

Dimitri,
Did you have your cell phone with you when you talked to the official or you had to leave it out ?

Kreso will like that. I guess me too.
Stefan, you are always spot on. 
Pics that I saw are CG images that will be on first teasers. Looks is growing on me(good thing). Specs are awsome, just few details will bring some questions and debate here I can already bet about it...
Price is another big ? for me... It will be expensive! Almost Scuderia level... I am thinking about F450 as my ultimate sportscar but, I am not willing to pay 250K € for it(German price for example).

Thank you Kreso. 
Regarding price tag: I was expecting Scuderia level, so let's wait and see how things will turn out...

Joost:
Farina, nice pics!
However, from the little spyshots we have, it seems that the additional inlet/outlet is on the outside of the headlight unit, not on the inside.
-Joost-
Slots on the outside of the headlights look to be the radiator exits - you can see the temperature indicating labels on the light blue test car. My guess at the front and back:

I have never considered buying a Ferrari, was not a big fan, but the shape of the car is appealing. Now I wonder if that would be the ultimate sports car to have ( excluding supercars)
Nicer to drive then a Gt3 RS ?
GT3RS is difficult to better in term of driving pleasure.
One of my latest toys is a Scuderia and although mighty impressive, it's not as rewarding to drive as my RS.
The F430 and the Scud's steeting are too light, it's a shame. But the rest of the car of pretty awesome.

Futch, I agree that the GT3RS or GT2 feel faster than the Scuderia. However, the remarkable thing with the Scuderia is that it actually is as fast as the GT models of Porsche despite the "different" feel...
