Thanks again Nick. That's good news.
Guys,
What's the deal w/ the tires ?
It comes w/ Bridgestones right but you can order Pirelli PZERO's or Michelins ? Which Michelins ?
Would you order the PZERO's ??????
I have the PZERO's on my 997 S cab.

I really want to like it. The thing is the way I'm optioning the car it will be about performance. CCM's. Racing Seats, No hi-fi radio, No nav, etc. so the CF rear grill from the challenge car would fit in that theme. It's not that I dislike the way it looks so much as I think the way the rear of the car looks stock is so cool, my favorite part of the cars design actually. The stock smallish wide wire mesh Enzo type rear grill is bitchin. Still may change my mind though, I'm going to have to see one in person. Good luck!

Get the PZERO's. The Bridgestones have had problems and factory drivers claim better performance with the PZERO's.
Only problem it may delay your build date. Make sure the PZERO's are available.

I had the same objective as you when I was speccing the F430 ...it had to exude performance.
My options include Scuderia Rosso Exterior and Caliper, CCM, Racing Seats, STC2 stitchings, Standard Radio without Satnav, and CF Rear grille and CF steering wheel.
The CF rear grille looks mean IMHO.

Hi STRADALE,
My options for the F430F1 are:
Scuderia Rosso Exterior and Caliper color
Carbon Ceramic Brakes
Racing Seats (Red)
Black leather Interior with STC2 stitching (Red)
Standard Radio without Satnav
CF Rear grille
CF steering wheel
Rear Parking sensors
Future: Tubi Exhaust system
The material of rear grille of the F430 Challenge appears rather plain from the many pictures we have seen. However the CF grille option that is provided by the update option list for 2007 appears to have the distinct typical Carbon fibre weave pattern on the grille.
FWIW, I believe Ferrari designers will not simply incorporate a new design feature if it does not look pleasing to the eye. Their designs have always aged well over time.

look behind the 599. It's a picture of a 430 spider with the new challenge grill. First one I have seen on a spider. Looks pretty good.(pic from FChat)

Rossi,
Yeah, First 430 I've seen w/ Challenge Stradale seats & alcantara dash/doors.
Did you buy mats ?
I need quality black mats w/ red border, any ideas ?
You didn't do the HI-FI right ? Do you have a pic of your shelf ?

I really like the alcantara look although I don't know, if I ordered it.
I'm currently thinking about mats, but haven't decided yet. But I guess it's far easier for you to get appropriate mats in the US than here in Europe, where each attempt of using Ferrari badges, logos etc. by an independent maker is savagely prosecuted by Ferrari lawyers.
Sorry, no pics of the inside of my car so far. But I don't have the HiFi option (nor the navi) and I didn't regret this decision for one day.

RE: HI-FI. I knew going into my order today that I didn't want it. I never used the optional radio in my CS but now after my order is in, I'm second guessing myself. Dun no.
