2008 Ferrari F430 Spider Only 1,270 original miles Perfect inside and out! Red interior and tachometer Titanium accent package! Navigation F1 transmission Italian magic, wrapped in aluminum: That pretty much sums up the F430 Spider. Lithe, gorgeous and spectacularly competent, these open-top cars inspire lust with a mere glance or a half-throttle pass by. It"s all a couple downshifts away, and you"re unable to resist. Magic? Sure, maybe a little, but it"s wrapped in pure Italian soul. We believe black-on-black-on-black is the ultimate color combination, but black on red is simply a classic. Check out the pictures and dare to disagree! Red highlights from the brake calipers join with the bright red hides everywhere in the interior for a contrast of color against the deep pearlescent finish. This car has some of Ferrari"s best options, from the Scuderia Ferrari shields, navigation, Daytona seats, dash mounted dedication plate, F1 transmission, the previously mentioned red calipers, red tachometer, to the car cover and CTEK battery tender in its original case. On top of that, this car sports the EXTREMELY rare titanium package: Titanium lug nuts, wheel center caps, oil fill cap and fuel cap make up a big dollar package that"s almost unseen on ANY 430! We have all of the tools, books and manuals, and we"ve got the VIP build book, too--everything is as right as it should be. As you"d expect, the car is very nearly perfect. The paint shows no marks, the top is like new as is the interior. Our car here looks as new as its 1200 original miles suggests. Here"s Car and Driver"s take on the F430: €œOne button pushed for 20 seconds drops the top of the new Ferrari F430 Spider into its lascivious splash of aluminum bodywork. Yes, just 20 seconds to a new and brighter you! Need more? Now try the button on the steering wheel, the one that says Start. Suddenly, you hear that sonorous purrrrrr, fast, fat, and deep, like a Bengal tiger getting its tummy scratched. That"s a 483-hp, 4.3-liter V-8 tugging on your leash, so you"d better want to run. First gear stretches out to 8500 rpm, howling to make your shanks shake. Second gear should get you 60 mph in about 3.6 seconds and a misdemeanor conviction in four flat. Keep the hammer down through third, fourth, and fifth, and sixth will burn your scalp clean off at 186 mph, or so Ferrari claims. Coupe and spider share all their tech goodies, including the E-Diff electronic differential and self-adjusting Skyhook suspension. The spider carries another 150 pounds, mostly in the roof mechanism and steel rollover hoops. Seven electrohydraulic motors fold up the canvas top and stack it flat in a tiny compartment hidden under the headrest fairings. Because Ferrari designed the F430"s cast- and extruded-aluminum skeleton for both tintop and topless duty, just 22 pounds go to frame reinforcement, all in the doors and rocker-panel boxes below the doors. Twisting and bending stiffness increases over that of the old 360 Spider. As the F430 thumps over rough pavement, the steering wheel and the floor are almost as jiggle-free as Francesco"s marble columns. Wide, squat, and busied up with air dams, exhaust tubes, and mesh screens, the spider resembles the Millennium Falcon from the back as it screams past morning commuters in their microcubes. As with the F430 coupe, Ferrari credits both Pininfarina and Mini Cooper chief designer Frank Stephenson with the spider"s look. (Stephenson has since moved on to more mundane work within Fiat.) Chopping the top reduced the F430"s aerodynamic downforce, so the spider"s tail spoiler rises to a higher peak to help make back the difference. At 124 mph, the spider is sucked to the road with 245 pounds of downforce and tracks with precision. Corners are quick work; a hand twitch cuts the apex, and the body stays flat. Life is surprisingly quiet at speed. A transparent polycarbonate wind blocker between the seats helps keep hats in place and the conversation two settings below shouting. Automatic exhaust-pipe valves turn up the wail under hard acceleration, but they open later in the spider--4000 rpm instead of 3000--if you set the manettino to low grip. The manettino is the rotary switch on the steering wheel that lets the driver fit the suspension, traction control, and stability settings to the mood. With the manettino, shift times also vary. In race, they bang home in as little as 0.15 second for that extra-quick lap time.€ At the Motor Car Group, we"re enthusiasts first.
