The red one was placed perfectly I think :D and with nobody around, begging for pics! The yellow one, they were putting it inside, so I had the privilege to listen to it carefully and then take pics inside the showroom :D
Enjoy!!
My first 430 and it's two in a day :D

Damn, TT. You lucky guy, 2 F430's!!! First F430's spotted by a JW-member, I presume?
And how do they look IRL compared to the 360 and the f355?

Can't wait to see all the pics, really has won me over this car after the slight disappointment of the 360, it'll be lovely to see our JW reporters pics :D 8)

Well, as long as personal preferences go, for me the 355 is still definitely the best V8 Ferrari to date. Period, but the 430 jumps on the 360, eats it and split out in pieces! If you will put two side by side, I doubt you would give a second glance to the Modena.. maybe in some years things will change, but now the 430 is the big thing IMO!
Now, trying to be objective, it really is a great car, believe me. It sits there, growling and asking for your attention right away! You can't overlook it, maybe in darker colors or silver, but not in yellow or red! it calls you, it want to tease and charm you! Nice from every angle IMO, marvellous to be able to discover every curve on the red one with no fucking body around!
It's bloody nice and personally the wheels on the red one are better than the "old" CS look ones for it.
IMO if the 360 sold very well, the 430 should do even better. Now that we know with the looks goes the performance, I dont' really think there is any other car able to match the 430 as for sheer desirability! it is a hell of a car, I already feel the need to see another one!!
As you may understand I really like it, but should be the same for you all too :D you will see!
Damn TT if I ever find myself in your neck of the woods you got to show me around your car spotting places........ :D
you are either one lucky guy, or you attract exotics like a magnet.......
Well I try to push my luck ;) I live in a good area for this, but you also need to put some effort into it to find some rare pearls :D
For the red one it was totally unexpected.. I only wanted to see the SLR :D
For the 430, I noticed there was some supect movement in the morning, so I came back in the afternoon and I was right :D
The 430 is about to become the "Beetle" of Ferraris... ;) Every Tom, Dick & Harry with the spare change is gonna have one - making only about 18% of the 430 owners true enthusisats - and the rest Trust Account users... ;)

There is always a bad side I guess, but we can't pretend Ferrari to make money only selling ultra limited editions and if we want more F40, 50 or Enzo in the future, we have to accept big volume sellers :D and if they are as sexy as the F430, even better :D
Woah TT :shock:
Very lucky! Can just see the F40 in the background of the second pic :P
[EDIT - :oops: and the SLR is visible too]
BTW - when are the cars being sold to the public??? i'm sure i will make a trip to see one as soon as it lands 8)

Yep of course some SLR pics will follow. Luckily they closed the bonnet for me, but it was surrounded by useless ropes and basically impossible to take a good pic.. I hope at least a couple are postable :D

Since the first time I saw the F430 it became my favourite and I was sure it will be a huge success. Now all comments prove my point. :)

There are now two things i just can't wait to see.
1. TT's picture update
2. The F430 in real life!

What matters the most is that you have seen it for yourself :D Pictures can't really capture the thrill of seeing a car in the metal/carbon fibre... when i visit showrooms/dealers/motorshows, i take only a few pictures for myself to remember the trip by. The rest of the time is spen gawping at the details on the car... the angles you can't quite capture with a camera, the reflections on complex surfaces, the amount of legroom :lol:
Your pictures are a bonus... something you enjoy doing, and we enjoy seeing. So your "crap" pics of the SLR will still be appreciated 8)

LOL you are 100% right, I admit sometimes I do the opposite, I take pics in some sort of trance and then I notice details only when watching the pictures since I barely look at the car outside the small LCD screen! But I'd rather have some nice pics for you all than enjoying the car for hours and forgetting taking pics :D
^^^ lol... we're lucky to have such a dedicated JW scoop photographer :mrgreen:
What about this other rare beauty I got?
An F40... ok I saw another one in the other dealership, but this one was from Monaco :D

Beautiful shots TT, and excellent spotting. So now that you've seen it in person, how do you think it compares to the 360? I haven't had the chance to see it in the metal yet....however, for some basis of comparison, the Ford GT cleans up in the looks department to me compared to the 360. Not so sure about the 430 though...

Unbelievable....I wish I saw all these cars like you, why did I ever leave Switzerland???? :x
That Ferrari dealership is the place to be....I think I could spend all sitting there and waiting for the cars to come to me. :D
Great pics, thanks, can't wait for the rest. :wink:

I am afraid RC45 is right....this will become the new Ferrari Taxi for tools with too much money. But this is extrmley quick...so it might wipe out some of the retards....but then the poor car has to go as well...... :wink:

Brother now every1 knows that this car looks great.....but tell us how it sounds. Im sure you must have heard them fire it up there while backing up the Yellow 430.
Edit- BTW TT what camera do you use....produces good images i must say :wink:

TT, I think you will have to start a topic (and make it a sticky) about your camera....everyone seems to re ask the question in every thread. :P

WAUW, that SLR... :wink:
DAmn you are in heaven TT, I would go crazy if I lived there :mrgreen:
Nice striped F40 TT 8)
I don't know whether it looks better than plain, but the black F40 that you saw was pretty special 8)
Damn, you're lucky :) It's coming in the Netherlands at the end of december :D
WAUW, that SLR... :wink:
DAmn you are in heaven TT, I would go crazy if I lived there :mrgreen:
I would like to tell you I got terrific pics of it, but it's not the case.. only 3 or 4 and not that great.
I was waiting for this moment: "TT's first F430"... Thanks for the teaser... jeje, I want to see the complete report!
HEHE, I should post the first part this monday maybe :D

I answered this question in the previous page, but basically it simply rocks :D I only saw the GT at motorshows so far, so I can't really judge it in real life, but the 430 is way better than the 360 as for looks IMO :D

What do you mean dude?
G...but tell us how it sounds. Im sure you must have heard them fire it up there while backing up the Yellow 430.
Yep, of course I got to hear it pretty well, but just at idle or low revs. The sound you could hear in the motorvision or auto motor und sports tests, is very realistic. It is good at idle, what I would like to hear is the car beeing redlined from real, not on video... soon I hope :)

Thats the great thing about the Diablos, and old Lambos. If you couldnt handle the power you couldnt drive the car. So no Jack, Dick, or Paris for that matter could have one.
