F430,F360 magazine photoshoot!!!!!!

[komotar]

HERE IT IS BITCHES!!!!!!!

Something for FERRARI fans!!!!!


Most of you know the story. The ones who haven't got any idea, what's going on, here's the short version.

Got a job at a auto-mag called AVTO+SPORT. (part time, I get one or maybe two cars in a month for 4-6 days, drive them alot and write a review)

The owner of the mag also owned the f430 you see in the pics.
He sold it allready. I hear he's getting the SLR next. Before the f430, he had the Carrera GT, GT2, 550 Maranello, 500SL, Diablo......

And the man said, the f430 is by far the most fun he had in ANY car.

He also drove the Lemans in 94 and 95.

Anyway, I was invited to participate in the photoshoot.
I enjoyed a good hour in the company of these two amazing machines.

Probably one of the best hours in my life.

Got to ride in the Modena. Got to sit in the F430.Got to hear both cars screaming. It was UNREAL. I still get goose bumps when I think of it.

Tons of stuff hapened, but I'm to tired right now to describe everything.

So just ask, if you want to know anything else.

Oh, this is also kinda fun for me, because I wrote three articles for this issue -Mitsubishi Colt review
-New Mercedes A
-Winter time in the F1
In the Colt review, my photos were used, wich is also cool.

So I kindove stepped into motoring journalism with one foot. Yaaay!!

Anyway, enough about me

The photoshoot hapened about a month ago, but I had to wait for the mag to come out, before I could post these.


Here are the pics.

[artypossum]

The owner of the Magazine bought and sold an F430 in such a short time?????? What the hell is the point of that???

[saadie]

He also had the Carrera GT for about 3 months.

that's a first one :? 8)

[dons5]

1st congrats on the job.

2nd thanx so much that post was insane.

3rd I know it looks meaner then the 360, but does it still look like a true Ferrari in the flesh and does it look super exotic in the flesh like a 360.

4th tell us more about the sound, doesnt sound too much like a Ferrari in most vids, but I have faith that in real life it does, so tell us please!!!

[komotar]

It sure looks like a true Ferrari. All those sexy, aggressive lines.

I also wasn't quite convinced about the sound until I got to hear it roar past me a number of times. Let me tell you, the sound of the f430 is unique in the Ferrari world. Alone the start of the engine sent chills down my spine. Just a turn of the key and the beast awakens. Just the start itself is very loud, then the rumble quiets down a bit. But when the car starts moving.......well, I was asking myself half of the time, if that is even legal.......

The f430's rumble is much deeper than the 360's. But in a good way. Very good way. It sounds violent, like it's ready to eat your favourite pet for breakfast.

The thunder begins at low revs and it escalates all the way to insanity. You can hear the car a mile away.

To sum up: the car looks and sounds like a true ferrari. Even more so than the 360. It defenetly has the carisma and the flair to be one of the all time greats.

The owner of the modena said (after he drove the car): "Now, this is something compleetley different" The car is better planted on the road. Words like body roll shouldn't even be used in the same sentence with the f430........


So, don't worry, the sound WILL NOT dissapoint you.
It goes all the way to the bone and it stays with you. For life.

Hope this helped.....

[dons5]

Thanx so much komotar, oh man from what you told me now im soooo relieved, I thought maybe Ferrari was changing for the worse first with the 612 and then with this but Im defenetely wrong. Actually i never thought that, someone hit me please for me even saying somethin so stupid like that lol.

[bmwmpower]

THX, you are very lucky boy, congratulation for job, nice pics also,
you work in mag like photograph or like redactor?

:D

[komotar]

Well, you could say I'm a test driver. But that sounds a bit cocky :oops:

The chief editor asked if I can take pics. I said yes. He was very pleased with
the pics and they ended up in the magazine.

I hope this will also be the case in the future.

[bmwmpower]

that job gave you that man few moths ago with Merc ? you wrote somethink like that it was brabus or somethink tuned
BTW what digi cam you got? pics are very pretty

[komotar]

that job gave you that man few moths ago with Merc ? you wrote somethink like that it was brabus or somethink tuned

Nope, I got this job on my own.

I talked with the man who had the merc,
he wanted someone to do some
stuff regarding his nightclub, here in Slovenia, but he couldn't give me anything I cold hold on to, so I passed.

The digi cam is a small, cheap Minolta Dimaga E323.

It's not much, but I have learned how to work with it.
If you try just a bit, you can get some decent shots.....but I still have to buy something better....
at night , this baby doesn't want to play any more.... and it doesn't allow
me to take extreeme close ups, all the ics are blurry....

[saadie]

yer camers is pritty good ....
IMO if you want a cam thats good at night .. go for a nikon or olympus .... i've used olympus C-750 and C-770 .. they are not all that good .. but the night shots are awsome even in sport mode ...

[komotar]

thx for the advice saadie.

I'm planing to buy one before the summer starts...

[stmoritzer]

wow :shock: , spent almost 1hour looking at the pics :D and saved many of them
