So a few weeks ago I went to a Ferrari/Maserati dealership. But I didn't posted the pics yet, cause they weren't fully edited and I was still planning to go to another Ferrari/Maserati dealership, which I did today. Imo the problem with both dealerships is they have too much cars inside the showrooms, so it's a bit crammed inside and hard to take good pics. Certainly the showroom I visited today was small. It really is a bit of a shame, since that showroom used to be in another building, and was really huge. But due to the reorganisation of de European Ferrari dealer network, the Belgium Ferrari importer had to shut down business and with him this impressive showroom died.

So the showrooms may be a little bit crammed with cars, but the cars are still there :D As always the light wasn’t not on my side. In both visits there was too much light outside and too less inside. Also I think these pics aren't the best ones I made recently.

Enough whining, I'll start with the dealership I visited today and kick off with the new kid in town, the F430:

And the second dealership, a bit bigger, but also more cars ;) I wasn't allowed to take pics of the cars with license plates on them. So some nice cars (for example a 360 CS) aren't on the pics. I also missed a titanium grey F430. When I was taking pics of another car a mechanic drove away with it. Maybe I've now pics, but I've heard the beast :D Imo it sounds better at low revs than a 360. I can't say anything about the high revving scream, cause the engine was still could so the mechanic didn't revved it high.

Marvellous pics again, especially since you doesn't seem to use a tripod! Well done!

The black Daytona!!!!!!!! :love: :love: :love:

As for the crammed dealership problem, it's already pretty good actually!

This is a crammed one:

Nice pics.. it was worth the time spent editing them 8)

BTW - why the wierd size... not a problem, just wondering?? :)

also.... does anybody know when the 430 is coming to the UK dealers? Thx

YES! Those are some crazy nice pics!

What do you think of the 430 as viewed in reality?

And, BTW, now that the Ferrari/Maserati relationship is over, whats gonna happen with all these dealers? As far as I know, Ferrari is gonna be completely independent, while Maserati will be with Alfa Romeo....

I still don't have tripod for my new camera :oops: I have a little one, but it's not robust enough for my new camera. Any suggestions on buying a good tripod?


Maybe I've to reconsider my defenition of 'crammed' after your crammed dealership pic :lol:

BTW - why the wierd size... not a problem, just wondering?? :)

My camera just gives them in 3008x2000 and I just resize so hey are about 4 times smaller. Ok, maybe 1504x1000 would be a bit more logical, but I like the fact the first number is a rounded one :D



What do you think of the 430 as viewed in reality?
I think it looks better than the 360. But I'd pick a f355 over it any day. The F430 is good looking, but just can't match the superbness of the f355.



well your dealership tour continues, and some more great pics
My mission is to visit every exotic dealership in West Europe this year ... j/k :D Neverthelees, yesterday I also went to the Maybach/SLR/expensive Mercs/Designo dealership. But the doors were closed for me. They were preparing something inside. Maybe a big customer was there or was expected the pay them a visit. I'll have to go back another time ;)
