Official specs of the 430
 

Of course it was stolen from rennteam :D
This is guy that took the pictures of the 430 that i posted, they were the pics that were taken with his camera phone. credit goes to dhayek.

hey guys these are the details that they gave us during presentation,its no speculations ,i heard it from my own ears ,unless ferrari guys change there minds or the specs .if i remember more details i will add them.
like you read before , the car has 490 hp ,4 sec. 0 to 100 and a top speed
of 325kph. ,the car weights 1395 kg. the car has around 25% more
torque ,to reach 47.5 mkg. concerning the brakes , i dont know technical
details of the standard brakes ,but all cars there were fitted with the
optional new ceramique brakes. the engine is also new , they said it has
nothing to do with the maserati engine ,and the engine is very light weight
due to the use of special alloy material. . they also said that the gear
change has been modified to be 35% faster . the car is standard fitted with
19 inch wheels. engine displacement is 4300cc.
they say its an all new car and not an update to the 360.
the car is fully finished from the inside and running , the interior
is very nice ,the dials are completely new ,with a huge rpm in the middle
painted in the exterior color, a smaller tachometer is on the right
graduated to 360kph ,its has less gauges on it compared to 360. the carbon
center console has a very nice v-shape with f430 engraved on it on both side
,the whole interior is still very ferrari like. the exterior mirrors has
also f430 engraved on them. the new thing about it is the steering wheel
that has 5 buttons : one is to start engine ,another one is to lift the car
up and down(like the f50),another one is to change gearbox settings ,and
there is a button to change suspension (firmer ,softer) ,i cant remenber
what was the 5th button for .
the official name of the car is f430. there is no monza imola or modena
after it.

:shock: :o :D

...speechless... (for once, that's good right? :) )

Wow. 325 top speed. 0-100 in 4. 390BHP. Damn. The 360CS already beats the Galardo in every category this will be even faster :shock:

Wow, 490 bhp ... I'm also speechless ... what's the price tag on that thing going to be?

I am going to order mine tomorrow, that is going to be one amazing auto.

What really amazes me is that top speed for an entry level Ferrari. I can only imagine what the specs of their next GT will be.

wow sounds great but starter on the steering wheel? they arent gonna have a big red button on the center console anymore :(

the fifth button is probably the horn button atleast that's my guess.

Do I see some rivalry brewing between Ford and Ferrari again?
Think about it...

Sounds like Lambo has a little R&D to do :roll:

that is one fast car i cannot wait! i cant believe you get this infomation out so quick

Thank you very much for the pics and for these informations budag and dhayek :D Can't wait the release !!

one question can you get a standard stick shift? it would be terrible if you got rid of it totally

I'm pretty sure it will be.

Remember how the 575M was shown everywere with the paddles? Magazines, autoshows etc...? But in the end there was the H pattern option. I think they concentrate more on the F1 because it's one of the main selling points I guess. (for wankers with no cojones)

screw that I'm a huge fan of the Manual gearbox but I would pickt the F1 over the Manual since it is a very good system and I think they are fun same with BMW I would always opt for the SMG.

But your so out of control........I think if you drove it, you'd hate it. Man I cant even use the sequential in sims, forget about real cars.
