I love the new front end! It looks better than earlier sketches (or the photoshpooed yellow car in this thread) and the 360. The front was never my favourite piece of the 360. The sharknose on the 430 is fantastic IMO, just like it's headlight units.

Maybe it needs to grow on me, but the rear doesn't look as good as the front IMO. I liked that of the 360 much better. The small grille in the middle is too small and not aggressive enough.

So, my ideal Modena would be one with the 430 front and the 360 rear... Damn...

I admit the back does look like the Enzo, but this is what they told us they would be giving is as far back as a year ago. Luca de Montezemelo said it would be a mini Enzo.

It's gorgeous! The car definitely lneeded an update, pictores of the 360 next to the enzo made it look entirely too conseravtive and soft. I LOVE the new rear end.

Now that we know its shape for sure I have to say it is damn gorgeous already to my eyes! not as cool as a 355 but already in front of a 360 in my book!

hmmm i dunno, they're similar cars but the 360 was soft flowing curves all around. This is flowing curves a a hard edgeyness. I think they're both stunning in their own right.

Can't wait for the media pics too

I really don´t know, but I´m still not convinced about the sharknose...maybe if the nose was a bit more pointed....mmmm....i think it doesn´t looks good....but I´ll wait and see...

I still can´t believe Ferrari was so irresponsable to just drive a tottally non camo car in Mexico...very sloppy IMO...

Well, they almost got away with it, while in Italy after 2 meters the net would have been crowded with 200'000 pics

front looks great except the front bumper is yet to grow on me but it looks way better than it did in the 'spy pic'. the rear look pretty good, is that an air-brake i see? definately better than the 360 tho!

wow, i can't believe i've seen actual pics of the new ferrari 430!!!!!

pretty cool! 8)

That front grille looks a lot like that of a porsche with the two large openings on the sides. I really don't like the look of it.
