Ten years ago nobody imagined that sports cars would shift gears as fast as they do nowadays. One of the last cars from the generation with a robotized and loud gearbox is the 430 Scuderia. This is true beauty from Maranello. In England, spotter TFJJ spotted a beautiful copy.
When you place the 430 Scuderia next to the new 458 Special, the 'old' car can't keep up with the Speciale but still the 430 Scuderia is way more sensational than the 458 Speciale. The Scuderia's predecessor, the Challenge Stradale, is maybe even more extreme. Back in these times the supercars were really hardcore but that changed with the modern cars. Everything needs to be more environmentally friendly, economic and less extreme. But still the performance of the newest models keeps increasing. Those who're still looking for a 430 Scuderia have to be fast because the Ferrari's value is increasing due to the limited production. It looks like Ferrari built between 1.500 and 2.500 copies of the 430 Scuderia.
The Scuderia is the racing version of the F430. The weight is reduced with 100 kilograms and the power is boosted with 30 hp. The 430 Scuderia has a total power of 510 hp and the c ar is much better than the F430. The car shifts gears faster, has a better handling and looks more aggressive. The front bumper looks more sharp, the spoiler on the back is bigger and this car has two enormous exhausts instead of four. These exhausts produce one of the best sounds a Ferrari ever produced.
