10 Reasons Why The Ferrari F430 Spider Is Still BRILLIANT!

[@johnforeman634]

I bought the same Ferrari about a year ago. An 08 spider in Rosso Corsa. If you don’t like attention, don’t buy this car! It’s constant and doesn’t stop till you shut the garage door behind you. I’m incredibly happy with this car. It only had ten thousand kilometres on it when I bought it and has run perfectly. Nothing has gone wrong with it. For all the incredible enjoyment I get from it, it’s the best money I’ve ever spent.

The F430 is still my favorite Ferrari of all time. It was my first dream car

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

Enzo is mine such a cool raw car. Shame a used Enzo sells for 5 million plus.

[@memphis6694]

It was def my first dream car, still love it but the 488 spider is now my #1. But the F430 is much more realistic of a purchase for me and it’s still beautiful.

[@dougs7009]

I love mine. It offers an occasion or an experience each time you take it out. Sharing this with friends has been great. Anyone looking, I have been very pleased. I have 3 porsches and looked at GT3 RS = also nice but u couldn’t really experience it unles at a track. The F430 = it has emotion at all speeds. Thanks for a nice and spot on video.

[@TheAutomobile]

Thanks so much for watching. It’s always great to hear from an owner. Really appreciate your comment. Stay tuned because I will be hopefully doing a Ferrari triple test of V8 models soon.

[@johnforeman634]

So true. I have the same Ferrari as well. Every time I take it out is such an event. The attention this car receives is unbelievable. You meet people constantly.

[@centuryfreud]

I'm considering one. Do you perform your own maintenance? How do you really know the mileage? I've heard many are falsified.

[@irdestroyer]

Have you had a chance to compare it to an LP 560? I am looking at a Ferrari/Lambo in the 150-200k'ish CAD price range and am stuck between both. Alternatively, don't buy either and wait/save for a 458 Spyder...

The Ferrari F430 is becoming desirable among collectors. Clean, low mileage examples are starting to bring in big money.

[@MrFeckham]

This has always been my teenage dream car coupe or spider. I'd take any.

[@randymccoy5703]

Great video!!! There is a completely different experience in Race mode shifting at redline however. The driver in this video has another 3000 rpm of beans to give from where the car was being shifted. The F430 is a terrific Ferarri. Wonderful cars, drive them and enjoy them!

[@jeremiahthompson5958]

It's even better if you can get one with a manual trans. Hard to find at decent price. I had my F430 converted by the guys at EAG and I LOVE IT! It woke up the car and gave me the control back instead of crap F1 system.

[@TheAutomobile]

Yes, I think that’s right although the F1 didn’t completely offend me. Much better if you lift off the throttle when changing.

[@jeremiahthompson5958]

@@TheAutomobile when they work, they aren't bad. But it's known to be unreliable. Why spend 20K at Ferrari to repair F1 when you can pay 30k for true manual. Let's not forget the large bump in resale value. 😉

[@f430ferrari5]

@@jeremiahthompson5958 sorry but the gated 6 speed sucks. You can’t even shift fast in it. Trouble going into gear and hard to shift from first to second. The F1 shifts faster...especially in Race Mode and with the CST off. You would never be able to keep up in either straight line acceleration or the track. The F430 was designed with the state of the art F1 system and E-Gear diff at that time. The 3 pedal was a total after thought and things don’t even line up properly in the stock shifter. The 360 3 pedal is actually better because it was designed that way for its era. I’ve had my F1 F430 since 2007. Love it. I also have a 3 pedal BMW E46 M3. This shifter is good and I can easily keep up or even beat SMG M3’s. The car was engineered for both and only came out with 3 pedal originally.

[@jeremiahthompson5958]

@@f430ferrari5 obviously you have never driven an EAG car. They have refined the clunky feel of OE.

[@godwinojelabi5921]

Dream car

[@TheAutomobile]

I was VERY lucky to be able to spend time with it. I got about three hours of driving in it and loved every second. Not to mention the number of people who looked at me in it (they were looking at the car, I know!) and even people asking me if I would rev it for them! More Ferraris coming in the near future. Got a video planned. Stay tuned!

[@pipolebnene]

I would get one but the running costs are too high and its old so you never know what will break. Plus you have to treat all the sticky buttons which is alone a 4k job

[@ngmui430]

tune up for this model can be up to 7000$US. you might be able to afford it

[@alleo5774]

As the rpm hover between 3-4000 all the 8 cylinder valves will be opened and closed; you can hear the mechanical clicking of the valves, despite the other loud engine and exhaust sound. This is audible only on a spyder with the roof down. In safe roads, an rpm of 6000+ will give you sound and acceleration that puts a permanent grin on your face for the whole day. I am still trying to convince myself to venture into other cars like porsche or astin M, or Lamb. No. not convinced there will be any enhancement in driving pleasure.

[@TheAutomobile]

Yes! This is a quite brilliant car!

[@yawnyle]

Cars definitely had GPS in 2004...

[@georgekumpis250]

Haha! "No such thing as GPS when this was designed"..... My 2003 e46 M3 had GPS.

[@fotofan9795]

It sounds like 4 cylinders

[@TheAutomobile]

It doesn’t! Flat plane crank though so it’s never going to be like an American V8.

You gave it the "beans" all the way to 4k rpm and shifted.......sigh

Well, I didn’t want to upset the owner TOO much!

[@yuidfbse]

Dude what world do you live in??? When this car was made THERE HAD BEEN GPSs AVAILABLE FOR YEEEEEEARS ALREADY and there was even available as stock via a factory installed upgraded Becker unit from day one. Do your research better next time.

Please. Not to the standard of modern GPS. That was my point. Try to interpret better next time.
