Ferrari F430 manual review. Why I would choose this F430 over a Scuderia.

[@TheOmniscientAtheist]

Who ever spec'd this car did a great job. Blue paint with light cream interior looks really nice, no stupid carbon brakes, proper seats, proper gearbox.

[@cedb7115]

No shields

[@johnv4866]

Gorgeous car, though I would prefer darker interior. In South Florida, I would be afraid that color would be too hard to keep nice

[@rogerwennstrom6677]

I dunno, to me 430:s always looks like 360:s redesigned by Hyundai :) Also I hate those rear lights, looking like they're falling out of their sockets. Still, a manual 430 is probably one of the more sensible Ferrari cars out there.

[@adamandeve3592]

@@TheMentalblockrock Agreed, I'm no expert and I thought it was a modern Ferrari before watching the video. Some of the new Ferraris are horrid.

[@dreyn7780]

Yeah, they forgot to do any tuning to the driving performance of the car. The motor is still in the factory setting. Nobody has tuned down the power. It hasn’t been tuned to anything yet. How about you tune the motor Harry, so it takes corners at 40km’s per hour instead of 200km per hour.

[@Real_MisterSir]

Just enough tech to make it usable and easy to live with, but not too much so that it stays an analogue experience. This is, in my opinion, the golden age of modern petrol automotive work. The absolute sweet spot.

[@Speednote10]

Me too. That with the accompanied clicks of the gated shifter is pure car porn.

[@Kalimerakis]

the short "silence" between the madness, a moment to gasp a breath of air before it all starts over again. I love it and the manual organic blipping on the downshifts a shame ferarris are mostly used for posing nowadays, by people who think rev-matching is some sort of car-dating app.

[@ALMX5DP]

Absolutely. Something about it that just reminds me there is still a life in absolute control of the machine. The imperfect shift is what makes me feel more connected and that my inputs matter, taunting me to improve further still.

[@andrewallan5090]

Completely agree.. Porsche Carrera GT springs to mind with the same sound and motion

[@visionist7]

The pause between revs on a manual is like the car taking a breath. It feels human. Double clutches feel very cold and impersonal. I don't want to own any more automatic cars.

[@anthonygnapp7495]

Thank you so much for this video Harry. I've owned my F430 for 6 years now, and although it is an F1 version I absolutely agree with all you say about it. Especially your comment about it feeling analogue. While these cars are packed with electronic systems, Ferrari did a magic job of making the F430 feel like it is analogue, and dare I say a little bit raw, which is no bad thing, and how a proper Ferrari should be. Your road trip videos inspired me to do just that, and I have now done two fantastic trips to Italy and back in mine. It was nothing less than a faithful companion being completely reliable, comfortable, and utterly mesmerising on those mountain passes (Susten, Great St Bernard and Futa). In fact by some stroke of luck I did the Futa from one end to the other without being stuck behind another vehicle of any sort. Had the road seemingly all to myself, which was just shear joy and kept me smiling for days. Again, thank you for your wonderful videos, keep them coming, and I think you should give an F430 a home in your Barn :)

[@DoWorkExotics]

Agreed! I love my F1 F430

[@harrysgarage]

Nothing wrong with it being an F1 equipped F430, the point of this video was to highlight the F430 generally and to point out the manual version is one of the most exciting manual cars there is, while the F1 version is one of the best bang for buck modern V8 Ferrari. I wouldn't have a 328 or 355 but I'd love a 430 and maybe a 458 speciale or F8 Tributo. It's right up there so enjoy!

Following this review a couple of months ago I managed to secure a silver manual with black leather carbon sports seats with just 1400 miles from a dealer out of a collection. I had it all checked out and ostensibly it’s a new car and drives like one as it’s been properly looked after. I’ve had a number of wonderful cars in my life but this is simply outstanding; manual, naturally aspirated, designed for the road, perfect bhp/power/size for uk roads and the sound is like driving around with Pavarotti singing in the back. I can’t thank you enough Harry for making me aware. It’s an absolute keeper ❤️ and as you say “it’s a total gem, off the scale”. Thank you Harry!

[@neilgaydon5430]

@@dylanwakley2553 2 years on and I love it more now than in the honeymoon. Yes, low miles can be a curse. This one had been properly stored during its life and Italia Autosport helped bring it out of dormancy. I’ve put on another 4,000 miles which would have been more but last summer was a wash out. So far only regular annual servicing, and the odd cosmetic touch up to keep on top of it ie the black grill at the rear was showing wear on the top which they resprayed in correct era paint total bill was £2k incl VAT which seems to be similar every year but then again Italia Autosport are fanatically meticulous. One minor issue was an exhaust bracket cracked which they welded (a known issue) at 3k miles and cost £250. The key is not skimping on preventative maintenance. Italia Autosport are rare because they literally go over every nut and bolt ensuring they oiled and protected trying to keep ahead of any potential issues. Touch wood this continues but am in no doubt a large bill will come along as it’s the nature of specialist cars.

I’ve been fortunate enough to drive quite a few Ferrari’s and hand on heart I can say that a manual F430 has to be one of the best experiences I’ve had driving a super car..and that “clunk-click you get when you change gears in that h gate gear box.. can’t beat it 👍

[@MrGaryGG48]

I have to agree with you Mark, but just a few years earlier. I worked in a Ferrari shop for a couple of years and while there were several other makes on the floor, for some reason I ended up in the Ferrari more often than most. ;^) Another post commented on the different experience with an open car. It doesn't matter which model you're driving, an open top Ferrari (with a manual box) gives you the opportunity to play an amazing symphony whether it's a V8 pipe organ or a V12 pipe organ; they're both just spectacular!! That pedal on the right plays the most beautiful arias!!

In my humble opinion, the 575 suffered in terms of looks compared to 550 similar to 512TR and 512M. In both the cases, the pre-facelift cars (512TR and 550) were the better cars to look at (and drive). They just made the front end ugly and added an F1 shitbox to ruin the driving experience.

After owning a couple earlier Ferrari’s with manual shift, I’d thought I’d try an F1 shift and bought an 08 Rosso Corsa F430 spider. Honestly, I was worried that I’d not enjoy or get used to the F1 long term. Well, after a couple years now I absolutely love it! It shifts smooth and the downshifting is awesome. I would not change back to a manual. ( although the manual is more likely to continue to climb in value). I’d been doing that for 20 years and I’m over it. It’s a fantastic car.

[@dreyn7780]

No he wasn’t. He would have taken it off Harry for not tuning the motor for the road, and dropping the revs to super low levels and risking everything by wild driving. Realise fellas, that YOU PAID FOR extra explosions to do a job better. What is that job? Why do you want it to do more at that point in time? Ferrari has OVER ENGINEERED the car. You got more than you could ever possibly use. Your first job as owner is to turn down the power by 50% -70%. Harry is extremely wild in his operation of the engine revolution range. He’s dangerous on gear changes too.

[@dreyn7780]

Remember, it’s NOT the race car version of this model. There’s no need to race it anywhere. You just operate the machine and tune it and then you fine tune it. There’s NOTHING where it says you jam the gears at rapid speed and THRASH the motor. You CONSERVATIVELY drive the car at around 70% revs with a detuned motor at around 67% of its maximum setting. If THATS TOO MUCH, you keep turning down the power until the car STOPS WHEEL SPINNING when you exit corners. You DONT turn down the power with the throttle lever/pedal. Do you understand it’s a lever! It’s called a pedal but ITS NOT the engine power adjustment setting.

First Ferrrari I ever drove was a Ferrari F430 manual and it blew my mind - totally lived up to all the Ferrari hype I had grown up hearing about. Absolutely love and this car. Have driven a 360 on the road too and agree with your comment - I never quite trusted it and didn't have the same connection to it when driving... Only just discovered your channel but really enjoying the videos. 👍
