Ferrari 430 | Car Review | Top Gear - Part 1

[@breakingcycles741]

This car is almost 20 years old and looks just as good now as it did then. What a beautiful, timeless design.

[@nath-wp7xp]

Thanks for making me feel old today

[@Fordy117]

Planning on buying one soon, I truly think it’s one of the best cars ever made

[@BugattiONE666]

I think it looks better now than it ever did back in the day

[@Steve1766]

it debuted in 2003

[@BLKBRDD]

You know the design is good when it was good then and still gives the same feeling now.

[@silveradopunked8329]

This all changed when James May bought one.

[@jonnnyren6245]

Yep true that. 🤣🤣

[@dkmorris713]

it changed even more when Jeremy ate a chocolate bar in it😂

[@thabangmatlakala6657]

Even when James bought a 458😭

[@sheitejsharma681]

🤣🤣🤣

[@dazzaMusic]

This the car that made James love Ferrari’s

[@Butterbean32]

Years later, this and the 458 reviews are still some of the best piece of reviewing from Clarkson and Top Gear. The filming, soundtrack and pacing all come together perfectly, and the way Clarkson talks about these cars, mixed with how they sound, makes them seem like what Ferraris are to people: perfect cars

[@PuffinDragun69]

A manual F430 will demand a much higher price these days

[@harryburroughs]

PuffinDragun69 my dad has a manual f430 spider 100 k

[@daneg007]

these days it's about $100,000 for one in very good condition. hasn't increased in value, but has held it's value pretty well. the 430 scuderia, on the other hand, has increased in value quite a bit, at $250,000 and up for one in very good condition.

[@yellowmalice3036]

PuffinDragun69 Assuming one actually had the dough for a manual 430, I could only imagine how unbelievably hard it would be to find one.

[@TheDatpussy]

Yellow Malice its not harder to find that any other ferrari there usually one if you look around its just not the color you want haha.

[@mcmh9523]

McMuffinFluffin You're absolutely right. The red/beige ones only show up once in a blue moon, and they ARE very expensive.

[@user-lb7pt6jb3o]

There's some things about this car I like even more than the 458 and 599

[@princesuites7259]

OF COURSE IT IS. ITS BETTER FROM THE FRONT MORE BEAUTIFUL

[@cristtclaros]

the last of the "analogue" ferraris... without dual clutch and hundreds of electronics... makes you feel the car even more!

[@the80386]

Let me tell you what that is - it has 2 Pair of lights on the back. All proper ferraris have 4 tail lights.

[@user-lb7pt6jb3o]

zeebazu same thing corvette purists say "the z06 sucks just because it doesnt have round tail lights"

[@yrasphong]

the owner of my company owns one...its the sexiest exhaust sound...like a perfectly tuned race car

Get Amazon Prime, and watch The Grand Tour, it's basically what Top Gear used to be, but better.

[@philipcollier263]

Ben Pritchard second season was better. The first season was a bit disappointing to be honest. It just seemed like nobody was there to tell them to stop dicking about. Hopefully season3 will be better still.

[@danialkashif8467]

Philip Collier third season was absolutely brilliant

[@rextuner03]

I got to drive one of these yesterday around a short race circuit and wow.... Jeremy is spot on with saying it is perfect. Before I could never understand why you would spend that kind of money on a car. After driving it I can totally understand. It was a slice of heaven with wheels.

[@kurtisbrabeck5270]

Got to drive this car for 20 minutes yesterday! One of the best expierences in my life! :D

[@bluecar786]

+DutchBudokaiFan Biggest pieces of shit.... My buddy leased the car and it had issues and rattled worse than a pinto! Only plus is the WOW effect when you drive in one....

[@dishwashingdishes]

The way Jeremy explain things is amazing, the passion

[@PositiveLastAction]

The F430 still looks gorgeous! Still an amazing car in every way...and now it's priced to sell!

[@ExoticCarList]

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

[@delbroox]

Just drove one today in Silverstone, and it was my first Ferrari ever. Amazing experience!

[@dankmemer2774]

[@lamiar3688]

Is it still your favorite now ?

[@tdashkevich]

@@lamiar3688 yes

[@Vaiscrew]

458 best v8 but I love the 599 or enzo

[@mpa1931]

I feel like this cars exterior can be sold today, still looks great!

[@ArmenMotors]

I still think the F430 is the best looking mid-engine Ferrari ever made. And with a 6-speed manual gearbox, this car is simply mind-blowing.

[@gheorghefiliuta1532]

Ferrari makes a good mid-engine car every 4 years ,the f355 was good ,the 360 was a bit crap this is a legend and the 458 is again trash

[@Virtuoso23]

It was, until 488 Pista has been built. That car is nothing less than sexually exciting.

[@ernodios]

@@Virtuoso23 the Ferrari brand goes on a rollercoaster of design beauty, they reached a peak with the 355, then went down to the f360, reached the top with the f430, hit the bottom with the 458 and now they're up again with the 488. Shame it's not naturally aspirated anymore but when it comes to design alone, the 488 is the worthy heir of the F430

[@raedsakly2463]

@@gheorghefiliuta1532 the 458 is trash? What are you talking about? And FYI the 488 in terms of design is nothing more than a facelifted 458

[@il2xbox]

He's so right about the F430 out-handling everything. I drove a 911, and then an F430 and the Porsche suddenly felt like.. well, a canal boat.

[@Jeff9691]

Then you watch the 458 review and he says this is the wrong car to buy lol.. Shits all over May for buying one of these...

[@sanath8521]

Jeffrey Rose James May owns a 458 Speciale now 😃

[@evns7142]

Because the technology got better?? How can you even compare the two videos lol at the time the 430 was the best...

[@mperformance3502]

Better transmission too. Although f430 F1 is a good single clutch, it’s slow and clunky compared to double clutch in 458.

[@scottwhitley3392]

He said that only because May owned one

[@rykehuss3435]

[@thmvankempen]

Really really awesome car. Just driven one. Really awesome. They said I was allowed to go 60km/h (I am 15:) ) but when I was at my second lap I went to 150 km/h. It accelerates like a beast.

[@DaylyDriverDayly]

I love this car, one of my favorite Ferrari's because they offer it in stick shift (the only way you should buy a supercar). Also, unlike other Ferrari's, this one doesn't require having the engine taken out in order to perform certain maintenance. Jeremy Clarkson makes this Ferrari review like no other, it's awesome!!

[@justinanderson8758]

Little did Clarkson know the 458 would release and he will shun the 430

[@iantownsend500]

I loved this car when it came out. When James drove it in Sliver as a Convertible I was in love

[@SachaKDrums]

"A Harrier jumpjet at the battle of Agincourt" - this is why Top Gear can't be replicated in Australia, the US, wherever; Jeremy and Co. bring so much cultural significance and knowledge into what they do on the show that it's too unique to be copied. I think that's why people really like Top Gear - they work REALLY hard to make their car reviews relevant to people. They review a car as a piece of machinery AND for what it means to humanity in the bigger picture.

[@144Jacob]

This guy does some real driving and real testing. Love it!!!

[@JonBrownbread]

Thing i love about Top gear is that the footage is 15 years old but looks like it was made yesterday.

[@samarislam371]

Good old days, golden days, the best of Top Gear, when Top Gear was bloody awesome. Which year is this episode from? I wish it was HD.

[@ernodios]

They keep releasing new models and still in 2018 none of them can compare with this magnificent work of art. This is Ferrari at the Ferrariest

[@Krelus]

I don't understand why Top Gear dislikes the look of this car. I agree when they say the 612 and 599 aren't that gorgeous, but I consider this to be one of the most gorgeous Ferraris in existence!

[@nickw7693]

Saw one the other day, still sounds and looks great imo.

[@MrSupercampeao]

I love my 430 Spider! I think the Enzo inspired back end looks awesome. Real shame that the 458 Spider also does not have the glass engine cover any more.

[@jokerific07]

"although since you won't be needing a clutch pedal, you could sell one of your legs" Jeremy Clakson's hosting is amazing

[@WasifKhan1]

[@pascalnemeth8183]

What a great car, it's going through the corners extremely fast and controlled!
