Product Overview

Ferrari F430 (Type F131) is a mid-size sports car in production from 2004 to 2010. It was available with a several tunes of Ferrari's F136 naturally-aspirated V8 engine that displaced 4.3 liters.
Like the 360 that preceded it, the F430 was available with either 6-speed manual or "F1" automated manual. Unfortunately, many buyers opted for the F1 transmission, which is glitchy and has fallen out of favor. The gated manual is what collectors want today.
Styling-wise, the F430 is an evolution of the 360. It is certainly less soft in its lines, though it is equally elegant. Many prefer this design over the newer 458.
