F430 [2005-2009] All new Ferrari F430 Spy Photos

[PanterroR]

Ferrari has started the development of the all important mid-engined F430 model successor. First test mules are based on the, yet to be released, F430 Challenge Stradale and have now started to rack up test kilometres on the Fiorano test track as well as the winding mountain roads around the Maranello headquarters.

yep i read that..but i still dont buy it..the F430 isnt old yet..adn there hasent even been a cs yet..

It says right on the front of the black car "F131 Evo". What is the internal designation of the F430? Evo implies to me that it is a CS type of car, ie. an evolution of the standard F430. Plus look at the exhaust outlets- FXX style. I think that is further evidence that this is a CS type of car in the same vein as the FXX vs. the Enzo.

BTW agreed- GT3!!!

If these spy shots show anything it's that the F430 is shaping up and losing some of that dopey looks that it has now. Okay, maybe I'm a little too harsh - not dopey, but just 'soft'. I'm looking forward to every bit of this successor (or CS) - the F430 is a great piece of machinery, it's F1 built for the road.

Ferrari is surely taking its time to develope the F430 CS, i wonder why though, isn't it just the road version of the race car? I am not sure if this is the real deal F430 CS, it is probably a race car without the paint scheme.

Couldn't this just be a F430 facelift, the F430M (Modificata)?

I don't think so. The F430 is already a heavily facelift version of the F360. I think it is time for the CS version or possibly a replacement version.

 

[Merc1]

So wait a mintue we're counting the change from 360 to 430 as a facelift and not a new model?

Must be the CS,the F430 is not that old yet to be replaced and oh yeah this Ferrari over the GT3 or Gallardo SL anyday

The F430 is not a facelifted F360. It's a completely new model. The car in the spy shots is most likely the stradale or another version.
