Default Ferrari 430 Finally Unveiled (not the 2 pics of the red one on the road)















And just for the hell of it, here are the pics that have been posted before





I'm still not sure what to think about this car... I'm sure it will be a monster in terms of performance, but the looks have yet to grow on me... The front looks pretty good, the big air-dams I'm still borderline about... The rear I'm not sure on. The enzo-*** looks pretty good, but pales in comparison to the previous generation Ferrari rears (360 Modena, F355 <--my favorite! , etc.)\

To all those that were hoping those earlier picture were a photoshop... looks like this is the real deal.

I like it. It's a good evolution from the other previous models. I'm not quite sure about the ladder structure around the engine glass though.

I like the current one better. Wish they could make the headlights a little larger. Don't like the tail end at all.

Mmm. I want to marry it, despite it having way too much junk in the trunk for my tastes, and believe me, I like to see junk in the trunk.

Those front air dams are huge man, lookin like 2 flared nostrils. The front end of the 360 looks a lot better than the new 430. It's a good thing that rear is lookin hella good with the enzo cues. Besides, you gotto love it when you can see that hot engine through the rear hatch, let alone hear it scream as u mash the gas pedal.

as i stated before, i like the current one more, but i can definitely live with the new one

and hey, once the new one is out, the current 360 will slide bad on prices. good time now!
