Vehicle Description
Vehicle Overview
Having revealed the hardtop berlinetta F430 at the 2004 Paris Motor Show, Ferrari unveiled the open-top Spider version in March 2005 at the Geneva International Motor Show. Though it was similar in some respects to the previous 360 Modena, the 430 was the necessary successor as its mechanical improvements and updated design jumped into a new era of performance for Ferrari.
With its looks credited to Pininfarina, the model's stylish appearance took elements from the 1961 Ferrari 156 Grand Prix race car, with front intakes mimicking those of the iconic Formula One racer. Inspiration from the racetrack extended to the model's side air intakes, its rear diffuser, and taillights styled like those on the Ferrari Enzo, all of which enhanced the aggressive stance of the 430.
The design department was not the only thing to change over the 360 Modena. A brand-new 4.3-liter V-8 engine was fitted, producing 480 horsepower at 8,500 rpm and 343 pound-feet of torque at 5,250 rpm. The new powertrain and exceptional aerodynamics combined to take the 430 to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds and an incredible top speed of 190 mph. With five different driving modes, all accessible from the "manettino" driving switch on the steering wheel, the car was set up to handle various driving styles and environments.
The beauty about this example is the fact it is a FACTORY gated transmission which is extremely rare not only because of how many total were made, but how many were made for 2008's specifically, only about 50 cars imported to the US, ranging between both coupes and spiders!
This F430 Spider is finished in the iconic color combo of Rosso Corsa over a Beige leather interior. Equipped with the most notable 5-star wheels finished in Silver, Black Leather Rolls Bars, and on the 2008 models, Carbon Ceramic Brakes became mandatory on all 430's, in 2005-2007 it was almost $17k.
It was originally delivered to The Auto Gallery in Woodland Hills, California on May 19th, 2008 to the original owner. In July of 2014, it was acquired by a new owner in New York, who owned the car for a brief period of just over a year before being sent down to Texas for a total of 6 years and serviced annually at Ferrari of Houston. It finally made its descent down to South Florida in late 2021 where it now resides covering just over 6,640 miles. Over the past 16 years the car was serviced exceptionally with the most recent one being at Ferrari of Palm Beach on January 31st, 2024.
