Wow. Great of you to make a statement @Ljimpc ! Thank you very much! Glad you’re here to see this through. Thank you for building such a beautiful specimen.
THE SCUDERIA.
The very namesake of the Shield proudly borne by every great Ferrari competition car that came before it & ever since.
The ultimate expression of Ferrari's naturally aspirated V8 lineage.
Unfiltered. Uncompromising. Unapologetic.
This is the car worthy of carrying the Scuderia name - just as the Enzo was worthy of bearing the name of its founder.
Some names are earned, not bestowed. The righteous bear them with honor.
Scuderia Ferrari
The difference is more significant than simply the horsepower figures suggest because the Ferrari F430 and the Ferrari 430 Scuderia differ in both power and weight. The Scud has a 10% better power to weight ratio - not to mention sharper throttle mapping, revised suspension, carbon-ceramic brakes, and Ferrari’s F1-Trac software all contribute to the sensation that it’s a far more focused machine. Absolutely Raw!
@Queuedcars - we don’t happen to have a receipt for the delete panel but they came in either black leather or black Alcantara. part number is 80403500 (Scuderia Radio Cover CPL Alcantara).
These below attached photos are from my inspection of the car prior to my clients acquisition. You can see the headlights were perfect at that time - as opposed to photos 36 & 37. Otherwise, other than mileage, this Scud remains exactly as it was upon acquisition.
@joesailor - I grew up with Dick Smiths 427 Cobra driving through town regularly and hitting every car show in the Central Valley. He’d leave the keys in the ignition in the parking lot of the airport for small private plates while he’d take his Cessna out for a lap. That was the cobra that hit 198 at Texas motor speedway. Fasted recorded Cobra.
Another gentleman from my hometown used to daily his F50 and Enzo. Still daily’s his 918. So some still use their toys. Thank God.
