Ferrari 430 FI

The F430 hails the arrival of a whole new generation of Ferrari V8-engined berlinettas. Every inch of the car was inspired by the engineering research carried out at Ferrasi's Gestione Sportiva F1 racing division. The result is a highly innovative design characterised by cutting-edge technologies perfected for use on a road-going car.

Needless to say, performance is outstanding: acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in 4 seconds fiat and a maximum speed in excess of 315 km/h.

For instance, owners can order a braking system using carbon-ceramic discs which superior stopping power and give the driver the satisfying feeling of being in complete control of the vehicle even in the most demanding situations.
