The Ferrari 430 Scuderia. Michael Schumacher will officially unveil the car at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

The new Ferrari 430 Scuderia will join the road-going V8 line-up alongside the F430 coupé and the F430 Spider. The 430 Scuderia is a truly high-performance 2-seater berlinetta which demonstrates how Ferrari’s Formula 1 know-how is carried across to its production cars.

The new model is a special series based on the F430 and is aimed specifically at Ferrari’s most passionate and sports-driving oriented clients. Development focused on light weight, minimum trimmings and innovative technology. All this to exalt the car’s extremely high-performance and ability to thrill the driver.

The new car can count on an extremely low weight-to-power ratio of just 2.45 kg per hp thanks to a low dry weight of just 1250 kg - 100 kg less than the standard F430 – and to the naturally-aspirated 4308cc V8’s 510 hp at 8500 rpm.

Superb performance both on and off the track is assured by a series of cutting-edge solutions. There is the latest F1 software - Superfast – which reduces gearchange times to just 60 milliseconds, and new traction control which, for the first time, combines the E-Diff electronic differential and the F1-Trac traction and stability control in a single integrated system.

Vehicle dynamics, control and performance thus represent the zenith of Ferrari’s achievements in terms of developing road-certified sports cars.

The 430 Scuderia will be officially unveiled by Michael Schumacher on September 11 2007 at the IAA Motor Show in Frankfurt.

That interior looks crazy. And the moved exhaust pipes are... different, for a road car.

[Vette Boss]

What a car, it's just stunning to behold. It's hard to think of how they could improve the F430, but they have done it.

[fbc]

Damn, that's going to an absolute weapon - it's one of those cars that just looks devastatingly quick.

Also, those grilles should have always looked like that on the f430, they look so much better.

[UMass]

That is one beautiful car.

[essentialatom]

Racing stripes, eh? That's an extra 40bhp right there, just ask anyone who meets up outside Aldi at 11pm.

It looks focused but not good. Though the back could look better if the car was in a darker color.

[No Boss]

I'm not one to go on about hp/liter but damn that is rather impressive numbers Ferrari has yanked from the motor. I just wonder how much the engine actually weighs.

[Austere]

The speedo starts at 30!

Edit: Wait a minute - it's in kmph. That's actually not impressive...
Oh well, the car its self is still impressive overall.

[zenkidori]

[wooflepoof]
