Some Interesting Ferrari F430 Facts
- Successor to the Ferrari 360 Modena
The Ferrari F430, launched in 2004, was the direct successor to the 360, retaining its basic shape but receiving major upgrades in performance, aerodynamics, and electronics. - New 4.3L V8 Engine (hence the name)
The “430” in the name refers to its 4.3-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine, producing 490 horsepower — a big leap over the 360’s 3.6L V8. - F1-Inspired E-Diff and Manettino Dial
The F430 was the first Ferrari road car to feature an electronic differential (E-Diff) and the manettino switch on the steering wheel, letting the driver adjust driving modes — both derived from Formula 1 technology. - 0–100 km/h in 3.9 Seconds
With its new V8 and improved traction systems, the F430 could go from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in just 3.9 seconds, with a top speed over 315 km/h (196 mph). - Available with Manual or F1 Transmission
While most were sold with Ferrari’s F1-style automated manual gearbox, the F430 was also available with a 6-speed gated manual, making those versions highly collectible today. - Designed by Pininfarina and Frank Stephenson
The F430’s aggressive yet elegant design was a collaboration between Pininfarina and Frank Stephenson, incorporating styling cues from the Enzo and Ferrari's F1 cars. - Carbon-Ceramic Brakes as an Option
Ferrari offered carbon-ceramic brakes for the first time on the F430, improving braking performance and fade resistance — a technology that later became standard across the lineup. - Spider and Scuderia Variants
The F430 lineup included the F430 Spider (convertible) and the F430 Scuderia — a lightweight, track-focused version with 510 hp, faster shifts, and less weight. - Revolutionary Sound from the V8
The F430’s engine note is often praised as one of the best-sounding naturally aspirated V8s ever, with a high-pitched wail that’s unmistakably Ferrari. - Helped Transition Ferrari into the Modern Era
The F430 introduced modern driving aids, improved build quality, and advanced electronics, making it a key turning point between analog Ferraris and today’s tech-laden supercars.
