As the title suggests after selling my Rosso 360 spider last year nothing else has put as bigger grin on my face since so want to get back into and F car!

After an F430 Coupe in Red with Crema interior and fancy trying the F1 box this time. (360 was gated manual) If anyones thinking of selling get in touch want one with Ferrari extended warranty really.

How much does the Power warranty cost? Say if I buy one privately without a warranty what would the process be? Similar to Porsche with an inspection etc?

Also what reg on did the F430 come with Ceramics as standard?

Looking forward to getting into one, was going to wait until November to pick up a winter bargain but the urge is too strong now to wait.

I know of someone who might be selling his - will direct him to this thread.

Ceramics didn't come into play until late 08 I believe but some earlier cars spec'd them.

Power Warranty is easy to add assuming it's inspected and serviced through Ferrari. Costs a few grand I believe.

And doubt you would pick up a winter bargain anyway. Find the thread on here about prices and you'll see they are steady, if not on the rise, and time of year doesn't affect re-sale.

I've got one, it's great, so much so, I didn't bother renewing the warranty, I'd rather spend the money on preventative maintainance.
I came across Stewart Roden in Edinburgh, he had a very successful GT race team called scuderia Eccose running f430s, I now use him for servicing, there's nothing he doesn't know about 430's, give him a ring, he'll know of some good ones.
I'd even sell you mine but the problem with that would be, I'd have to spend twice as much to buy something to better it.
