Vehicle Summary: 2008 Ferrari F430 Coupe
The Ferrari F430 Coupe is the latest in a long line of two-seat, race-car-derived coupes from the exotic Italian automaker. Riding on an updated chassis derived from its predecessor, the F430 Coupe comes powered by a 4.3-liter V8 that can take the car to 60 mph in just under four seconds. A six-speed manual transmission is standard. As is the automaker's tradition, the Ferrari F430 Coupe comes wrapped in stunning aerodynamic styling and can hug the curves like few other cars on the road. High-tech features include an electronically controlled limited-slip differential and a steering wheel-mounted "commutator" control (manettino in Italian), which the driver can use to tailor the Ferrari F430 Coupe's various integrated systems, such as the suspension settings and stability and traction control.
