Equipment
4,308/483hp, 6-speed, satin finish Challenge alloy wheels, Michelin tires, red calipers, carbon discs, SF shields, carbon rear grille, manual, car cover.
Condition
Lightly nose chipped, otherwise like new. Finished in Nero Daytona, a rich black with gold metalflake. Represented as less than 7,500 miles and hardly used.
Market commentary
Many Ferraris are touted as having the "all-important 6-speed" but in this case that representation is appropriate as only some 10% of F430s were so-equipped. The Gooding & Company bidders got the message and chased this F430 into the value stratosphere. Now, will the new owner be able to drive it?
