Ferrari F430, launched for the first time in public at the Salon de l'Automobile in Paris in 2004, welcomed the arrival of a new generation of Ferrari 8-cylinder Berlinetta and taking the technology of the aluminum used for the first Ferrari 360 Modena to a new level. It also offers a series of spectacular innovations directly derived from the Ferrari Formula 1 car. Two of these innovations are world firsts for production cars: the electronic differential (E-Diff) initially developed by Ferrari F1 single-seaters and designed to maximize engine torque for optimal traction and steering wheel collector was placed ready mounted switch (better known to drivers Scuderia as "manettino") that directly controls the integrated systems governing vehicle dynamics.
Another key feature of the Ferrari F430 lightweight, compact 4300 cc 90 ° V8 engine, which punches to 490 hp to achieve a specific power of 114 hp / liter, with a Ferrari F430 with power-weight ratio 2.8 kg / hp (dry weight), braking system with carbon-ceramic discs for optimal efficiency in the use of extreme (optional) formula, which comes from the box that cuts gear shifting times to 150 milliseconds allowing the driver to make the most of this car are very high performance really - Acceleration 0-100 km / h (0-62 mph) in 4 seconds, top speed 315 km / h (196 mph) - and aerodynamic design that embodies the latest technological competition, especially the flat underbody and large rear diffuser to increase support.
The second new Ferrari F430 is Ferrari was launched in 2004, after the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, a huge success all-aluminum cylinder 2 to 12 February.
