Description
The 2008 Ferrari F430 Scuderia is a focused, race inspired expression of Maranello’s mid engined V8 formula, designed by Frank Stephenson in collaboration with Pininfarina and built for drivers who want the sharper, lighter edge of Ferrari’s road car heritage. Powered by a 4.3 liter V8 and paired with Ferrari’s single clutch F1 style automated manual transmission, it sends power to the rear wheels with the kind of immediacy that made the Scuderia a standout when new. Output is rated at 503 horsepower at 8,500 rpm and 347 lb ft of torque at 5,250 rpm, with a curb weight of about 2,975 pounds, giving it the lithe, urgent character enthusiasts expect from the name.
Built in limited numbers, the 430 Scuderia is widely regarded as one of the more exclusive modern Ferraris, with estimates generally placing total production at roughly 1,750 to 2,000 cars worldwide. That rarity adds to its appeal, especially in a specification like this Bianco Avus example with Nero interior and Bianco stitching, finished with Alcantara Carta Zucchero blue accents, carbon racing seats, an LED carbon steering wheel, special contrast stitching, colour matched seat and headliner sections, yellow calipers, and TPMS. Included with the car are 2 keys, a car cover, books, and a very well documented history.
This is a car that feels purposeful from the moment you open the door. The stripped back cabin, carbon details, and motorsport derived controls set the stage for one of Ferrari’s most engaging naturally aspirated V8 experiences, a machine that still feels special every time the starter is pressed.
