That is a lovely example love the colour and the contrasting interior - highly specced too looks a real beauty

Same scheme as mine. Love it. I think they look sharper in Silverstone. My only gripe is the challenge wheels - they are too dated for the F430. Easily rectified though.

Ahh it was an image posted above. Stock wheels are so much nicer than the old fashioned challenge though, in fact I think they suit the car more than the scud wheels.

Love the brakes, really like Giallo calipers, don't think mileage is too high given the price and spec, but *shrug*

'Tis sold so obviously someone comfortable with it.

+1 for preferring standard wheels too.

Each to there own I guess, when I was looking challenge wheels and ceramics were a must have for me, really dislike the standard wheels, scud wheels a bit better but still not a huge fan.

I was planning on seeing this one, it looked great to me!

Is it just me, but with all the standard F430 wheels, the back wheels look smaller then the front? I guess its got something to do with them maybe being concave?

Or the fact that there's more tyre sidewall at the rears, I know what you mean though smile

The rear wheels are much wider which gives the impression that they are smaller, but it's an optical illusion of sorts. The profile and alloy diameter is the same all round.

I love it smile I'm a touch biased though wink
Everyone I speak to about mine makes comment about it not being red, usually in a positive way.
