Is there any hint at what might be going to replace the F430 or when it will be replaced now that its getting a few years on it ?

I hear it'll be red, mid engined, and have 4 wheels. It'll also be slightly faster than the 430. Hope that helps.

Will also have Ferrari badges as standard I believe.





....In other words I have no clue. Don't think anything has been announced yet.

Rumour has it, that the new Ferrari is actually going to be green!





Something to do with a smaller V8 but turbocharged apparently. Ahh, why dont they just re-release the 288 GTO! Bit of modern technology in it. Would be wonderful.

I have it on good authority the badges will be a £10,000 option. It'll come with Fiat badges as standard. On both wings, the front bumper, the rear bumper, the roof, the doors and etched on the windows.

The 360 came out in 1999 and lasted to 2004/2005 I think, so a replacement maybe due next year?

Serious reply time, my predictions are thus:
twin clutch gearbox and no manual offered.
Will they launch it in the current climate? Maybe theyll postpone it a bit until 2011 when things might be slightly back to normal.
