Would you just look at that "Bloody Red Thing!"
Ferrari who won their 16th constructors title in Formula 1 has celebrated with a spider version of the great and ultimate F430 Scuderia. They call it ....
The F430 Scuderia Spider 16M
The "16" denotes Ferrari's total number of F1 constructors championships. Just take a look at that awesome shape!! I can't help thinking that it actually looks better than it's hard top brother!
If it's the looks your after. I think this is a good choice. But if it's performance your after, hmmm... let's take a closer look at the papers. Shall we?...
It's bigger brother, the hardtop F430 Scuderia is all about weight loss - 100kg lighter than the stock version of the Ferrari F430. Now why is the Scud Spider only 10kg lighter than the stock F430? I should point out that a car's roof helps strengthen the car. It makes it stiff and strong. If you take it out. Only the floor remains as the strengthening bone of the front and the rear of the car which as lots of people has said that it makes a car feel like foam that it twists about. So engineers have to put more strengthening beams and stuff to the floor just to make it stiff and safe. These added strengthening parts adds weight. So that means with more weight it gonna be abit slow.
To make you feel abit better. Just think of... that it's 80kg lighter than the stock F430 spider! That will help you abit!
So let's take a look what this car can do...
- It still has the legendary 510bhp, 4.3-litre V8 engine
- Will hit 0-100kph in 3.7 seconds - a mere tenth slower than the hard it's hard top big brother and a full .4 quicker than the stock F430 spider
- Top Speed is 316kph (Ohh did I say the extra weight slows it down?)
