NO, this is not the Ferrari 430 Scruderia, that Michael Schumacher crashed some weeks ago, that’s been badly repaired and got a re-paint. This 430 is a mule for the upcoming Enzo successor.We can notice that the track is wider and the wheelbase is slightly longer. In the rear, the first thing that really caught our eyes is the massive Murcielago looking exhaust pipe in the middle. And the sound of this car is just great. The normal exhaust pipes from the Scruderia are just fake.
For the new “Enzo”, still called FX 70 internally, Ferrari is working on two different engines alternatives. First one is a twin-turbo V8 producing about 700 horsepower, and second one is a twin-turbo V12 delivering some 50-100 horsepower more.
It’s a difficult choice, to keep the supercar status they should keep it a V12, but with the CO2 discussions
and the popular downsizing the V8 twin-turbo could well be a good decision for Ferrari.
With more carbon fibre in both chassis and body, this will hopefully be a true lightweight super car.
