Red F430? How unimaginative!
Though seriously, if you 'spotted' the F430 and are not in any way related to the owner you could post the images and your thoughts in one post instead of rationing out information.

Clap clap!
Yes, it was confirmed about 2 weeks back that there's a Ferrari in town and we regulars have been wondering if it was a front-engined or mid engined one.
And it was expected to be a 430 by most.
I have a gut feeling that its Mr.totaled red 360 spider who owns it.

its gonna be a tough call...the person jus came back from some place in asia...but is still looking at other countries for parts.....the tough part is that the entire rear was burnt and the engine block is safe but most of the parts were melted and all the cosmetic parts like the dash, seats front r mostly intact....and fibre glass parts are difficult to fix...but god bless him...hope he is able to fix it

Just wondering..if there is so much to fix,wouldn't it make sense in the car being written off? Its almost like re-doing 60-70% of the car.
