I think it looks great. The 430 basically looks like a modern version of the 360, and it should since it replaces it. This again brings the model up to date and it even has touches like the headlights which are similar to the new California's.

I also like the fact it looks "smoother" than the current 430 that looks a little fussy in some places. I love the fact the old 360 had a "smooth" simple design. The one thing missing from this sketch is the shoulder intake which features on the 360 and 430. I wish it was still there because now it doesnt look like its replacing the 430. It looks like a whole new model.

maybe its just me but i don't think the F360 or F430 will ever look outdated

nusevad · 05-10-2009, 08:19 PM

sick concept art, i wouldnt be disappointed if the final product looked like that.

i don't no man that's the thing about Ferrari there timeless they'll always look modern (IMO)

BMW F22 · 05-10-2009, 08:32 PM

Wow they're already coming out with a new model? I wonder how much that's gonna affect the resale value of the 430. The sketch looks hot though!

One of my favorite "modern" Ferraris is the 355, I still think it looks great, but park it next to a 360, not to mention a 430 and it just looks old, and I never really loved the styling of the 360. The 360 has no proper grille (a Ferrari needs a proper grille), you can tell that it was styled in a wind tunnel.

I'm the same way; I wasn't all about the 360's exterior. That is until the Challenge Stradale came out

not bad

Wow, that's hot but I wish that the new F450 doesn't look anything like the California.

Old or classic?

NewSong · 05-11-2009, 02:40 AM

I may be going against the grain here but I think the F360 Modena is one of the most beautiful Ferrari's of the recent models. I actually prefer it to the F430, and over that sketch.

+1000

To be honest, I still love the old 355. The old 355 and 360 interiors look dated, but the body design is amazing.

rubber_ducky · 05-11-2009, 08:07 AM

dead sexy.

Garduna · 05-11-2009, 10:49 AM

It'll be interesting if they will retain that smoother look to the new F430 when it does come out

Wait 15-20 years and see if you think the same.

I think this sketch is the closest to what the F500 will look like. I wish Motor Trend would have done more than just the front 3/4 sketch.

I like it.

Year's_End · 05-11-2009, 12:52 PM

Agreed on many points. It brings the entry level midengine Ferrari up to date. You can see all the trendy modern details, like the headlight brightwork, the surfacing and the more upright hood.

On one hand, it looks great; Taught, aggressive and very modern Ferrari-esque. On the other hand, I think it loses a lot of the classic lines of the outgoing models. Then again, all cars lose those "classic" lines because we need innovative designs, and you can only do so much with the same template.

I'm a fan.

hks786 · 05-11-2009, 03:56 PM

^^^ Agreed, as usual lol. I always knew the 450 would have to be something really different. I cant see what more they could have done to the 430.

Robin_NL · 05-11-2009, 04:20 PM

stunning looks.

So by 2040 the greatgrandson Ferrari 790 Pizzeria would be my choice. After decades of saving....

OBI_agent · 05-11-2009, 07:06 PM

I absolutely love this rendering.......It gives a futuristic yet classic look....it's a great evolution to the current F430. I hope it's stunner.

Meanwhile, I found another rendering of the so called F500.

Check it out

Off topic, here's a rendering of upcoming model from Mclaren dubbed P11
