360's have really grown on me. Just as well now four years in. I was not a fan at first but looking at this picture from a low level...
Loaded up for the FCA annual meeting in Scottsdale AZ. I can't wait to get out there and drive amongst the Saguaro.
Some info on the car i found on the internet: A stock Ferrari F430 Spider has been taken into the workshop by Anderson Germany. The German tuner from Dusseldorf transformed the Italian spider into a Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M Conversion Edition. The exclusive reconstruction includes a front air dam, side skirts, a rear apron and adjustment of the exhaust system. The bodywork was fitted with a black paint finish called Hyper Black. The Scuderia Stripes are in carbon steel with a yellow border. A tint on front and rear lights is not unseen. The exterior carbon package includes an engine grille, a rear diffuser, mirrors and covers under the hood. The performance increase from 490 to now 569hp resulted partly from a software optimization and a different exhaust system, which includes Renn-Kats and modified headers. A three-level remote adjustable racing damper control is used as well. The weight savings achieved were 29kg; a rise of at least 38hp. The crew of the German tuner equipped this Italian sports car with a set of three-piece glossy black wheels with carbon and yellow border and 20 inch 235er tires at the front and 325er at the rear axle. The sport suspension is understandably in reasonable limits, according to the Germans. The yellow brake caliper paint and window tinting are hard to miss. The entire interior finishing was carried out with carbon black leather and Alcantara of the same color and yellow diamond Kederrand seams. The carbon package for the interior includes carbon on the steering wheel, door handles, doorsill plates, handbrake lever and shift paddles. The exhaust system is from Capristo and has a remote control to choose Loud or Very loud sound. The conversion was a one off project that was very expensive at that time { 2011 } for € 135.660,= or US$ 160,000.00

If I could ask, could you post a pic of the engine bay? That yellow intake is simply stunning and would love to see a full bay pic if you would please. Thanks in advance.
Okay, By the way while doing this I found out why they use wrinkle red paint on the intakes. The aluminum casting is really rough. Took many hours of prep sanding to make it smooth. And no, I couldn't find wrinkle yellow paint to match. I used a wheel center cap on the oil fill because it was pitted really bad. Was a temp fix but decided on leaving it. You can never have too many horses, look at the center of the a/c adjustment ring - LOL Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thank you for uploading the image, The work that went in to it is well worth the outcome in my opinion as it looks amazing, I personally like the smooth look that has been created here, and the center cap compliments the intake nicely. I actually might steal the center cap idea from you and add it to my 430 as I like how it adds additional color to the engine bay. Thanks again
Thanks, I will gladly send you a center cap if you want yellow. I had to buy a set of four. I also painted my a/c airflow rings to add color to the inside.

Thank you for the kind gesture, but I already have a couple of spares lying around, but now with your idea I now have a use for at least one.
