Overview
This 2005 Ferrari F430 Spider shines in rarified Rubino Micalizzato over Natural leather. Low mileage and well-kept condition benefit its stunning spec—complete with fresh front PPF and diligent maintenance.

Top up or down, F1 automated shifting and an unforgettable naturally aspirated exhaust note elevate this first-year Spider’s exotic appeal. Outside, ‘Scuderia Ferrari’ shields, cross-drilled brakes and Aluminum-finish calipers sit behind 19” Challenge-style wheels. This iconic V8 Ferrari shows just over 12k miles and is now offered with a clean title, Carfax report, and Seller’s Disclosure. Two key fobs, the car’s window sticker, and records from current ownership accompany the sale.
.
Unveiled in 2005, the Maranello, Italy-built F430 Spider arrived powered by a 4.3L V8 engine, a significant evolution over its predecessor, the 360. The first in a series of new generation V8 engines for Ferrari, the power unit flaunted 11.3:1 compression and 490hp. The car's innovative design incorporated features such as a flat-plane crankshaft and Ferrari's first use of the 'Manettino' steering wheel-mounted control knob, offering drivers the ability to modify vehicle settings while in motion. This feature embodied Ferrari's commitment to iterative race-tech in its production offerings.
.
Aesthetically, the F430 Spider’s Pininfarina styling married an aggressive stance and aerodynamic efficiencies with the added allure of open-air driving. The power convertible roof was meticulously engineered to fold seamlessly into the bodywork, preserving the car's sleek lines. Extensive wind tunnel testing, netted innovations including a rear diffuser and underbody streamlining to enhance stability and performance at high speeds. Inside, fine materials and high craftsmanship met state-of-the-art technology, further elevating a driver-focused experience behind the wheel.
