Underground Racing knows a thing or two about charging up supercars and making them faster than they already are. They did it before with a Lamborghini Gallardo by adding a set of twin-turbo engines and a modified exhaust system to spike up the Gallardo’s power to over 1,000 bhp. Not content with what they’ve accomplished, these guys decided to do the same thing with a Ferrari 430 Spider.
As the video will show you, Underground Racing did a heck of a job again with the 430 Spider. A set of twin-turbo engines and a reviewed exhaust system later, coupled with dyno testing and a test run out on the road, the 430 Spider now boasts of the same power as that previous Gallardo – all 1,000 horsepower of pure, unadulterated madness.
Carbon body kits may not look all that impressive from afar, but believe us, up close and personal, they’re about as mouth-watering as any type of body kit you can come up with – unless of course, you find one made of gold, which, surprisingly, there are a lot of running around in this world.
Anyway, just to hammer out our point regarding the awesomeness that is a carbon body kit, the folks over at GT Spirit came across this ultra-exclusive Ferrari 430 Scuderia Spider 16M Carbon Edition. Looks pretty much like any other 430 Scuderia Spider, right?
Take a close look then.
Now if you’re not a big fan of the carbon body kit with an additional set of four carbon wheels, then that’s your call. But if you don’t find this limited-run 430 Scuderia Spider 16M – the ‘16M’ label is a reference to Ferrari’s 16th Formula One Constructors Championship - not the least bit attractive, then there’s something wrong with you.
The car may not be as tidy as we’d hope but we’re giving the owner the benefit of the doubt. Besides, not everyone has the resources to buy a Ferrari, let alone a special edition 430 Scuderia Spider like this one.
In the pantheon of all-time wasted car crashes, you can’t get any rarer than a Ferrari and a Lamborghini crashing into each other. While those incidences don’t occur too often, they, unfortunately still do, as evidenced by this Lamborghini Murcielago crashing into a Ferrari F430 during a VIP wedding reception for one of the ruling political parties in the town of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
While the cause of the accident remains unclear, both drivers managed to escape the crash without any major injuries, although their bruised egos could have led to the rather heated incident after the crash.
Witnesses said that the two drivers involved in the crash – one of which, is a hitman-for-hire, by the way – got into a scuffle with some of the folks who were trying to take photos of the crash. Apparently, these two guys didn’t take too kindly to the folks trying to capture their embarrassing crash on film.
In any case, it’s a shame that two perfectly awesome supercars ended up crashing unceremoniously, courtesy of these two fellows who seem to have taken the phrase ‘wedding crashers’ to an entirely new level.
You’re going to have to excuse those people who think that the sounds of revving engines are nothing more than just noise. It’s not their fault that they can’t appreciate what we consider as music to our ears. After all, musical taste is subjective and for us car enthusiasts, the sound of a roaring engine is enough to put us on a catatonic state of euphoria.
Take these two videos for example. The folks over at iCar decided to take two pretty powerful cars for a nice and friendly revving duel. On one video, we have a Heffner Performance-powered Ford GT and on the other corner...err...video...we have a Ferrari F430 Spider.
Check both videos out and see which machine gives you more goosebumps.
Usually a Ferrari F430 Spider is used in the sunny days, for drivers along the beach to impress the girls. So we guess this guy haven’t learned that rule yet!
What you see in this pictures happened in Netherlands. Lets hope those guys managed to take the car out of the snow. Wonder who’s Rudolph?
