Ferrari F430 Start and Rev

[creamyfilling102]

it sounds like a goddamn 2 cycle dirt bike.

[TheBran1262]

wait for video to load fully and press the 2 key for start up

[Warblade118]

Sounds a bit like a buzz saw.

[TheMarcocatanzaro]

VIVA L'ITALIA... FERRARI THE BEST IN THE WORLD !!! PASTA.. PIZZA E FERRARI !!!! ;)

[autumnstang97]

Is that the Ferrari dealer in Redwood City, Ca?

[metalwasp]

ferrari they just burst into flames :P

[oasis1242]

@metalwasp issue fixed

[metalwasp]

@oasis1242 m..hmm! the old ones are way more cooler

[rosscoe01]

OMG that little burble it made just before the engine fired..... Incredible sounding machine. :)

[maurob1979]

lamborghini for ever

[rminb010204]

@mathyu0179 In a straight line? With their huge amounts of displacement and forced induction, yes. But American cars are very scared of anything close to a curve. I'd love to see a muscle car attempt to go around a track.

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Americans use bulldozers to move mountains and hills so that the roads are relatively straight. We don't need cars with 1 liter engines for negotiating old, guardrailess roads.

[flanksteak1]

Actually, I think this sounds like crap.

[ResourcefulSkater]

@flanksteak1 good, go rev up ur civic then :P

[flanksteak1]

I only get off on the sound of American V8's.

These ferraris have shitty sounding exhausts compared to their earlier counterparts?

[ResourcefulSkater]

idk i think it sounds bad ass, but thats prolly cuz the f430 spiders my dream car lol

[rminb010204]

They don't sound like an "American V8" because they have a flat plane crank, no counter weight = faster engine response and higher revs. That counter balanced cross plane crank gives you that low rumbly noise in American v8's.

I'm personally a fan of mid to high pitched engines.

[1stSgtSoulStealer]

@rminb010204 So your gay than?

[rminb010204]

@1stSgtSoulStealer American "muscle" cars are more like pansies who need huge amount of displacement to get any sort of power. The sound reminds me of a fat-ass American after having a meal that can kill a horse. "Fart-Fart -Fart." Since a Ferrari can pass the 6k rpm threshold you know it doesn't have a pathetic excuse of an engine. What are you going to do next, call me gay for hating country music? You hick.

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Not really. We just need less RPM's to make power. We like torque and so would you if you ever experienced it.

[rminb010204]

@flanksteak1 So, a Ferrari 458 (with a 4.5l V8) produces 562 hp with 400 lb-ft of torque. It get's 85% of that power at 3000 rpm (340). So it has a peak power range from 3200 rpm to 8400 rpm. Compare that to a Z06 with a 7.0l V8 producing 505 hp and 470 lb-ft at 5000 rpm. At 3000 rpm the Z06 produces 220 lb-ft at 3000. Torque? No problem for true Italian muscle.

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 The Corvette costs 80,000 dollars, the ferrari costs 300,000 dollars. The math is simple.

[rminb010204]

@flanksteak1 It's not money we're talking about. The engineering of the car is proof that the Italians can engineer a much superior power train in a smaller package.

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Ah ok so money has nothing to do with what the manufacturer is able to provide you at a certain price point. We all know that Italians have problems with chest hair falling into the castings. Do you think they charge for that?

[rminb010204]

@flanksteak1 So now that you have no argument you just jump to some stereotype?

Even if money is a concern you can go out and get a used F430. 40 WHP less and you can find them as low as 120K. If you can spend 80k on a car I'm sure you can spend 120K on a car.

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Money is always a concern. I can afford the Corvette, I can't afford the Ferrari. FYI, the Vette is 65,000 not 80,000. For 4 times the price, I bet Chevy could add some improvements to the Vette. Don't you think?

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Certainly you wouldn't argue that a manufacturer who gives you leather interior over cloth for 4 times the price is actually getting you the nicer finish because they are better at designing interiors than the manufacturer who is providing with cloth and that price plays no role, so why would you argue that Chevy is bad at engineering because their horsepower per liter is lower when the Vette is 4 times cheaper than the Ferrari?

[flanksteak1]

@rminb010204 Just as a another FYI, I would never spend more than 5k on a new car. I own a couple classics (AMERICAN) classics. Airplanes are my hobby. People with nice cars buy them simply to drive around to show people how much money they have since you cannot drive a Ferrari or the Vette to it's full potential on the street there is no reason to even have a car with that much performance. HAVE A NICE DAY!

[rminb010204]

@flanksteak1 Those people are obnoxious. There are plenty of nice cars out there that they can drive to "show off." If they offered me a Ferrari F430 with the body of an Accord on it I'd happily accept. There are raceways where these cars can show their true colors. I live in Washington and only 20 minutes from where I live there is a track called "Pacific raceways." That's where Ferraris and Corvettes need to be.

[SLASHBIKER1980]

@flanksteak1 we Italians lose hair only in the beds of horned ...........

[1stSgtSoulStealer]

@flanksteak1 Amen to that brother. These "exotic" cars sound like babys blowing farts with their lips...American Muscle V-8 sounds like the balls have dropped and ready to take a dump all over everything else.

[jackfrin]

lol civic only wishes it was american

[schl0tte]

@flanksteak1

yeah. sounds like my rc model airplane

[COMANDOXRPUEBLA]

y siempre si lo compro?

[TheRacer17]

Mmm, sounds good....I'll take it :)

[Blackout690]

Ya, Ferrari's don't really sound that great until you get to some high RPM's (atleast that's true with the F430)

[2BellProductions]

It doesn't sound deep enough

very nice looking motor though

[djhellita]

inox :)

[kunjaffxi]

in my oppinion, it doesn't sound too nice

it idles too high, and sounds kind of tinny

[Lautaro5000]

Alta nave papá :P

[fortynotty]

Hmmm, an Italian sound worth one million dollars.  Who else? Pavarotti!

[Blosterblu]

very nice sound

[dinosmetallica]

this sound is like SONG......OUAOU

[phantomphreaq]

It sounds like the Norse God Of Thunder gargaling a hammer!!

The F430 is an astonishing piece of engineering

[stevewallbridge92]

isnt that basically a quote off top gear?

Clarkson i believe! haha

[phantomphreaq]

Yup it certainly is, and not a more apt quote for this car there is.

Phenominal!

[BrianZuksSupportTeam]

Great job Brian! Keep up the good work!

[MoPar7055]

Does this have a flat plane crank?

[marek0086]

it sure does!........u can always tell by the sound.

[MoPar7055]

Some Vipers I've heard (cross plane crank) sound like they have a flat plane crank. Kind of

[marek0086]

thats because they are a V10!.....not V8. More cylinders.....the more "raspy" the sound.

[MoPar7055]

You just contradicted yourself, you're saying more cylinders makes it more raspy (thus more like a cross plane crank) but I'm saying the v10 sounded like a flat plane.

[marek0086]

no i didnt contradict myself...u just misunderstood what i said.

flat plane v8 gives a much more "raspy" sound than a cross plane v8.

it is not possible to have a flat-plane crank in a V10. What u meant was.....it sounded like a flat-plane cranked *V8*

[MoPar7055]

I think the misunderstanding is in the word raspy. This car doesn't sound raspy to me.

[marek0086]

ye fair enough. It also depends on the design and material of the exhaust system. The exhaust system can make an engine sound like something else.....however.....no exhaust system can ever fool a well trained ear.

[MoPar7055]

So you're saying that more cylinders can make it sound more like a flat plane even though its a cross plane?

[marek0086]

It *can*. Like i said...also depends on exhaust layout...etc. Many people would even say that this is a V12...as it sounds *similar*.

[MoPar7055]

What the ferrari or the Viper? How many cylinders does the Ferrari have?

[marek0086]

these ferraris are all V8's. Ye i was talking bout the ferrari. Coz when people think "V8"......they imagine the sound of a 'chev 350' or 'ford cleveland 351'...and the like.

Remeber....a V10 or V12 can not have a 'flat-plane' crankshaft.

[1exotic]

would be funny if he just lost control and smahed that 360 in front and smashed threw the window and drove out off the deallerr!!!

[phantomphreaq]

Sorry. Just HAD to watch it again. Even just to hear it.:o)

It sounds like the Norse God of Thunder gargling a hammer! lol

[phantomphreaq]

God the F430 is an ASTONISHING piece of engineering lol

[spiter22]

ferraris r kool as hell!!!!

[DEF90JAM]

yeah the coupes allways have a stiffer chassis but i personally think a cabriolet is women, sissys and old people. But to each his own i guess

[Xeones100]

THE SOUND OF GOD GROWLING.

[Panonymous]

Are both of your Porsche's same model because one might have been a later model than the other...

[miniqc]

ferrari + tubi = sick sound!!!!!

[050999742]

I have sat in an F430 before. :)

[Panonymous]

What looks better!? F430 spider with the roof up and down or F430 Coupe?! What would you buy?

[nascarfan200]

coupe, It's stiffer and lighter

[solzol]

you have so right!

[AE86truenofan]

that is one good sounding car

[bob666bob666]

I just bought myslef a F50 with Tubi SHIT its loud i can post Video if u want

[iXetsuei]

Please do, I've watched some other videos with F50s that have Tubis on them. They sound awesome.

[sirlongley]

i agree,im not boasting but i had tubi installed a short time ago on mine, major improvement all around.

[itzsyk]

amazing sound, but i'd say go with the Tubi exhaust

[ZedarKiller]

all the Ferraries sound great!

[Flokinhorox]

"que bello"

[transwired]

I was there when they had Maserati MC12 - sickest car people! They sold it in 3 days! Fucking Larry Page!

[MetalHeadXi158]

LOL!

[raverscottyboy]

ferrari's sound like tht outside aswell lol i gotta 360.

[Coderoid]

f430 always sounds sonorous

[cbh76]

Me either! I remember when they had the Maserati MC12.

[behahve1]

That little boy must have pissed himself with Glee!

Me too...
