Ferrari F 430 Spyder
Ferrari has nothing for the common cold, but if you suffer worries, boredom, grouchiness, or that debilitating ennui that settles in on Sunday afternoons around four o'clock, it has a hot new pill, and you won't need to call the doctor in the morning.
One button pushed for 20 seconds drops the top of the new Ferrari F430 Spider into its lascivious splash of aluminum bodywork. Yes, just
20 seconds to a new and brighter you! Need more? Now try the button on the steering wheel, the one that says "Start." Suddenly, you hear
that sonorous purrrrrr, fast, fat, and deep, like a Bengal tiger getting its tummy scratched. That's a 483-hp, 4.3-liter V-8 tugging on your leash,
so you'd better want to run.
First gear stretches out to 8500 rpm, howling to make your shanks shake. Second gear should get you 60 mph in about 3.6 seconds and a misdemeanor conviction in four flat. Keep the hammer down through third, fourth, and fifth, and sixth will burn your scalp clean off at 186 mph,
or so Ferrari claims.
