A new [COLOR=#000000! important][COLOR=#000000! important]Ferrari[/color][/color] supercar has been spotted outside the carmaker’s factory in Maranello, leading to speculation that a new model could be in the works. The car’s mid-engine layout and similar proportions to the F430 could mean this is a test mule for the successor of the current supercar. However, the completed look of the new model suggests that it could be a [COLOR=#000000! important][COLOR=#000000! important]new [COLOR=#000000! important]concept [/color][COLOR=#000000! important]car[/color][/color][/color] or oven a custom coachbuilt model based on the F430.
Ferrari has confirmed that it plans a return to its coachbuilding heritage this year, and is already working closely with Italian design houses Fioravanti, Pininfarina and Zagato.

Other reports suggest the car is the new Ferrari F500, a 5.0L successor to the F430 that could appear as early as next year. According to AutoBild, Ferrari is planning to increase output to around 500hp to remain competitive with cars like the [COLOR=#000000! important][COLOR=#000000! important]Porsche [COLOR=#000000! important]GT2[/color][/color][/color] and even Nissan’s GT-R, which are beginning to encroach into [COLOR=#000000! important][COLOR=#000000! important]exotic [COLOR=#000000! important]car[/color][/color][/color] territory with their performance levels

This must be a one-off for a special client. The profile looks kind of hideous if you ask me.

Fioravanti coachbuilt Ferrari F430 spied at Fiorano





The automotive web lit up this weekend with speculation over a mysterious Ferrari photographed running development laps around the Fiorano test track.. While some suggest this could be the successor to either the F430 or the Enzo, observers were confused by the complete lack of any apparent effort to disguise the car's bodywork. The latest reports now indicate that the vehicle in question is a one-off rebodied F430 custom made by Italian design house Fioravanti for what must be an incredibly wealthy customer.
The emergence of the purported Fioravanti F430 follows similar creations from Pininfarina, Giugiaro and Zagato (and reportedly soon from Touring) as well as the announcement of Ferrari's program to offer discerning (and financially unlimited) clients with custom models. The criteria call for leaving certain elements – including the crash structures and the running gear – intact, but apart from that it's open season. The Fioravanti take on the F430 includes a mildly re-sculpted front end, a heavily-modified rear section and an extensive remolding of many body panels in lightweight (and costly) carbon fiber. The vehicle looks about ready for delivery, so we hope we might get a chance for an up-close view at the upcoming Paris show in October.

Booooring, I was hoping this was the new "Enzo"

Face lifted F430?

Probably a mule for the F142 disguised in a random body.
