          The interior picture - there wasn't a clutch pedal! Does this Ferrari have an automatic transmission?

            The clutch will soon go the way of the dodo bird. The new automated clutches are will out perform the old style clutch in every way possible. The only thing the old school clutch has the that the new version doesnt is feel.

              It has what Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear would call a "flappy paddle gearbox", but what Ferrari calls their F1 gearbox. It's a sequential manual actuated by paddles behind the steering wheel and will change gears in as little as 150 milliseconds. This is sort of a trickle down technology from Ferrari Formula 1 race cars, which have been using this sort of system since 1989. In current F1 race spec the dual clutch system changes gears almost instantaneously (FIA regulations will not allow a truly "seamless shift" system).

                MY DREAM CAR!! UGH! Except my dream F430 would have to be a Scuderia or even going a bit more adventurous and go for a mid-2000's Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale in Rosso Corsa!!

                    sometimes i think hex are softer , a lighter correction than meg?!
                    i use meg too , but for some reason i end up using hex.

                    depends of the paint ....
