I don't think you can get a brand new F430, as they are all pre sold, and the ones you can get are used F430's that are kinda brand new

They still gave it four stars, which is what they gave the IS-F, the main thing was the cost, in pounds sterling.

Maybe I was shooting too high but 4 stars and comments about a lack-luster transmission aren't really what I expected after 6 years of development.
