Spied: Custom Ferrari
A customized F430 was caught in Maranello.

A slightly obstructed view of the supercar.
We appear to be seeing one of the first fruits of Ferrari’s build-your-own supercar program, as spy shooters caught this F430-based speedster in Maranello, Italy.
This car seems to bear the imprint of Italian design house Fioravanti, with sleek lines that extend from the front bumper to the rear of the car.
Up front, it gets significant detailing, though the F430 lights remain. The back takes circular lights from the 599, which frame the mesh cooling grille. Shallow flying buttresses are also evident, an apparent Pininfarina styling element.
The car makes considerable use of carbon fiber--it’s on the side skirts, mirrors, roof and lower front spoiler. Large vents are placed in the front-wheel arches, possibly for performance (or simply because they look cool).
This supercar is thought to be set for an Asian collector, and it joins Pininfarina’s P4/5, Giugiaro’s GG50 and Zagato’s 575 GTZ, as one-offs from coachbuilders.
This program isn’t cheap--estimated cost is $3.1 million--but you get to use the F430, 612 Scaglietti or Enzo as a canvass. Ferrari says customers cannot change certain things, such as the drivetrain, front windshield and other Ferrari genes.
