I think the pic Scorcher has posted is of Kerala's newest F430 which is Racetech'd. It was earlier in Mumbai and is CH registered. The other F430 which arrived in Cochin from Chennai shares garage with an Audi R8 and a Porsche 911, I hope I am not wrong !! |

Yes, the pic I posted was of the new arrival. CH regd F430 with Scuderia stripes and Kreissieg exhausts. It's not on sale, moreover, the next addition to the garage is also almost lined up ;) Also, keep your cams ready, the new Fezza is in Cochin at the moment! |

IMHO, I feel the hotelier's F430 kind of looks better and 'fresh' compared to the Trichur F430, especially after hearing that the previous owners ripped it like hell. And I think the black alloys don't do justice to the car. It can either be the stock ones which looks great on the standard F430 or the actual golden ones from the 'real' scuderia would look even more amazing. But hey, no offense meant, that's just me talking. But those exhaust notes, I heard that they are insane! Now that's something totally fitting for a Ferrari. I thought there was a Novitec Roso mod for the hotelier's F430 but got no confirmation from anyone on this. |

Comparing the Thrissur and Cochin F430s are like comparing apples and oranges, they're totally different cars from totally different backgrounds. The Cochin car is a newer (08), well pampered, low mileage (2500kms!) car, while the Thrissur car is an older (07), thoroughly used example. The differences were hugely evident in the price as well. Even with the current owners, DN is someone who pampers all his cars and mostly takes them out at night when the traffic is less and the air is cooler, and the Thrissur guys, on the other hand, as evident from the videos on YouTube, prefers thrashing around the Fezza in rush hours and even in the rains. The CH car had a rough life, and the TN car has lived life fit for a Fezza. I too agree, the blacked out rims of the Thrissur car looks a tad shabby, if you look closely, the black paint from the front wheel has been chipped off at lot of places. It deserves better shoes, preferably BBS or HREs. |

That's the best garage in TVM. Hope they would soon add a supercar to their collection. This must be bought from the Mumbai showroom, I guess. Does MINI have any plans to open a new showroom, anywhere in South, this year? |

And I also heard that DN had a look at the CH F430 in the first place and was not happy with the condition and then he found this. Not sure how true is that news anyway. Yeah, the previous owner (or owners?) did a shabby job with the rims. And I felt the same for the Scuderia stickers, why pretend the car is a Scuderia, which is way superior. Not fitting for a Ferrari. Its like a fake badging that you do on a car to show it's a much higher variant. But hey, each to his own. |

Rather pointless, but may I ask about parking these beauties out in the open? And the Thrissur guys are known for their in-depth knowledge about technical stuff, aren't they? Just joking, not arguing with you. |

The Thrissur F430 is in Trivandrum from last night. Keep an eye out for it. Here are couple of pics when it came to Coffee Day, Kowdiar last night. I missed the car by 5 mins, from what I heard from my friends, he blasted up and down the Kowdiar stretch four times and later went to Leela, Kovalam. Expect it to see it in the city anytime :) |
