The Ferrari F 430 Challenge Trasformata GT3 has been delivered by Ferrari to
|
|
the Ferrari dealership Loris Kessel located in Lugano/Switzerland on the
|
|
25.10.2007. The Ferrari invoice shows a selling price at 400.000,- CHF. Out of
|
|
unknown reasons the car was never used in the next few years until it was sold
|
|
to its second and last private German based owner in 2012. The contract of
|
|
sale in that time is showing a mere 100 km as an odometer mileage. It is
|
|
reported by the only and last owner that it never had participated in any serious
|
|
race. It was more a backup testing car which was frequently driven on private
|
|
events.
|
|
The limited version of the F 430 GT3 has a radically reduced weight of only
|
|
1.219 kg compared to 1.350 kg of a normal F 430 and the 1250 kg of the 430
|
|
Scuderia. This was the result of an exhaustive schedule of removing all
|
|
unnecessary items. The GT3 has been developed by Kessel Racing under the
|
|
supervision of Ferrari. Only 100 of these cars were produced. The rersulting car,
|
|
designated the F 430 GT3, was superior to the F 430 Challenge in terms of more
|
|
highly developed aerodynamics and increased output, even through both
|
|
utilised the same 4.3 litre, V8 engine.
