Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M first details and pictures ...
Dear Ultimatecarpage.com visitor,
Ferrari traditionally ends the season with the 'World Finals' at the Mugello track. The 'Scuderia Ferrari' Formula 1 drivers and cars are joined by various Historic and Modern Challenges. The 2008 'Finale Mondiale' was held this weekend and Ferrari decided to celebrate their year style with the unveiling of the Scuderia Spider 16M.
The stripped-out version of the F430 Spider has been the subject of many rumors and it was not a question of 'if', but rather 'when'. The specification is identical to that of the 430 Scuderia coupe. The obvious difference is the convertible roof and additional weight to strengthen the drop-top chassis. According to Ferrari it is the fastest open road car they have ever produced.
The '16M' in the type name refers to the 16 Constructor World Championships the Ferrari Formula 1 team has won. The first one was secured in 1961 and the most recent one last weekend at the Brazilian Grand Prix. That race had a very mixed result for the team, but at Mugello all that seemed to have been forgotten amidst the Scuderia Spider launch and celebrations of a great season of modern and historic racing.
Production of the Scuderia Spider 16M is limited to just 499 examples.
