Ferrari 430 16M Scuderia Spider

Ferrari has released the F430 Scuderia after winning its 16th Formula one constructors championship last week. The Scuderia Spider 16M gets all the goodies from the lightweight Scuderia coupe like the 510 hp 4.3L V8 and the 6-speed F1 paddle shift gearbox. Ferrari is claiming the Scuderia Spider is the fastest open top model they've ever tested around the Fiorano test track, presumably beating out even the might F50 of decade ago.
The Scuderia is 176 lbs lighter than a standard F430 spider at 2954 lbs dry. The car is able to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 3.7 seconds and at 195.7 mph of top speed. As a limited series model Ferrari has of course added lots of distinguishing features like a carbon fiber shell around the roll bar, number plaque on the dash and special interior trim packages.
