Yup, was driving my 430 yesterday and even the guys at the dealer said the same thing. I’m a HUGE enthusiast and have literally zero interest in any new Ferrari.
Excellent video guys - thanks! I was the guy with my mate in the Honda S2000, who came to chat to you whilst you were filming!! You guys made my day!!! We had a brilliant few days in N. Wales……..
458s are just the absolute perfect car. More than enough power. Pin sharp handling and absolutely stunningly beautiful. It was leap years ahead of its time.
The 430 Scuderia is the only Ferrari I've driven, and I fell in love with it instantly. It had everything-handling, acceleration, stunning looks, and one of the best exhaust notes I've ever heard.
@ it needs nothing doing to it at all. The engine strapped to the back of your head is a massive turn on as well. Keep the hypercars and turbo charged modern hybrids. There’s no substitute for a high revving NA V8, singing all the way to the redline.
I’m sure it takes skill but he just kept doing the same spin shot over and over. It was cool the first time though the bridge the 3rd&4th I was starting to think he only knows one move
Fantastic video, super well done drone shots. As a collector and Scud owner, agree that it provides the best balance of all 3 in this video. Every time I go out for a drive, I feel fortunate and can’t stop smiling. Happy holidays! 🎉
I just stumbled upon this channel (god bless cheap whisky, holiday spirit and general joblessness). This is astonishingly good stuff. Instant like, subscribe and share.
Just a couple of minutes in and i_ve already awarded you the academy award for best motion picture, best director, best cinematography and best sound. This is looking good. But i guess that_s to be expected of quality engineering and design.
Jeeez. This is *such* a beautifully written review. And it’s beautifully shot, too: one of the best things I’ve seen on YT in a while. If I finally get round to an RHD Scud manual swap in the next few years, I’ll be sure to let you know hehehe
This is such amazing production quality I am astounded. Thank you so much for posting this and making this. It really made my heart happy. I appreciate you guys. Keep up the good work!!
Amazing, been waiting for this one to drop and it didn’t disappoint, watched it on my phone, cannot wait to watch it on my TV with the surround sound on full Three truly spectacular cars, for me there can only be one winner and its name says it all, because it is extremely Speciale in every respect Well done all, whole lot of work gone into this and it’s paid off 👏👏👏
Loved this video, I don't think many would be upset to be thrown the keys to any of these cars and given a tank of fuel and Wales as a playground. The CS has a special place in my heart on sonics alone. The 430 Scuderia driven well is as fast as a 458 Italia around Fiorano, the Speciale is peak modern Ferrari but slow by today's standards so it's now all about emotions. Pick one at random and you won't be disappointed!
Great shots, nicely put together chaps. The algorithm worked its magic today! The 360 CS noise and blend of power vs actual real world driving is the sweet spot for me, plus the timeless looks!
Hmmmm. Have all 3. CS is my fav. Scud second. Speciale 3rd. All 3 are amazing in their own way. The older cars just appeal to me personally. Cs with a Kline inconclusive exhaust sounds like an f1 car, the other two can’t compare. The scud is just an amazing raw and visceral car. The Speciale is the GOAT.
@@supercar.driver totally different, top down ads so much more to the drama with such sound! Same thing with the 16M. There is a reason why both 16M and Aperta are so much more expensive and its not just the limited numbers. They are way more desirable
Am i watching the new topgear ? These videos are so well made and always an amazing line up of cars ! Your channel is going to reach proper heights if you keep it up like this , guys, keep it up 👊♥️
2:26 Honestly speaking, the guy ,with glasses, made a really good point about not bringing an M16 to this video. I think the guy in the 458 needs a stern talking to for his decision.
Such an amazing trio of special production Ferrari V8s. Can't go wrong with any of them. I'm halfway to 100K miles on my F430 F1 berlinetta so no shock in me saying F430 for life!
excellent review, I have a manual 360 with the CS exhaust setup and can't agree more on the sound. It's very difficult to take a winner from these three, they all have pros and cons very well described in the video, fully agree!!
Wow!!! Brilliant video guys, thank you. Out of the 3, the Scuderia 430...but for Yorkshire B roads my silver 'manual' F430 with carbon bucket seats...it is peak analogue Ferrari.
I think the 360 is better with a manual, but the scud thud is better than a manual 430. Never driven a 458 but it doesn’t do it for me like the other two amazing cars.
insane video , 458 speciale as an investment car. it has gone AND still going up in value , it’s a collector’s car for sure. we won’t be surprised to see it reach $800 000 in 15 years. who doesn’t want one of the last V8 from Ferrari 😮
When you drive a standard transmission and you are just cruising along, you don't slam the gears, you shift slowly. I don't think it was the right idea that Ferrari programed the 355 F1, 360 F1, and the CS to operate that way, but they did. When you have your foot on the floor, it shifts very fast. I'm just so tired of hearing people complain about the car shifting slow when you are just cruising along.
I think the hate on the single clutch cars is overblown. Having driven everything, I actually prefer the F1 to the double clutch box BECAUSE it feels more engaging. Yes it’s imperfect. Yes the shifts hit you hard in the back, but that EXACTLY how driving a manual car feels. In the ‘perfect’ shift boxes, it’s not nearly as engaging.
I love my scud and the review hit the nail on the head. Scud and CS more engaging and thrilling to drive than the Speciale when on backroads. Scud the perfect balance of rawness of the CS and civility of the Speciale
3 awesome Ferraris and I am lucky enough to own a Stradale. With regard to the figures the Strad will easily do 190! I know because I have done it gps verified. I have mine specced with harnesses and the alcantara/tessuto interior for the ultimate race car feel. I always feel the Strad felt firm but quite compliant on the roads and but a country mile the best noise. I would have any of these cars but I wouldn’t let go of my Stradale.
I am from Britian and muscle car guy but Ferrari is the GOAT and no other comes close not Lamborghini, Porsche , Aston Martin or Mclaren comes close. The catalog of cars Ferrari has is crazy. For me I would have the Challenge Stradale. Best sounding car ever? Not so sure because plenty of cars are in the convo
I have an 08 F430 spider. It only has 20 grand Kilometres and it’s absolutely mint. Even the leather seats look new . I love it! You guys are probably all jaded with the lower end of the spectrum. But mine shifts plenty fast as I heard that they improved the shifting around 08. I guess my dream would be the 458. Beautiful!
Great video and amazing drone shots, excellent job guys ! Would have loved to see these toys for adults pushed to their limits on a track for just one or two laps ❤ I had the opportunity to drive the CS shortly on a moutain road and that is engraved in my memory: steering is perfect, throttle response insane, balance of the car so good you could gently oversteer in control exiting a corner. I guess its successor would be too efficient in such conditions, requiring to take more risks to enjoy the same...
Scud or Spec for me as they seem like a bigger/substantial step on from the base model where as I recall 'back in the day' the CS (customer cars) been no faster than the base car (in a straight line anyway). CS was prime era of Ferrari optimistic performance stats and enhanced press cars where as Scud and Spec customers got what was advertised.
I suppose to like 458, but somehow 430 looks and sounds so much better and even terrible gearbox somehow not terrible on those roads (and you can convert it to manual)
Youve clearly never driven a 430 scud. The F1 Superfast 2 gearbox in a scud is a scintillating experience and adds to the drama, nothing like the old school original F1 box which is awful
Utter shame the CS fell victim to manufacturers' need to showcase primitive automated manual transmissions in the early 2000's. Fortunately, 3 pedal conversions are now easily obtainable. CS were never on my radar with the awful F1 box. When I found one already converted, it was a no brainer to pick it up. Absolutely epic.
lately i find myself spending more and more time watching reviews for older cars than modern boring cars . thanks alot for this video
Glad you like them! We love the older cars
@@omarr6021 ripped the words right out of my mouth
You're definitely not alone there
Yup, was driving my 430 yesterday and even the guys at the dealer said the same thing. I’m a HUGE enthusiast and have literally zero interest in any new Ferrari.
Nostalgia will do that for you.
Best era of sport/super cars. Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, etc all producing some of their greatest hits.
So true
That drone shot through the bridge as the cars pass! 😮
Pretty cool right?
Incredible, isn’t it
Awesome….assume pov drone…nice.
The sound from that 360 cs is intoxicating 😍
It sure is!
3 of the most beautiful sculptured Ferrari’s ever made, just gorgeous.
They truly are!
Excellent video guys - thanks! I was the guy with my mate in the Honda S2000, who came to chat to you whilst you were filming!! You guys made my day!!! We had a brilliant few days in N. Wales……..

He sure was!! Legend
I’m sure it takes skill but he just kept doing the same spin shot over and over. It was cool the first time though the bridge the 3rd&4th I was starting to think he only knows one move
The sound out of that CS is immaculate 😮
Oh it is
Never heard of this channel before but glad I found this video. Production levels are insane
Welcome aboard!
Great video guys - nothing beats the thrill of a Scuderia slamming home gears!!!
Couldn't agree more!
Fantastic video, super well done drone shots. As a collector and Scud owner, agree that it provides the best balance of all 3 in this video. Every time I go out for a drive, I feel fortunate and can’t stop smiling. Happy holidays! 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it! We love our Scud too, such a great all rounder and often overlooked for the Strad or Speciale imo (values aside)
Outstanding production, my tv’s surround sound now becomes worth what I paid for it 😎 can’t wait for part 2, well done fellas
Pretty special in 4K right?
@@supercar.driver Awesome 👌

Thanks for sharing .
Epic as ever..
Thanks for watching buddy
❤Thank you for that Xmas present! Think, the Scuderia is the best of both worlds! Raw and pure Ferrari! Will always love these cars!🚗
Couldn't agree more! Enjoy

These guys have taken it to her new level! Well done Jonty and the team!
Thanks for watching
Wow, some amazing shots in here.
Glad you like them! Hope you watched it in 4K
Awesome video to wake up to Merry Christmas
Happy holidays!
CS is best looking - best sounding - lightest - best steering. Convert it to gated - perfection
Hold your thought on manual conversion - something we discuss in part 2?
Jeeez. This is *such* a beautifully written review. And it’s beautifully shot, too: one of the best things I’ve seen on YT in a while.
If I finally get round to an RHD Scud manual swap in the next few years, I’ll be sure to let you know hehehe
This is such amazing production quality I am astounded.
Thank you so much for posting this and making this. It really made my heart happy.
I appreciate you guys. Keep up the good work!!
Glad you enjoyed it! We went big for Christmas. Part 2 coming soon
Outdid yourselves, gentlemen! Epic video.... one I'll surely be coming back to... congrats and thanks
Glad you enjoyed it 🎉
Who needs Netflix, right? Great job. I'll take the CS, thank you.
This makes us happy
360CS my favorite forever!!
It’s a legend that’s for sure
Amazing, been waiting for this one to drop and it didn’t disappoint, watched it on my phone, cannot wait to watch it on my TV with the surround sound on full
Three truly spectacular cars, for me there can only be one winner and its name says it all, because it is extremely Speciale in every respect
Well done all, whole lot of work gone into this and it’s paid off 👏👏👏
Thank you Royd! Enjoy in 4k gloryb
definitely a Christmas special!!!!
Thanks for watching 🎉
Thank you guys, this was a superb Christmas gift 🙏🏼 What a line-up! Looking forward to part 2!
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it

Well said! On all counts 👍👍
Such an incredibly filmed video. This reminds me of the old top gear. The drone shots were absolutely incredible. Keep up the amazing work!
We aim to please. Thanks for watching 🙏
1:20 Your director of photography deserves a raise for this one. Hot Damn!
Stunning filming work 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
that Scuderia is my all time favourite.
It’s very special!
Tough call to chose between those trio NA V8s. But, 458 is too cool. That's my choice.
Great shots, nicely put together chaps. The algorithm worked its magic today! The 360 CS noise and blend of power vs actual real world driving is the sweet spot for me, plus the timeless looks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Plenty more to come
Literally got goosebumps watching this! Very well done gents!
Great to hear! That was the plan 🙏
I would take the CS every time.
Hmmmm. Have all 3. CS is my fav. Scud second. Speciale 3rd. All 3 are amazing in their own way. The older cars just appeal to me personally. Cs with a Kline inconclusive exhaust sounds like an f1 car, the other two can’t compare. The scud is just an amazing raw and visceral car. The Speciale is the GOAT.
Amazing. I wonder how different the Aperta really is from the Speciale, but this is such a nice Christmas surprise!
Happy holidays! Not vey different 👍
@@supercar.driver totally different, top down ads so much more to the drama with such sound! Same thing with the 16M. There is a reason why both 16M and Aperta are so much more expensive and its not just the limited numbers. They are way more desirable
Am i watching the new topgear ?
These videos are so well made and always an amazing line up of cars !
Your channel is going to reach proper heights if you keep it up like this , guys, keep it up 👊♥️
More videos like this please 😍
Sure! With pleasure
Be interesting to see a Pista vs Speciale comparison. Arguably lighter, better handling and even better looking
That can be arranged 👀
@ excellent, I look forward to it! On that note, no one has compared the 675lt vs Pista/Speciale. That would be a fantastic comparison also
Keep your ideas coming 🙏
@@supercar.driver 675lt vs 765lt, you guys do a much better job communicating sound, feel and excitement than all the silly drag race channels!
Amazing channel. Brilliant cinematography
Glad you enjoy it!
Camera angles sounds music excellent well done. Cars were also epic
Thanks for watching 🍿
Really well produced video. Congrats.
Thank you very much!
Absolute masterpiece cinematography!!! Drone shots incredible, cars amazing !!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Flipping off the audience while shifting 😂
Adam is a true multitasker 😂
Love the Scud 🔥
We do too!
Voted with my checkbook on the Scud. Most special car I have owned.
It’s the best
Hmm I guess I’ll take all three
Good choice 😂👍
2:26 Honestly speaking, the guy ,with glasses, made a really good point about not bringing an M16 to this video. I think the guy in the 458 needs a stern talking to for his decision.
Can’t do anything right can he?
Beautiful video as always, guys!
Special thanks for featuring the Aperta, to me the best car ever 😊
Our pleasure!
That was superb, really enjoyed it!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
1180 kg (dry) , 425BHP and Enzo brakes the CS at circa 330bhp/per ton simply is the perfect road racer
It is!
Why did he say 1430 kg in the video?
458 Speciale, named appropriately. It has the power and performance to excite like no other.
thx really good content!
Glad you liked it!
Such an amazing trio of special production Ferrari V8s. Can't go wrong with any of them. I'm halfway to 100K miles on my F430 F1 berlinetta so no shock in me saying F430 for life!
Woah! Love that 👏👏
Great video!! Mega want for all 3!!
You and me both!
“Not quite as engaging as the other 2 cars” woah that’s a huge statement about a 458 speciale
When the competition is legendary, that’s no insult!
Drive them back to back, you will understand why they said that.
@powerslider30477no need, just makes me like scud even more than already do
V8 naturally aspirated….thats a win 🏆.
Such a pity they don’t make them like this anymore 😢😢
They don’t! But at least we have these icons
That drone shot in the intro was awesome!
Isn’t it?!
Thanks for the Xmas content
Happy holidays!
excellent review, I have a manual 360 with the CS exhaust setup and can't agree more on the sound. It's very difficult to take a winner from these three, they all have pros and cons very well described in the video, fully agree!!
Ah nice! I bet that’s quite the thrill 🤩 thanks for watching
Such an incredible trio. Pure emotions and a stunning sound. All an italian dream
Couldn't agree more!
Supercar Driver Channel :* How is the Drone intro gonna Be‼️
Drone Guy: MaaaaaD*🗿🗿💀🔥
Thankyou boys, some great videos this year.
All the best jonty
Our pleasure!
Wow!!! Brilliant video guys, thank you. Out of the 3, the Scuderia 430...but for Yorkshire B roads my silver 'manual' F430 with carbon bucket seats...it is peak analogue Ferrari.
Our pleasure! Good choice
Well done all - excellent!
Which one then Dave 👀🎉
Brilliant video. Top work 👍 Challenge Stradale for me.
Nice one!
Scud ❤ those drone shots!? 🔥
The best! Drone made that film 🍿
great video
Beautifully shot. All are the greats… but yes, The Scud IS the sweet spot!! Can’t wait for part 2!
Chevy guys would love to put their awkward looking C8 z06 in there😂
😬
I think the 360 is better with a manual, but the scud thud is better than a manual 430. Never driven a 458 but it doesn’t do it for me like the other two amazing cars.
Stay tuned for part 2 as we debate this more 👀
this is the true holy trinity, ferrai went downhill after those
They did!
Well that doesnt look like too bad a day at the office......
Look forward to part 2!
It was an epic day! Thanks for watching 👍
Greatness 🔥🔥
insane video , 458 speciale as an investment car.
it has gone AND still going up in value , it’s a collector’s car for sure.
we won’t be surprised to see it reach $800 000 in 15 years. who doesn’t want one of the last V8 from Ferrari 😮
Thanks for watching! Quite possibly but the other two deserve more too

Look at the active aero @9:15
I love my scud and the review hit the nail on the head. Scud and CS more engaging and thrilling to drive than the Speciale when on backroads. Scud the perfect balance of rawness of the CS and civility of the Speciale
It truly is! So underrated

I love the clean lines of the 360. Design wise 2nd only to the 355. They are missing the manual box though.
Another point we discuss more in part 2
'Easily' rectified nowadays. 6 speed conversions abound. I bought mine already done without having to suffer with the F1 box.
ty
458 does absolutely nothing for me, 430 is cool, to me 360 CS is absolutely timeless.
The Strad truly is
Amazing Cars! For me Top of Ferrari
Good choice!
Great video and amazing drone shots, excellent job guys ! Would have loved to see these toys for adults pushed to their limits on a track for just one or two laps ❤
I had the opportunity to drive the CS shortly on a moutain road and that is engraved in my memory: steering is perfect, throttle response insane, balance of the car so good you could gently oversteer in control exiting a corner. I guess its successor would be too efficient in such conditions, requiring to take more risks to enjoy the same...
Scud or Spec for me as they seem like a bigger/substantial step on from the base model where as I recall 'back in the day' the CS (customer cars) been no faster than the base car (in a straight line anyway). CS was prime era of Ferrari optimistic performance stats and enhanced press cars where as Scud and Spec customers got what was advertised.
They are the better car, but are they more fun?
The Challenege Stradale wins
22:33 nice shot
I suppose to like 458, but somehow 430 looks and sounds so much better and even terrible gearbox somehow not terrible on those roads (and you can convert it to manual)
Youve clearly never driven a 430 scud. The F1 Superfast 2 gearbox in a scud is a scintillating experience and adds to the drama, nothing like the old school original F1 box which is awful
