http://westofthefive.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/resizer.jpeg

The F430’s 90-degree V8 motor does not share any parts with the similarly configured 3,586cc 360 Modena engine. The F360 had 400bhp at 8,500rpm and 275.6lb-ft of torque at 4,750rpm, but these numbers are overshadowed by the 490bhp at 8,500rpm and 343lb-ft of torque at 5,250rpm produced by the new 4,305cc engine. Specific output is 114bhp/litre. Top speed of the 1,450Kg aluminium-bodied Berlinetta is 196mph with 0-62mph in 4.0 seconds.

The latest incarnation of the F1 clutchless paddle shift transmission made by Magneti Marelli is also significantly superior to the previous generation unit. Faster and smoother, it makes lightning quick upshifts under full throttle. There is no getting away from the kick in the back under such hard shifts, but when you are driving normally, so long as you feather the throttle during an upshift, as you would in a manual car, upshifts can be made seamless.

Completely revised suspension with adaptive damping and Ferrari’s brilliant E-Diff electronic differential help the new car deploy its power safely. With torque significantly up from the F360, acceleration out of the bends is noticeably improved and the E-Diff’s ability to perfectly apportion the power to the tarmac is felt in the way the car maintains its balance.

Despite the challenging bumpy roads and sometimes off-cambered corners of our hilly Tuscany test route, the F430 was never wrong-footed. In situations where we know the F360 could be skittish, the F430 remained secure and balanced.

The steering and chassis relationship of all Ferraris is a very direct one. But where the F360 can feel nervous and edgy at times, the F430’s steering/chassis relationship is much more linear and gives you confidence. You quickly feel at one with this car, and although you can and indeed should never relax completely in such an involving machine, its user friendliness soon puts you at ease.

The power steering is well nigh perfect, striking that elusive balance between describing the road surface, while insulating your fingers from kickback caused by surface imperfections. The ride is also surprisingly good for a mid-engined supercar, taut but well able to soak up small and large bumps with perfect bounce and rebound control.

Our test car was fitted with the optional ceramic brakes and their stopping power is beyond criticism. Importantly pedal feel is excellent and they work well from cold at town speeds too.

The sound of the flat-plane crank V8 is incredible. We never felt comfortable with the high-pitched scream of the F360’s motor; there is simply too much high frequency action going on for comfort over distance. With more bass in its soundtrack, the F430’s aural signature strikes a nice balance between the F360 and the F355. It is easier to live with and far more appealing.

On top of all that engaging stuff built into the chassis and engine, the F430 has another trick up its sleeve, courtesy of electronic wizardry. If you have ever seen the steering wheel of a Formula One car, you will have noticed the half dozen buttons and switches on it that control functions from the pit lane speed limiter to the brake balance.

Some may think that moving the Start button to the steering wheel is pretentious, but it is better off there than on the centre console where it usually appears on cars with more luxurious intent.

However, no tifosi is going to moan about the ‘manettino’ switch (as it is called by the Ferrari racing team) that alters the gearshift, engine e-gas electronic throttle response and traction control protocols from the ICE setting for snow. through low grip road surfaces like gravel, to the normal Sport position to the faster and more aggressive Race setting. The final setting disengages all electronic traction and stability aids apart from ABS entirely for the track.

The system works brilliantly in the real world, tailoring the cars responses to your mood and road conditions. So when this fantastic motor reaches its crescendo between 7,000 and 8,500rpm, and upshifts nearly as quickly as an F1 car, there is no getting away from the fact that this is a red-blooded, race-bred Ferrari. Bellissimo!

Cadillac Presidential Limousine - USS Obama: Left Full Rudder

President Obama to Christen New Car at Jan. 20 Inaugural Parade
An American Tradition Continues: New Presidential Era Begins With a New Cadillacclip_image001 Presidential Limousine
WASHINGTON – As Americans celebrate the inauguration of a new president of the United States next week, another new Cadillac will grace Pennsylvania Avenue to lead the proceedings. President Barack Obama will ride in an all-new Cadillac Presidential Limousine, continuing a long tradition of Cadillac limousines that have served many U.S. presidents.

clip_image002

“Cadillac is honored to again provide a new Presidential Limousine,” said Mark McNabb, North America vice president, Cadillac/Premium Channel. “This is a great American tradition that we’re delighted to renew with an all-new car featuring the best of Cadillac’s dramatic design and technology.”

The image of an American president greeting crowds from a Cadillac limousine dates to President Woodrow Wilson and the early days of the automobile, and continues into a historic new era. The latest Cadillac Presidential Limousine is a completely new design, succeeding the DTS Presidential Limousine that debuted in 2004. The new car incorporates many of the dramatic design and technology features of new and highly acclaimed Cadillac vehicles in a purpose-built format tailored to specific and exacting specifications befitting presidential transport.

Inside and out, the Cadillac Presidential Limousine includes many of the brand’s signature design elements. Assertive, modern and elegant, the front of the car includes the intricate, dual-textured grille made famous by Cadillac’s most popular current models, the CTS sport sedanclip_image001[4] and Escalade. Vertical design elements, such as the car’s front and rear lighting, mirror those used on production models.

For largely functional reasons, such as optimal outward visibility, the car is slightly more upright than its predecessor. However, this new Cadillac Presidential Limousine occupies roughly the same overall footprint on the road as the previous model, with a similar size and proportion.

clip_image001

The side and rear profiles of the new Presidential Limousine are classic, elegant forms, evocative of Cadillac’s STS and DTS luxuryclip_image001[6] sedans. Inside the cabin, the car includes the finest examples of Cadillac’s recent renaissance in design, technology and craftsmanship. The cabin blends modern design and technology with old-world craftsmanship. Major aspects of the cabin are cut and sewn by hand, the same process used in popular Cadillac models such as the CTS sport sedan.

Naturally, many purpose-built aspects of the car are specially designed and prepared for presidential use. The rear passenger area includes an extensive executive compartment with ample seating space, outward visibility and useful mobile office features.

The car was designed, developed and tested by specialists who adhered to an extensive set of specifications. It was subjected to an extreme testing regimen to ensure performance that achieves precise functional requirements. In doing so, security provisions were undertaken at all times during development to ensure the car’s functional capabilities are preserved and confidential.

An embroidered presidential seal is positioned in the center of the rear seat back panel, as well as on each rear door trim panel. Presidential seals are also affixed to the exterior rear doors. The U.S. flag is placed on the right front fender, and the presidential standard is located on the left front fender when the president travels in the vehicle. High-tech LED spotlights illuminate the flags at night.

History – Cadillac and the U.S. Presidency
Cadillac has built limousines and special vehicles for U.S. presidents, diplomats, ambassadors and foreign dignitaries since the early 20th century, an iconic aspect of the brand that continues today.

Cadillac’s central role began during World War I, when many Cadillac engines and cars were transferred to military and government service because of their superior durability and power. One of the first chief executives to use a Cadillac was President Wilson, who rode through the streets of Boston during a World War I victory parade in 1919. A lavish 1928 Cadillac town car was used in the Calvin Coolidge administration.

In 1938, two Cadillac convertibles, dubbed the "Queen Mary" and "Queen Elizabeth," were delivered to the U.S. government. Named after the great ocean liners of the time, the vehicles were 21.5 feet long, weighed 7,660 pounds and were equipped with a full ammunition arsenal, two-way radios and heavy-duty generators. Durable and reliable, the two "Queens" served Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower.

President Eisenhower, known as a car buff, rode in one of the first Cadillac Eldorado models ever produced during his 1953 inaugural parade. The Eldorado represented a high point in automobile design history, as it had the first wraparound windshield, a feature quickly adopted on other new production models.

In 1956, the Queen Mary II and Queen Elizabeth II convertibles replaced the original series. The vehicles were slightly smaller, but like their predecessors, were fully armored and featured state-of-the art communications. Moreover, the vehicles were fitted with narrow rims inside the tire in case the tires were shot out. The Queen Mary II and Queen Elizabeth II served not only President Eisenhower, but also Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Both vehicles were retired in 1968.

The Ronald W. Reagan administration was delivered a 1983 Cadillac Fleetwood limousine and a Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham – Presidential Series was delivered to the William J. Clinton administration in 1993. Unlike previous models that typically were Cadillac cars adapted and modified by independent limousine companies, the 1993 Presidential Brougham was designed, developed and manufactured totally within General Motors and Cadillac. This included an extensive set of security measures to maintain confidentiality, a process that continues today.
Currently, the 1983 Cadillac Fleetwood limousine resides at the Ronald W. Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, Calif., while the 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham is at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Ark.
Cadillac has produced two presidential limousines this decade that remain in service. The first was a Deville Presidential model delivered to President George W. Bush in 2001. In 2004, President Bush debuted a new DTS Presidential model. It was the first application of a new design that launched later that year for the production DTS full-size sedan.
