It will be more extreme than F430 and faster in track cause the use of compressor gives 60nm of torque and an output of 450-500hp....the weight will be around 1400kg.Gta is a different story cause with the use of multiair you have less consumption(-15%) and +10% of torque but only a max of 440hp compared to 450-500 hp of ''lightweight'' 8c.....In my opinion the proper choice was the new 4,7 v8-450hp which it will be fitted to Quattroporte facelift(2007) and to the upcoming Maserati Spyder(2006) but with 500hp.....but i am not the one who decides...the new F430 in 2009 will have a V10 engine....The best Ferrari of this decade will be the upcoming 575 successor with the codename 600 imola(V12 with about 600hp....It will be faster than Carrera Gt,Slr despite cost a lot less...this is the car that will haunt our dreams)

This year they wont join WTCC cause 159 will be ready in the midle of the season and Alfa Romeo competes only to win....Also they haven't yet decided if they will enter WTCC or DTM in 2007.....they said that they examine the possibility for entering FIA GT with 8c(Mc12 will continue participating) and in the future their dream is to return to Le mans sth that every alfista pray for....but it will take more years of development.
