Every once in a while, something comes along that reminds you how underachieved you are. It reminds you what you can have if you work harder, got lucky or just got a rich dad or girlfriend. This is the sort of thing that makes you wish you were an instant billionaire (cause millionaire is just not rich enough), the Ferrari F430 ‘Tu Nero’, built by specialist Ferrari tuner, Novitec.

What do you want me to say about this car? Its gorgeous? You already know that. It’s fast, you’re already assuming that. It’s better than a normal Ferrari or even a Scuderia? Please, do we even have to go there? What does ‘Tu Nero’ mean? Sorry dude, you’re on your own.

I’ll tell you what my job says I should do, that is to educate you on the technicalities. It was presented at the IAA, which started a few weeks ago. It’s coated in plain black and hey, what do you know? It actually is based on the brand new Ferrari F430 Scuderia. Must be it’s darker twin. Evil even.
The evil twin produces 707bhp at 8350 rpm and that combined with 712 Nm of torque, catapults the car from 0-100 in 3.5 seconds. To make all that happen, its creator, Novitec, had to add two turbo’s to the original F430 engine which ultimately created the additional 217bhp. What do you get when you combine madness with technological genious? Bye-bye Enzo, Carrera GT, Zonda. Hello Mclaren, Hello Bugatti. I’m right up your a*s.
I came up with some conclusions about this car: a) It looks so mean, I’m terrified. b) A Enzo owner won’t race me c) I can get Jessica Alba in this car d) I’m too broke. So there.
