A 12,000-mile 2006 Ferrari F430 Spider with the gated six-speed manual is for sale on Bring a Trailer, offered at no reserve by a selling dealer in Scottsdale, Arizona, with bidding set to close on October 2. The headline numbers are the low mileage and the no-reserve format, but the real story is the gearbox: the F430 was the last of Ferrari's mid-engine V8s offered with a clutch pedal, and a well-kept, open-top, three-pedal example is precisely the spec collectors of this era go looking for.This Spider is finished in Rosso Corsa (322) over Nero leather, with a Nero soft top, 19-inch Challenge wheels, and carbon-fiber interior trim, a classic and highly liquid color combination for a modern Ferrari. It began life as a Canadian-market car, spent its registered life in British Columbia and Alberta, and was imported into the U.S. earlier this year. The Bring a Trailer listing notes a clean Carfax report and a clean Arizona title.Viewed from the front, the Pininfarina-penned body looks as tight and purposeful as it did when new, with xenon headlights framing the enlarged oval intakes that echoed Ferrari's Formula 1 cars of the period. The photo gallery for this F430 Spider is extensive, and the red paint presents with the kind of consistency buyers expect from a car that has covered so few miles in two decades.Around back, quad exhaust tips flank the rear diffuser beneath the signature round taillights, and the power-retractable Nero top stows neatly behind the cabin. The Spider body is the more emotional choice over the coupe, and with the top down the F136 V8 is right behind the occupants' heads, which is much of the appeal. Full details on the top and bodywork are in the auction listing.The 19-inch Challenge alloy wheels wear Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires carrying 2025 and 2026 date codes, so the next owner will not be budgeting for rubber right away. Black-finished calipers sit over cross-drilled and ventilated rotors, and according to the seller's description, the suspension bushings and brake components were replaced in June 2024, with a brake fluid flush completed in September 2026.Beneath the Prancing Horse center caps is some meaningful engineering history. The F430 introduced Ferrari's electronically controlled limited-slip differential, the E-Diff, to its road cars, along with the steering-wheel manettino, technology carried over from the company's Formula 1 program and refined in every mid-engine Ferrari since. This F430 Spider on Bring a Trailer pairs that differential with the manual transaxle.The cockpit is trimmed in Nero leather across the bucket seats, center console, door panels, and carpeting, set off by carbon-fiber accents and drilled aluminum pedals. Automatic climate control, power windows and locks, and a CD stereo round out the equipment, and the interior photos in the listing show a cabin that matches the car's low mileage.Ahead of the driver, the red-dial central tachometer sweeps to an 8,500-rpm redline next to a 220-mph speedometer and gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer shows 12k miles, and the Carfax snapshot included in the listing lists 11,559 as the last reported reading, along with seven service history records.Power comes from the mid-mounted 4.3-liter F136 V8, a dry-sump, Bosch Motronic-managed engine rated at 483 horsepower and 343 lb-ft of torque when new. The car received a major service in April 2022 covering the valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, air filters, and fluids, and the oil was changed in September 2026. Buyers can review the maintenance history via the Bring a Trailer auction page.Then there is the shifter. The six-speed manual transaxle is worked through Ferrari's polished open gate, a detail that has become collector shorthand for the analog era, and manual cars represent only a small share of F430 production next to the F1 automated-manual versions. The seller notes the transaxle was disassembled, repaired, and resealed in February 2022, a point worth studying in the records available through the listing.With the Nero soft top raised, the F430 Spider keeps its clean profile. The sale includes a reproduction window sticker, owner's manuals, service records, and a battery tender, useful documentation for a car that will be judged on originality and upkeep. Prospective bidders can request additional information and photos through the Bring a Trailer listing.Taken as a whole, this is a strong example of the F430 buyers want most: a Spider, in Rosso Corsa, with a manual gearbox, low miles, and recent service. Bidding stood at $275,000 as of September 28, and because it is offered at no reserve, it will sell to the high bidder when the auction ends on October 2.Get the free Collector Car Market Brief: auction results, price moves and what's crossing the block, in your inbox every weekday morning.
