The fix doesn’t have to be so expensive. If you get an F430 without cracked headers, IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE EXHAUST BRACKETS. The center mount is all you need, the additional brackets are actually too tight and what cause stress on the headers, leading them to fail. Should you NEED new headers, get the “top speed” headers. They’re about $1000-$2000 USD. Not bad at all. And it’s a DIY job if you’re handy.

I’ve had an 08 F430 Spider for three years now. It has run flawlessly. I did need engine mounts though. They make a huge difference. Anyone looking at one of these should check them. Not expensive if you do it yourself.

Why is there so much rust?

I thought saggy exhaust means engine mounts need to be redone?

well, the bracket on each side of the muffler section are known to fail on 430, also inspect the headers too. I had to replace the headers because the factory one was leaking slowly, and the heat it produced can damage the wires and pumps over times. Also, when the bracket fails, the vibration can also break the tail light clips.
