Experienced users’ recommendation:
Higher end units
Autel MaxiSys
Autoenginuity .. must but Ferrari (supercar) package
Make sure you get it from launch or a distributor of lanuch, the pro mini is probably the best value.
Less capable …
Autel ap200 ..this is a great one car choice for around 60 ..no activation or coding .. has reset functions and some maintenance functions
Foxwell NT530

Conclusion:
Price & capabilities: Autel maxisys > X431 launch pro mini> Foxwell nt530 ($189)> Autel ap200 ($60)
For only Ferrari F430, you are highly recommended Foxwell nt530 scanner, which is cheap and performs trouble code reading, active and reset functions.
