Ferrari 458 Italia 2010

Ferrari 458 Italia Style


Overview:
Replacing the F430 as Ferrari’s entry-level screamer, the 458 has a new, direct-injected, 570-hp 4.5-liter V-8 and a sultry bod shaped for better aero. The cockpit layout is heavy on F1 style, and the seven-speed gearbox is paddle-shift only. Competitors? Only real, actual sex.
