Buying a Ferrari 458 says something about you. Thankfully, it’s up to the owner to fill in that blank. Like other products in the prancing pony brand’s past, building a world-class exotic car isn’t enough. In recent years, the 360 birthed its Challange Stradale model. Then there was the 430 Scuderia. Now, buyers can look forward to the 458 Speciale.
Its award-winning 4.5-liter V8 is tweaked to make 605 hp and a series of enhancements including specially-designed tires, aerodynamic upgrades and an improved traction control system all allow the car to spend more time at the limit… If you have the cojones to take it there.
U.S. deliveries begin in the spring of 2014 and pricing starts at $233,509.
