Ferrari 458 One-Off Honors Niki Lauda

Ferrari has unveiled a one-off 458 Italia inspired by the Formula 1 race car driven by Niki Lauda in the 1970s.

The Ferrari 458 Italia Niki Lauda was commissioned by an unnamed collector and built by Ferrari’s Tailor Made division. It features a two-tone red and white exterior while the gold wheels are a luxurious touch to the exotic. Running down the center of the roof is a decal of the Italian flag, giving it a race-inspired look.

On the inside, subtle enhancements have been made to ensure this isn’t your ordinary 458 Italia. Red stitching can be found on the dash while the colors of the Italian flag adorn both bucket seats and the center console. The 4.5-liter V8 powerplant has been left untouched, meaning 562 hp and 398 lb-ft of torque is accessible to the lucky owner. Ferrari did not announce how much the custom 458 Italia cost.
