Great car 458 Italia, and Challenge or Scuderia version will has probably the same power as Italia but less weight, or maybe this is a GT2 racing prototype for racing use only. Anyway I'm waiting for Spider, it will be less stiff and slower but I hope it will looks gorgeous and Ferrari won't give it a metal roof, but classic soft top.

Just watched this car on the last Top Gear episode. This car is simply amazing and I feel bad for all the F430 owners. It really is a huge step forward.

I agree,technologically it is a huge step forward compared to the 430.However,in terms of physical appearance,a 430 owner would be reluctant to move up to this hideous model.I would rather own a 911 Turbo S than a 458.

you know, accousticjama, remember when you where young and you went to a party and all the guys would say how hot heidi clum is or how effen hot this or that supermodel is and the one guy in the corner sat up and said, nah he would rather take his below average looking buck toothed gf because he found her wayyy hotter.. you are that person :)

I'm sorry but as good as the 458 is. I prefercthe f430 scuderia. I like the body style of the 458, just what puts me off is the headlights and centre exhaust. Plus even jeremy said in the to gear vid, about all the buttons on the steering wheel and how confusing it is. That's a little messed up for me.

if anything the 430 has a stupid grin on its face where the 458 with the wider sitting slit eyes seems alot more aggressive. and the centre mounted tri exhaust is awesome... see F40. one of the all time greats, and now we see it again on one of the future classics.

When I first saw the 458 it had me throwing questions about the design. Now it just seems like everything is just right.
