Ferrari Enzo successor slated for 2012 - report
458 Spider coming to Frankfurt?
The highly-anticipated Ferrari Enzo successor is set to be launched sometime next year, according to a report by Automotive News.
The publication says the model will be made from carbon fiber and be powered by a new, naturally-aspirated V12 engine. This contradicts previous reports of a twin-turbo V8, but nothing is official as of yet.
Besides the range-topping supercar, AN says the 599 GTB Fiorano will replaced by an all-new model that is being developed under the F152 codename. Our spies have already caught a prototype undergoing testing in Europe and it will reportedly remain rear-wheel drive and feature a 6.3-liter V12 engine from the FF. A debut is scheduled for the Geneva Motor Show and a European launch is planned for the summer of 2012.
If you're more partial to open-air motoring, the 458 Spider is slated to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor in September. Like the coupe, power will be provided by a 4.5-liter V8 engine which develops 570 PS (419 kW / 562 hp) and 540 Nm (398 lb-ft) of torque.
Further down the road, a 458 Scuderia and California facelift are due in 2013 while a 458 Italia facelift is penciled in for 2014.
