Ferrari 458

The Ferrari 458 is considered one of the most iconic modern Ferraris. Introduced in 2009, the 458 Italia inaugurates a naturally-aspirated, direct-injection V8, combined with a dual-clutch gearbox and an extremely sharp chassis. It also marked a major stylistic and technological turning point for Ferrari. Subsequently available as the 458 Spider, 458 Speciale and 458 Speciale A, the 458 represents the apogee of Ferrari's naturally-aspirated V8 with rear mid-engine, before the definitive switch to turbocharging with the 488 GTB.
