A replacement of the F430 super car the all new 458 Italia has a new 4.5-litre V8 engine with 562bhp on tap (at 9000rpm) and 398lb ft of torque. Electronics have become even more advanced with an improved version of the electronic limited-slip differential and Formula One-Trac system, previously in the both the F430 and the Scuderia. The lines on this car are gorgeous, because Ferrari shied away from the previous McLaren-like large circular intake gaps. The front head lights have been redesigned as narrow slits in the bonnet and near head lights are only one circular red light on each side, similar to the California and 599 GTB. A new exhaust system is an in-line three pipe to allow for an aerodynamically improved rear diffuser. This is the first baby Ferrari to top 200mph, with 0-62mph taking 3.4sec. It’s expected to be priced around $220,000, putting it head first into a battle with the McLaren MP4-12C and Mercedes SLS AMG.
