History & character

The 458 Italia, styled by Pininfarina and launched in 2009, has gone down in history as the last naturally aspirated V8 Ferrari — before the switch to turbocharging with the 488. Its 4.5-litre direct-injection unit screams to 9,000 rpm and delivers 570 hp without the slightest forced induction, a character already keenly sought after by collectors.

The Spider, unveiled in 2011, broke new ground with the first retractable hard top in aluminium fitted to a mid-engined berlinetta — 14 seconds to open up, 25 kg lighter than a conventional soft top. A 7-speed F1 dual-clutch gearbox, 0-100 km/h in 3.4 seconds, a top speed of 320 km/h: a future classic, delivered new in Switzerland and maintained exclusively by Ferrari.
