Designed with considerable input from F1 Champion Michael Schumacher, the 458 Italia Speciale was immediately accepted as the most capable, powerful, beautiful and technologically advanced mid-engined V8 Berlinetta in Ferrari history. Successor to the 16M, the Ferrari 458 Speciale was introduced to the Ferrari lineup in 2014 as a limited-edition, with just 499 examples built.
Thanks to prolific use of carbon fiber and attention to detail in weight savings, the Speciale was armed with a reworked version of the 4.5-liter V8, now with 597hp, reprogrammed 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for quicker shifts, and upgrades to suspension and aerodynamics to propel the car to 60 mph in little more than 3 seconds. The example offered here in Nero with red accents, along with red and white North American Racing Team striping, is striking against the black with red inserts seating and interior. The car is loaded with options, including Alcantara headliner, embroidered prancing horse logos on the seats and additional leather trim.
The exterior options run all the way to the red brake calipers and further carbon-fiber treatments, including the highly desirable engine cover. As the last of the naturally aspirated V8 rear-engine cars in the Ferrari model lineup, this striking example has 923 actual miles on the odometer. From the Steve Todhunter Collection.
