458 [2009-2015] [Official] Ferrari 458 Speciale

[Sunny]

Stunning... makes the 488 look even more uncouth (it should have looked like this).

Quite impressive looking indeed, but I feel somewhat indifferent to all these one-off's, and this one is no exception, sadly (though it does look gorgeous, no denying that)

That's one great looking Ferrari, for me the best design of recent yeasr (LaFerrari excluded). This is much better than the 488 !

Wow simply amazing, love those front splitters and the rear looks just as sexy, what a stunning car.

Ferrari 458 MM Speciale

Ferrari has unveiled its latest One-Off creation during the car's first shakedown on the Fiorano circuit in the hands of Ferrari's chief test driver Dario Benuzzi and the car's enthusiastic British owner.

Designed in-house by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the Ferrari 458 MM Speciale was built on the chassis and running gear of the 458 Speciale. Stylistically, the client was looking for extremely sporty lines and specified a 'visor' effect for the glasshouse: a black-painted A-pillar, very much in the style of the 1984 Ferrari GTO, helps provide a wraparound solution between the windscreen and side windows which thus meld into single, seamless glass surface. This solution simultaneously lowers the roofline and lends an aerodynamic sleekness to the full volume of the swept-back C-pillar.

Finished in Bianco Italia and complete with a livery that pays homage to the Italian flag, this unique coupé features all-new bodywork, handcrafted in aluminium with composite carbon-fibre bumpers front and rear. The Ferrari 458 MM Speciale also boasts a new side air scoop, one of the most distinctive elements in an extensive revision of the aerodynamic package.

The radically modified aerodynamic solutions are already evident on the front of the car, where the bodywork hugs the coolant radiators which are more steeply inclined and mounted closer together than on the 458 Speciale. The side intakes were devised to allow direct additional cooling of the engine bay to compensate for the different rake of the rear. The tail features a spoiler which balances the downforce evenly and also completes the theoretical beltline that sweeps back along the side from the front wheelarch, giving the car a powerful and athletic stance.

The Ferrari 458 MM Speciale sits on specific wheels exclusive to this very unique car, and an additional touch is the adoption of modified front and rear light clusters. Inside the cockpit upgrades include to an enhanced audio system and trim definition to match the owner's specific wishes. The Cioccolato leather upholstery with white stitching is elegantly accented by a slew of neat touches such as the satin white rings around the tunnel controls.

I wonder what this dealership is thinking (or smoking). Both are over twice the price of other Speciales on the market.

It's a gorgeous spec. 10 or so years ago it used to be a blasphemous to buy a Ferrari in any colour other than red. I find it very refreshing that 458 Speciale and F12 TDF overs have had an absolute choosing unorthodox combination of body colour and primary + secondary stripe colours.

Respect Mr. JWW.
This is his second Speciale.

The orginal 458 has a catfish front. Not sure if it has aged well.

Speciale and now the Pista are not only better in performance, but design wise also above the standard versions.

Agree about the original 458 front. The after market has some fixes (prior design front bumper is out of this world). With time and patience (5 years maybe lol) one day I’ll be able to get a gently used 458 speciale. If not I’ll still be on this forum !
