Ferrari is showing off the 562 horsepower car with improvements to fuel consumption and CO2 emissions that, they say, sets "the benchmark in this segment."

Using a mid-rear mounted 4.5-liter V8 engine, the 458 goes from 0-100 km/h in under 3.4 seconds on its way to a top speed of 325 km/h. The driver controls the engine with the Getrag F1 transmission, a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. It has a 407 hp to tonne power-to-weight ratio, with a dry weight of about 1380 kg. :eek:

Uh, IT IS mid-engine rear-drive. Don't confuse this with the California. Didn't you see the engine shot? It was looking back at the other car, and you can see the engine cover.

Lovely PoV cam, though.

[BMW135i]

[Hehe]

At the end of the video, it looked very GT5ish... :D

God... gotta dig up my GT5P to play... this was pure sex..

I think he does... (it says in his profile) but he may be another hyde unless he does the photo of RS + ferrari!

[CanadaGoose]

Smaller, lighter, faster....

Maybe this will finally reverse the trend of all these fat ass, high hp, slow pos cars being produced lately

[danizer]

i cant believe those slits on the edge of the headlights are very good for aerodynamics o.o"..

makes it look like a dinosaur...still not impressed =/ sorry

[Harvey Specter]

This car is growing on me but it might be game over for Ferrari when the LP560 replacement comes out.

[BEEB]

^ when would you stop mentioning those 5 letters L-P-5-6-0? whenever I search for lambo here, I see you commenting on how nice and how many LP560 you saw on the street !! If you like it so much, just go buy one and enjoy !

[Jeffield]

haha, you got to understand how beautiful the car is... the LP560 is STUNNING and wont be replaced for a very long time

[tegz]

no "GTR killer!!" comments yet?..

[van_driver]

...the 458 goes from 0-100 km/h in under 3.4 seconds...

GTR can beat that...

Ferrari....

[TRDood]

it looks like it can't make up it's mind of being a ferrari or lambo.

the F430 is still my favourite. 599 is good too!
