Revealed: 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia

I agree, I'm always a fan of Ferrari's 'mainstream' supercar - 360 Modena, F430, and now this 458.

After seeing the pics and reading the article, I'm glad they don't have a sound clip of the 4.5 litre V-8 because I'd need a change of pants.

That said, this morning on my ride into work I seen a Ferrari California on the express-way. Pininfarina shapes the sexiest inanimate objects known to man.
 
They did a nice job of keeping that under wraps, the test mules that have been photographed and rumored as a "450" didn't even have a hint of that level of redesign.

Nicely done though, it's beautiful.

The only angle I'm not crazy about is the rear 3/4 view. The single taillights look a little odd (I'd rather they were paired up like the ones on the F430 or Enzo), and the rear flanks look VERY bulky. The triple tailpipes are a little strange too. Still, I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers . . .

I hope the DCG isn't mandatory (it sounds like it might well be). In any case this thing sounds incredible. I wonder if those are photos or renders?

heavy pixelation on the interior shots makes me think so.
 
The triple exhaust is reminiscent of the exhaust system on the F40, though in the F40?s case the centre exhaust was for the wastegate.

I think the front air dam needs to be a little more aggressive and there needs to be more air scoops on the sides/rear wings ? just my opinion.

Oh, and I prefer the single rear light clusters on each side as opposed to the design on the F430.
 
Happy in my pants? Better believe it!

And you can find audio here, if you think you're going to be able to go through the day without needing to change your boxers.
 
Looks great!!
Is it me or the headlights don't look the same on the front view and the top view??
