Track Battle: Ferrari 458 Speciale vs. Ferrari 488 GTB

Tachometer Blog | Track battle: Ferrari 458 Speciale v Ferrari 488 GTB

Ferrari 488 GTB is the model which replaced the elder 458. Both models have V8 engine, but new 488 has turbo engine, when 458 has still naturally aspirated engine. How fast is the new 488 compared to 458 Speciale, which is lighter and more track oriented version of 458?


Turbo or no turbo?

Ferrari 488 Spider Review

If new Ferrari 488 is good looking car, 488 Spider looks even better.


Many people have said 488 with turbo engine doesn't sound so good, than 458 naturally aspirated engine. I disagree. I think 488 sounds even better.
