    NY Times Review

    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/22/automobiles/autoreviews/22ferrari-italia.html?_r=1

    It's funny how everyone is bashing the F430 looks. I know the Italia looks better but i still love the F430.

    I know how much a fully kitted Akra costs for motorcycles. I shudder to think what they charge for a Ferrari.

    I also think they new wheels look good. Not as busy as the standard wheels and not as plain as the forged wheels. Smiley

    From the picture I'd say this is Giallo Modena.

    It's Giallo Tri Strato and was taken at the dealer I used to use. Got to say I don't like these wheels at all.

    It's just the lighting in the showroom that makes it look like regular Giallo.

    Koko,

    I've not had any more info on the spider.

    Ferrari 458 Spider...

    Ferrari 458 Spider: This is it...

    "Like clockwork, the boys in Maranello are releasing the Ferrari 458 Spider in time for a Frankfurt Auto Show debut later this year. And like clockwork, someone's leaked what they say are photos of the well-sculpted red convertible early.

    The pictures, if they're real, show a similar look to the Ferrari 458 with the notable absence of a roof and, in its place, a unique dual-pod cockpit that appears to conceal some form of retractable hard-top configuration we can't see in these photos..."

    "Ferrari 458 Spider" -- Chris Harris On Cars


    Yes, you read that headline right - Chris has been driving a Ferrari...

    Someone lent me the car. That's all I'm going to say.
     
    And, at the end of the day, it's my job to drive stuff and make films, so in much the same way I wouldn't ask Mila Kunis who she'd spent the previous night with, I don't really care where the cars come from. In this case I think the car in question belongs to Ferrari. The company which doesn't necessarily want me driving its cars.
     
    Driven like it but not *actually* stolen, promise...
     
    But this needs to be about the 458 Spider, nothing else.
     
    It's a bit of a triumph this car. On paper it's heavier and less rigid than an Italia, but you wouldn't know it from the way it drives.
     
    I'm about a year late with this stuff, for obvious reasons, so it seemed that the only thing left to do with the Spider was to drive it like I'd stolen it. After all, that's the only way you really discover if a car has balance. Watching the first edit, it struck me that I happened to look like I'd stolen it too, which sort of adds to the theft theme.
     
    I still cannot believe it is possible to drive a mid-engined Ferrari in this manner. If, in 1990, you'd tried it in a 348, you would have either experienced a life-changing pirouette or death. Or both. On a trailing throttle you can play with the angles in this car and it's just so controllable.
     
    Bottom line: the 458 Spider is quite the tool...
     
    I still don't much like the way Ferrari deals with us, the great unwashed, but I will never let that stand in the way of saying their cars are excellent when they are excellent.
    The 458 Spider is one of those cars.
     
    Enjoy the vid...
     

    "Don't ask how I came to be driving it. I'm a year late to this review, so most people already know what they need to know. But do they know what the Spider is like if you drive it like a mentalist? They will now..." -- Chris Harris
