I have the red 488 GTB featured in the first photo as well, along with a 488 Pista on the way.

The reason I picked this one up, is due to the fact that it's the last NA V8 ever built, soon it'll become a collectors item.

I gave up on the notion of owning a Ferrari when they eliminated stick shifts...something about rowing gears through that beautiful polished gate. Hate them for that...the lower clock times be damned. Lamborghini can stick it in the rear as well...

You can still get a 360, F430 or a Gallardo in a 6mt. Gotta pay that premium though

Red Bread · 10-17-2018, 11:29 AM

Pretty car, impressive mileage. Prefer the sound and design to the 488 too.

Poiseuille · 10-17-2018, 12:29 PM

if I could pick one mid-engine Ferrari it would be the 458, no question at all. See the close-up below of one of OP's pictures.
few years ago I watched the ALMS 458's at LRP and again at Baltimore: loudest things i've heard since 3 liter F1 days. no turbos, no electric motors, just hairy-legged-Italian engineering. We're going to miss machines like that when they're gone.

I gave up the notion of owning a Ferrari when I looked at my bank account.
