There is finally the extra fast and sharp version of the 458 Italia. He is called not a 458 Monte Carlo, but Ferrari has chosen the rather dull name 458 Special.

Rumours about 620 hp of the laity, unfortunately, not to knock, but 605 hp (135 hp per liter) instead of 570 hp is also not wrong of course. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.0 seconds and in 9,1 seconds sprint, you go from 0 to 200 km/h. According to Ferrari, the 458 Special a lap Fiorano in 1’23”5.

Further, it is the 458 Special equipped with features such as advanced active aerodynamics and Side Slip angle Control (SSC), a system that makes it easier on the limit control of the car to maintain.

Ferrari is also proud of the fact that this is the aerodynamically most efficient production car of the series in Ferrari history (E Index of 1.5). The design comes from the Ferrari Styling Centre in cooperation with Pininfarina.

The empty weight of the 458 Special is 1.290 kg and that makes for a weight-vermogenratio 2.13 kg/hp. Next month at the IAA Frankfurt we can offer this special Ferrari live admire.
