    looking at that engine pic, reminds me of what I was doing last night, brushing out the indents in the headers, lovely little nests for dust & Dirt

    Nice jewel rear light

    Great shots. The coupe is so much better looking than the spider with the top up, it just is.

    I like it. Somewhere there is a thread where someone redid the old 308GTB ad which showed the progression from the form of the car to a wine bottle to the form of a beautiful woman lying on her side. He photoshopped it with a 458. It said it all.

    I would never drive a spider with the top up unless the weather made it totally impracticable.

    Moot point for me. The top would usually only be up when I park her in iffy places. :cool:

    I really want to hate that, but for some reason I think it looks kinda cool.

    I finally saw a 458 in person while on the way to test drive a 308 no less. Those curves are much better in 3D than 2D.

    I remember the first time I saw the 458. There was no doubt that this was one of the most beautiful sports cars ever designed. You know it instantly -- no hesitation. It all goes together and looks right.

    I was willing to live without it until I drove one a year later. That did it.

    Nice 458! What is the color of the 458? Looks like Grigio Silverstone?

    Very cool , but looks like photoshop. Doesn't even look like a driver in the car and too much light reflecting on bottom of car. Could be real, but looks very off somehow.

    Driver is on the right (left side on this photo) wearing a green helmet. Not fake.

    I might be real. This reminds me of a similar picture but with a Lamboghini Gallardo Verde Ithaca color.

    If I had to bet, I would say it's real. The left rear looks like the suspension is fully extended, as it would be if that corner was airborne for enough time, while the right rear does not yet look fully extended.
