    Hi all, I'm new here and coming from a 991 gt3. Im currently looking at a 2011 458 italia with 31k miles, I've never owned a Ferrari and just curious if there are any concerns at this mileage. The car has some extras , fabspeed exhaust , novitech springs and some carbon fiber engine compartment accessories. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

    bought mine with 20K and put another 6K on it in a year.
    its my daily driver and I have a blast with it.
    just think you won't have to worry about putting more miles on it and losing value.

    Wasn’t the only concern with 2010-2011 gearboxes?

    There are multiple 458's now with six figure mileage. They're very well-built, stout cars.

    Mileage is fine as many have said-

    More Important is -

    Solid maintenance history? Maintenance records? Carfax? PPI?

    To correct the record: the Gearbox DCT issues affect ALL model years of the 458 from 2010-2015…even the Speciale.
