    If that picture is anywhere close to the final version then I will not order one. I was hoping it would have a hard top like the California. This reminds me of something VW would come out with.

    So what were you expecting? It's a 458 without the roof...

    I think he was expecting the C-Pillar removed (like on the California) with either fixed roll bars behind the seat or a pop up system. This photo looks a little too much like a Targa Porsche.

    Why? It's only someone's Photoshop lash up.

    Is it certain to be a hard top and not a soft?

    This looks like a 458 Superamerica. Ugly. Nice PS job though.

    I wish they'd do a Targa like the 308/355 GTS.

    how can it be a removable hard top if the engine is in the back? it makes no sense. let's face it. the 458 performance wise is a monster but the car is pretty damn ugly at least from the pictures.

    That's NOT the spider. The title of the image says 458 "GTS". I'm certain the "real" spider version will not have that nasty B pillar.

    I doubt they'll remove the roll hoops.
