    Those wheels look better than what they hung on the topless 599.
    Replacing a damaged wheel with only thirty sets made could be an issue though...

    This looks like not true at all. Even the photoshop is sloppy.

    They forgot to put the calipers back in. Sloppy indeed.

    Hack-job photoshopping, plus I don't really like the design. I'm a huge fan of the simple 5-spoke 458 wheels. They look ultra-lightweight and really show off the braking hardware. Best wheels on any current exotic, IMHO.

    You're wrong the brakes are called Stopless brakes. :)

    The official option name is "Scuderia naufragio imminente" ;)

    No, he is still getting over the concussion effects of banging around in that Scuderia. More therapy, just floating about in the 458 is all he needs now...

    Hey sorry for starting something that was false. I thought they were just renderings and not meant to be final production shots. Anyway, I liked them myself, too bad its not real.
