Ferrari 488 Pista

Pista??? No we wouldn't want to use GTO, that you just be silly....better use Pista uhhhhh

 

I hope... problably carbon fiber option wheels.. i remember black wheels.. with single ray, non double like Tdf

 

Tried my hardest to tell you but as I said, you can take a horse to water.......

 

In my opinion, with no strispes the car look Much more beautiful than this..

 

don´t like the name. today.
pizza jokes will be incomming.
anyhow.

car will be fine.
and if 320k€ inkl. VAT. what i believe. price is also fine. as long GT2RS is 285k€ inkl. VAT.

 

at least they used the carbon fiber 3 button centre stalk to match the LaFerari, F12 TDF and 458 Speciale.

ok someone tell me so I can convert it to Toronto time.......what is the maranello Italy reveal time......please

 

If the japan site is reliable, I'd say I expected more in terms of downforce etc, so i now believe 488 LE will be the real final extreme version of 488, especially cause someone said they left on the table quite a lot of power from the v8

 

I'm sure it will be much better in the metal, but even this render looks fantastic. Ferrari's in-house design is really getting into a groove. Previously the Portofino, and now this. Exciting times to be a Ferrari fan.

 

I like the name but some of you said it doesnt make sense in Italian? Fwiw in Spanish sounds not bad. Pista means track, race track, circuit. Honestly they're running out of logical names.

Car looks fine as expected, I would do no stripes as they stress the already steep air pass in the hood.

 

488 Pasta?

Looks fantastic! Good job Ferrari.

 

It makes sense also in italian. Also for us is like track or race track.

 

After some time, yeah, I think that in italian, even if not sexy as Scuderia, is quite acceptable

 

Weight translated as 1280 Kg / 90 Kg lighter that the 488 GTB.

 

Not sure what I think of it, everything seems quite generic to me, the huge scoop at the front reminds me of a Ford GT and overall there just appear to be too many air ducks and suchlike.

To my eyes there is some elegance missing here which I concede is probably not the point of a track car/road racer. Perhaps it will look better without the stripe. No question is will be incredibly fast!

 

I thought the GTB was closer to 1450 kgs?

 

ya know I defended LaFerrari's name........even came to terms with "Superfast" considering its historical significance........but the "Pista" Pisses me off. GTO, Daytona, Le Man, F1.........anything would have been better.

 

I can't agree more!!

 

So quick summary of specs are:

730 PS @ 8000 rpm
770 NM @ 3000 rpm
1280 kg (-90kg)
20% more downforce
0-100 km/h 2.85 secs
340 km/h vmax

Inconel exhaust
Lightweight flywheel & crankshaft
Carbon connecting rods
Carbon intake
Carbon 20" rims
Carbon f&r bumpers, rear spoiler and engine cover

SSC 4(?)

and something called "Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer" referring to trick braking system

Estimated £215.000

 

So that's the so-called "dry weight", kerb weight should be just under 1400 kg (while the 488 GTB is at 1475 kg announced).

 

Pista in my ears sounds great!

 

I wonder how much of that carbon is standard, I suspect the wheels wont be..

 

Me too. I'm not getting the dislike - yes, pizza jokes, but so what - because it means track. That's what the car is all about!

 

Is is the 90 kg saving assuming the carbon wheels? That’ll add back loads of weight with regular wheels then...

Inconel exhaust is very trick. And pricey.

Can’t wait to see this thing perform on track!

 

Also seems low - is that excluding VAT?

 

The rear of this car is hot like fire. The side profile has curves like a supermodel. The front is throwing me off a little because of the stripe but when you picture the car without it, I dig it.
