    I purchased a 2010 458 Italia that Is CPO from Ferrari with two year warranty and I’ll be taking delivery this weekend. The inspection and everything was perfect and it’s a CPO with a two year warranty so I can’t go wrong. The Ferrari dealer told me it comes with the Ferrari cover, battery tender, and 2 keys. What other items or accessories came with the 458 when it was new that should be included so I can ask for them?

    Thanks and happy to join the Ferrari family. I previously owned an Aston Martin Vantage and a Bentley Continental GT, this will be my first Ferrari.

    A cloth to wipe the smile off your face. Doesn’t work.

    Enjoy: there should also be a few manuals in a leather pouch

    Don't forget when you think of other questions there's ten years of experience already posted here

    I am a year into mine and recently(!) found it has a built in K40. looks like it was pro installed.
    Because of the flying bug risk in this area I also did a full front clearbra which has made making my black car easier to clean; i.e., no swirl mark risk.
    With the many stories of 'short' battery life I also installed a monitor with a phone app.
    A friend and I did our first oil and filter change; found it a slow process courtesy of the bell pan but nothing difficult.
    Enjoy your smile..........................

    Also make sure that the tool kit and tire inflation kit is with it as well.

    Window sticker is fun to have too. Dealer can easily request it.

    Show some pix when you can!

    Thanks guys. Just sent a note to the dealership to confirm it has original manual, tire inflation kit, and tool kit.

    Mine came with a nice Ferrari duffle bag containing a Ferrari logo car cover and seat covers, none of which I’ve ever used. We don’t do winter storage here in FL.

    Depending on where you live you may want to pick up a sun visor for your front dash.

    Is there a Ferrari branded visor you recommend, or just a generic one?

    I was given one from Ferrari of Central FL that sits on the dashboard. I’m sure the dealer has them.

    Would also try to get all the service records they have on the car. Also make sure to have the key code card that comes with the car in case you need to make another key.

    You should make sure it has the screw in tow hook.
