Hey All so i've been looking at getting my first Ferrari in the next year or so. I've posted something similar in the 458/488/F8 section and...
Ive driven a few mid-engine Ferrari's (except the 458 which is the one i want), but havnt driven any front engine Ferrari's yet with the exception...
I hate how expensive the US is. I was quoted 3000$ for the year for the 458 by my insurance company.
I know this will differ largely based on location, but what has insurance costs looked like for you? I'm deciding between the 458 and the Porto,...
oooh i'm really happy you started this thread. I've recently been looking at Portofino's as a backup option when i'm finally ready to buy and...
Very helpful thank you. I have considered taking a HELOC and doing what you suggested, when i was buying a GT4, i had considered this option. I...
This is great advice honestly. I think thats a bit where my head is at. I'm looking a higher mileage one knowing i'm closer to the floor....
It does sound like the 458 is in no fear of heavy depreciation even within the next 5 years. Unlike something like a McLaren 570S. I keep seeing...
So you are of the camp that the 458 will retain its value or go up?
Haha i mean honestly this is probably the correct answer. I honestly wouldnt mind even taking a small hit of 10-15k at the end to be honest....

So as some of you know i am looking to jump into a 458 in the next year or so. The reason i've chosen this car is due to a few factors. I think...
thanks. I think i've largely decided on my must haves being LED steering wheel, Carbon racing seats, red or black exterior. Unfortunetly while...
ah yeah that was a small concern of mine about how the trim wears from small dings and scratches. This makes me want to make sure i have the...
I think funny enough this is actually where the car shows its age a bit in the LED wheel. The more modern wheels definetly look more futuristic,...
one of the solutions i saw is battery powers and wireless and mounts to your license plate so no installation needed. It's then wirelessly...
I agree for the most part. had a GT4 and never felt the need for nose lift. Figured it would just be a nice to have option on the 458. Backup...
For me the folding mirrors, and lift are nice to haves. The backup camera i want more for an ease of parking issue and so i dont run over some...
Yeah definetly want the scuderia shields. Every example i've seen has had them so i thought they were a standard option but seems like everyone...
oh totally didnt even think about front lift. I'll have to add that to the list. For the exhaust valve controller is that an aftermarket option...
