2015 Ferrari 458 Italia

As instruments of pure speed, few cars can touch the 458 Italia and its convertible counterpart, the 458 Spider. 

Powered by a 562-hp V-8 mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and riding on an 

f1-inspired suspension.

The mid-engine 458 is as pure a sports car as anything on the road. 

It looks the part, too, with X-Acto knife styling and an intense, if overwrought, interior.

Need to turn up the exclusivity? You’ll want the 458 Special or the 458 Special A, with 597 hp.
