Ferrari 458 Speciale Aperta (2015)

The fastest V8 supercar ever produced by Ferrari the 458 Speciale really needs no introduction, the already spectacular 458 platform benefits from a huge host of benefits including increased power which equates to the most driver focussed Ferrari V8 ever produced. The increased power means the 458's Motor holds a World Record for naturally aspirated output. The 458 Speciale's 605HP equates to 135hp/litre, an astonishing output. Perhaps not surprisingly, the 458 Speciale has won the prestigious "2013 Supercar of the Year" award from Top Gear Magazine and 2014 Evo Magazine "Car of the Year".

Autocar Magazine formed the following conclusion on testing the awe inspiring Speciale: "The mid-engined Ferrari supercar has reached a turning point, it strikes us - and there may never be a better one for purist thrill-seekers than the one you see here. Next year comes a '458M', for want of the official name: a mid-life refresh that'll bring with it a new turbocharged engine. We've recorded what turbos have done to BMW M cars, AMG Mercs, Porsche 911s and more in this modern performance car era - and seldom do we universally approve. Which is why right now may be a definitive moment in the development of the mid-engined Ferrari concept: a zenith in some ways, perhaps. The car to mark it could hardly be more aptly named or purposefully constructed.

Cut from the same cloth as the legendary Challenge Stradale and Scuderia, the Speciale is the last instalment in this hugely collectible line of naturally aspirated V8 thrilling V8 supercars. The 458 Speciale A is a spider variant for the 458 Speciale. The 'A' stands for 'Aperta', which is Italian for 'open' - and it was limited to only 499 examples and sold out immediately to the VIP clients of Ferrari only. Just like the closed-top Speciale, the Aperta has a 4.5 liter naturally aspirated V8 which produces 597 horsepower and 398 pound feet of torque. 0-60 mph takes only 3.0 seconds and it is capable of a top speed of 202 mph. It is the most powerful, street-legal, naturally aspirated V8 Ferrari has ever launched in a spider variant.

This sensational LHD Speciale Aperta was delivered to its first owner in 2015. The car is presented in the most attractive specification of Rosso Corsa with a Nero stellate racing livery. The interior is single colour Alcantara in Nero with Rosso 3D fabric inserts and Rosso stitching. The interior benefits from a parking camera, front and rear parking sensors, electrochromatic mirrors and AFS System.

The exterior benefits from a front suspension lifter, 20" option alloy wheels finished in Gold, anti-stone chipping guard and 'Scuderia Ferrari' wing shields. The car has covered just 650 miles from new and as such is in the condition you would expect. The car is available to view immediately at our showrooms just outside London and UK registered.
