"The Ferrari 458 Spider is the fastest mark ever Convertible, capable of 198 mph."
The Ferrari 458 Spider is the latest created in a long line of exclusive convertible sports car of the legendary Italian manufacturer. It uses the same high-revving 562bhp 4.5-liter V8 engine as the sensational 458 Italia Coupe and races from 0-62mph in just 3.4 seconds, before they reach an incredible top speed of 198 mph. The two-piece aluminum roof folds in just 14 seconds at a panel pushing that rises in front of the engine cover.
Inside the spider has the same Formula One-inspired steering wheel and high-class cabin than the coupe, while the rear window glass is used as a windscreen buffeting to keep to a minimum. The seven-speed double-clutch gearbox shifts in the blink of an eye, while the standard ceramic brakes deliver amazing braking performance.
Outside sees the spider just as stunning as the coupe. The bulges in the tight-fitting roof blend into sharp buttresses, while the 458 down even more glamorous looks with the roof.
