Ferrari 458 Italia Breaks cover

Ferrari has officially unveiled the replacement for my personal favorite Ferrari, the F430. The new car is called the 458 Italia and draws some of its lines from other Ferrari products, namely the Enzo. You can see the family resemblance in the 458's lines.

Thankfully, the car looks better than the Enzo, which was not one of the sexier Ferrari's in my opinion. The car has a 4.5-litre v8 engine claiming the highest power output of any normally aspirated engine. The car hits 127bhp per liter for a total of 562bhp at 9000rpm.

Ferrari claims the car will hit 62mph in under 3.4 seconds with a top speed of over 200 mph. That is blazing fast for sure. The car also has 398lb ft of torque at 6000rpm. The car will go on sale next spring in the UK at £150,000.
