It certainly is! IMO it quite simply looks amazing!!










And the specs of the engine sound equally as sexy!
The new V8 displaces 4490cc and develops 562bhp at 9000rpm (up 79bhp on the F430), giving it a specific output of 125bhp per litre. That, Ferrari claims, gives it the highest specific output of any naturally aspirated road car. The 9000rpm red line also eclipses the 8500rpm F430, making the 458 Italia the highest-revving road car in Ferrari history.

Lovely, really like that!

There is something "enzoish" about the side on view from the lhs door forward.
