Ferrari recenlty released a new model, the 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia. This car is a newer version of the Ferrari F430. The numbers come from the engine displacement which is 4.8 liters and the 8 cylinder engine. They added the Italia because the makers felt it truly represented Ferrari's homeland, Italy. With the new V8 engine and the 4.8 liter injection, this car maxes out at 570 hp with 9000 revolutions per minute. Like other Ferraris, the 458 Italia has fast acceleration and goes 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. The top speed so far has been 202 mph. The car looks very similar to the F430 but is far superior. The manufacturers aimed to improve evrything about the F430 to make 458 Italia as fast as possible. This new Ferrari competes with the new Audi R8, Aston Martin DBS, the Corvette ZR1, the Nissan GT-R, and the Lamborghini Gallardo. If you recognize these cars you know that this is no idle threat. These cars area top of the line speed machines and are built to be superior to every other car. While car companies have to worry about competing with their rivals we can sit back and enjoy the results. Thank Ferrari and other car companies for making cars like these.
