Pro Tip:
A pre-purchase inspection (PPI) with Ferrari specialist (€1,500+) is mandatory—focus on compression tests and ECU logs.
Fun Fact:
The 458's 9000 RPM redline was inspired by F1 V8 engines—Ferrari's last road car to rev this high!
(This is the last analog Ferrari V8—a future classic that's already rising in value.)
