I’m surprised to see another evolution of the 458’s chassis instead of an all new replacement. Ferrari usually gets two models out of a chassis, with the second receiving a new engine (360-F430, California-Cali T, FF-GTC4, F12-812, etc).

I think this is the first time Ferrari has done a third iteration on the same chassis.

I know this is a Ferrari and I should be excited, but this gets a solid meh from me. Just doesn’t speak to me the way a McLaren or other brands do. I will say the styling is a lot better than the regular 488, imo.

I’m glad they’re moving back to quad tail lights. Every model since the 458, with just the two in the far corners looked really awkward from the back.

This is not the greatest car in the world, it’s just a tribute.

It just took  them three tries to finally get the styling right.

yeah - maybe concerned about the success of the Huracan and wanted a quicker 2nd punch in the market.  More of a 488 mid cycle refresh.  I do like the styling a bit better than the 488...
