Ferrari 458 Italia Spider Specs

The engineers in Maranello relied on their extensive F1 and track experience to completely redesign the 458 Italia human machine interface, providing a truly ergonomic, driver-oriented cockpit with the aim to have a machine becoming the natural extension of the driver's body and hands. In the Ferrari 458 Italia all the vehicle main controls are now clustered directly on the steering wheel, while secondary functions are set in two satellite pods on either side of the dash. The panel ahead of the driver includes comprehensive instrument display screens which enable the driver to fully concentrate on driving and thus representing another important safety component.


The elimination of the steering column mounted stalks and the clustering of the main controls on the steering wheel allow the driver to make all the adjustments or gearshifts with his/her hands firmly on the rim. This is yet another example of a track-derived feature boasted by the 458 Italia which ensures the car to achieve maximum performances under all driving conditions. The F1 gear-shift paddles are now more functional and ergonomic as they increase in size and are also independent from steering wheel activities, making them easier and more comfortable to use.
Entirely in aluminum, the 458 Italia Spider hard-top implies several advantages over the traditional folding soft-top, such as a 25kg weight reduction and a deployment time of just 14 seconds. Fully integrated into the styling of the car, the hard-top fits ahead of the engine bay without compromising aerodynamics or the performance of the car. The reduced space needed to house the roof enables the car to offer an exceptional internal storage space: the new 458 Italia spider features in fact a rear bench that can hold a bespoke set of luggage or a golf carry bag.

Car Ferrari 458 Spider Racing Challenge

Ferrari is planning to officially unveil the 458 Spider at the Frankfurt Auto Show in a few weeks. The Spider shares most of the same features as the coupe, such as the 4.5 liter v8 with 562 horsepower and 395 lb-ft of torque, but will primarily differ with the feature of a retractable aluminum hardtop roof that will pit the spider directly against Lamborghini's Gallardo Spyder.

Ferrari traditionally puts a fabric roof on convertibles but managed to patent an aluminum design that retracts behind the seats just in front of the engine bay. This design actually weighs less than the preceding fabric design, allowing Ferrari to retain the 42:58 front-to-rear weight distribution that the coupe has. In addition to implementing a patented, weight-saving design, Ferrari has also managed to make these changes without compromising aerodynamics or performance. Small domes have been added behind the seats to assist with air flow to ensure appropriate cooling for the Italia and an electronic windstop has been added to ensure interior comfort and noise reduction for the driver and passenger in case you want to have a conversation at 124 mph.

Then in 2013, Ferrari is likely to launch the latest version (lifting) of California, and some news saying that this year would also support the Scuderia Ferrari 458, the car sebauh faster than 458 Italians and will be a few articles from Car 458 Racing Challenge.

Ferrari 458 Italia Grand Am

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Fnl5zdeY7Bs/TicGh4QxkjI/AAAAAAAEvwM/_KTNbfFiGOw/s1600/Ferrari-1100818.jpg

Ferrari has unveiled its new 458 Italia Grand Am race car which will roll out on July 26 and 27 for a private session at Daytona International Speedway in Florida.

The 458 Grand Am features a 500 horsepower V8 with a 48-mm restrictor plate and rev limiter, rollover bar, new brakes tuned for the car's lack of ABS and traction control and Continental hard-compound racing tires.�

Press Release

The 458 Italian Grand Am launched at Fiorano circuit


Maranello, 18 July - the 458 Italia Grand Am was given its track baptism today at the Fiorano circuit. The car has been developed in conjunction with Michelotto Automobili, based on the GT3 version of the V8 Ferrari berlinetta, with the aim of racing in the famous North American series.

The 458 Grand Am is built to match the American regulations and is therefore different to the European car, especially in that it develops 500 horsepower and has less efficient aerodynamics than the GT version. It is also fitted with a 48 mm restrictor and maximum revs are 8000. Significant modifications have been made to the braking system, as the car has neither ABS nor traction control. Other differences to the GT3 include the roll-over bar which gives greater lateral protection to increase safety in a series in which collisions are rather more frequent. The car is fitted with tyres from Continental, the sole supplier to the series, featuring a very hard compound, again to conform with the series regulations. On its shakedown today, it completed a good number of trouble-free laps, 45 to be precise in the hands of Maurizio Mediani and Jaime Melo, as they took turns at the wheel.

Ferrari F430 Scuderia turn?d into rolling canvas by artist Laurence Gartel?Video?


Famous artist Laurence Gartel has jumped into the art car game - again - by creating this one-off Ferrari F430 Scuderia.

The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is a lightweight, simple, limited-edition supercar that is one of the fastest Ferraris ever created and is known to be a piece of art on its own by car enthusiasts throughout the world. Seven-times World Champion Race Car Driver Michael Schumacher was involved in the Scuderia�s development which resulted in becoming a part of Ferrari history. The Scud is known to be priceless and still trades above its base sticker price since the demand exceeds supply and everyone wants to own the best of the best. Laurence Gartel now has created a one of a kind Ferrari 430 Scuderia that will be impossible for even for Ferrari to commission a clone.

According to the artist�s representatives, this particular F430 Scuderia�s value has jumped all the way to a cool $1 million because of Gartel�s work.

ARTIST GARTEL TRANSLATES A FERRARI SCUDERIA into a CANVAS.


Prior to the personal computer Laurence GARTEL broke all established methodologies when he explored electronic imaging known today as (Digital Media) in the early 70s while working on analog system computers. GARTEL set out to create new visual language through the adoption of technology in the art making process. GARTEL taught Andy Warhol how to use the Amiga Computer when he received the commission to produce the album cover for Debbie Harry (Blondie) in the 80s.

GARTEL's new psychedelic Scuderia (valued at close to a million dollars) becomes the latest of unique projects GARTEL's interest in SUPER CARS started several years ago and his exhibition "AUTO MOTION" based on the inspiration of the FERRARI automobile was first showcased at the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery at Edison State College in Ft. Myers, Florida. But the question asked is: "WHY paint a FERRARI? The answer is: "WHY NOT?" - Digitally of course.

Ever since the first cave paintings were discovered in France (40,000 BC) man has had an intellectual surge of artistic expression. Stained glass as a medium created in the Middle Ages gave birth to a new formula of artistic process. The idea of "unique surface" is something artists have sought after over time.

Some purists would say, "A Ferrari needs to be left well enough alone." That may be true, but when a collector has more than 10 of them, you can begin to see the options," states GARTEL. "Artistic and cultural minds change our thought process," declares GARTEL. Imagine if there was no Frank Gehry? Architecture would be dull in our contemporary environment. "So I tip my hat to Enzo Ferrari for having real vision in the automotive world. � It is about to evolve into a prophetic significance."

"A master artist is one that does not accept society's rules." "We have seen break out artists such as Dali in surrealism and Warhol in pop culture. GARTEL brought us the Digital Art Movement almost single-handedly," states the CEO of ArtFellas LLC , the initiator and main sponsor of the "Ferrari 430 Scuderia into a Canvas" project. "The internet, comes first," it is the Media and the Medium. You will be able to watch this event online on http://artfellas.tv in live streaming which is the new dedicated section of Artfellas.com - The Art Social Network. If Marshall McLuhan's statement "The medium is the message" were ever true, GARTEL's art speaks volumes. "That is why his art is going live on our page. We will witness GARTEL's creation of the Scuderia literally unfolding on our pages. In the meantime, people should look out for GARTEL's ART SCUDERIA surprising onlookers on the streets of Miami. - Tune in Below! - )

Novitec Ferrari 458 Italia?Video?


Novitec Rosso announced that it will greet Geneva Auto Show visitors with a Ferrari 458 Italia modification program. The Italian tuner offers a complex development that targets the tech, exterior and interior areas of the supercar.

The Novitec Ferrari 458 Italia is powered by the standard 4.5- liter V8 engine that outputs 39 hp / 28.7 kW more than the factory version. To tget the extra 40 hp, the Novitec Ferrari 458 Italia is fitted with a carbon-fiber airbox and modified air routing, a high-performance exhaust system and spor catalysts. Of course, a re-mapped ECU is also used. The final output of the Novitec Ferrari 458 Italia is rated at 609 hp / 448 kW at 9,100 rpm and 569 Nm of torque at 5,400 rpm.

For a top speed in excess of 330 km/h (205 mph) Novitec Rosso fine-tuned the body components using the wind tunnel at the University of Stuttgart. Made of carbon fiber the aerodynamic-enhanced kit consists of a lower spoiler, right/left wing flaps and ventilation louvers attached to the original bumper fascia. Also in carbon fiber are the fenders, side skirts, carbon-fiber mirror housings, rear spoiler and diffuser. And last but not least the roof panel and engine hood are also made from carbon fiber.

Custom-tailored versions of the three-piece Novitec Rosso NF3 wheels were developed for the 458 Italia. Novitec Rosso chose a staggered combination of size 9Jx21 wheels in front and size 12Jx22 on the rear. Custom-manufactured Pirelli PZero tires are mounted in size 255/30 ZR 21 and 335/25 ZR 22 front to rear, respectively.

Other changes made to the vehicle include a new lowering springs that drop the car about 35mm, plus a hydraulic lift system that raise the front of the car by 40 mm which is extremely helpful over those pesky speed bumps.

Press Release

World Debut at the Geneva Motor Show 2011:
NOVITEC ROSSO Refines the Ferrari 458 Italia
609 hp / 448 kW, more than 330 km/h and a Sporty Designer Suit

NOVITEC ROSSO now also refines the new Ferrari 458


Italia. At the Geneva Motor Show 2011 the extensive program for the mid-engine sports car will celebrate its world debut. The high-performance program includes engine tuning that increases power output to 609 hp / 448 kW, propelling the two-seater car to a top speed in excess of 330 km/h. The NOVITEC ROSSO high-performance exhaust system, made from the same INCONEL material also used in Formula 1 racing, optimizes both power yield and exhaust note while weighing in at 21 kilograms less than the production exhaust. The NOVITEC ROSSO aerodynamic-enhancement kit was developed in the wind tunnel and is manufactured from carbon fibers. It also contributes to the lightweight-design concept of the NOVITEC ROSSO conversion. A custom-tailored tire/wheel combination with diameters of 21 and 22 inches, a modified suspension with front lift system and exclusive interior options round out the upgrade for the Italian sports car.

The NOVITEC ROSSO specialists unleash an additional 39 hp / 28.7 kW of power from the 4.5-liter V8. A new carbon-fiber airbox with modified air routing is installed on the intake side. The NOVITEC
ROSSO high-performance exhaust system was developed to improve exhaust-gas flow. The exhaust system consists of two high-performance manifolds, sport catalysts and a rear muffler with a control flap, whose sound can be adjusted by the Manettino button on the steering wheel.

The exhaust system features three tailpipes with a diameter of 90 millimeters and optimizes power yield while producing a more sporty exhaust note. But that's not all: It is manufactured from INCONEL,
the same material used on Formula 1 race cars, making the NOVITEC ROSSO exhaust especially heat resistant and more importantly extremely light: Compared to the production exhaust it represents a
weight saving of 21 kilograms.

The engine conversion also includes newly programmed engine electronics with newly calibrated mapping for ignition and injection.

After the conversion the engine of the 458 Italia produces 609 hp / 448 kW at 9,100 rpm. Simultaneously peak torque grows from 540 Nm to 569 Nm at 5,400 rpm. The engine also responds even faster to throttle commands and the slightly higher redline speed results in even better continuity during upshifts.

Powered by this engine the two-seater with NOVITEC ROSSO engine tuning reaches a top speed in excess of 330 km/h.

At these speeds favorable aerodynamic properties are essential. The NOVITEC ROSSO body components were fine-tuned in the wind tunnel of the University of Stuttgart. The components are made from especially light high-strength carbon fibers and give the car an unabashed racing look while reducing its weight.

The NOVITEC ROSSO front spoiler is attached to the production bumper and lends the car a more striking face. In combination with the flaps to the right and left of the central air inlet its sophisticated
shape minimizes lift on the front axle, which benefits directional stability at high speeds. Wings and the fender-mounted ventilation louvers now made from carbon fibers add further sporty emphasis to
the front of the car. Carbon-fiber mirror housings add the final touch.

Strikingly styled NOVITEC ROSSO rocker panels create optimal airflow between front and rear wheel wells.

To reduce lift on the rear axle for an optimal aerodynamic balance NOVITEC ROSSO upgrades the 458 Italia with a rear spoiler and a carbon-fiber diffuser. The racing look is rounded out with additional
carbon-fiber applications such as ventilation louvers or the fog lamp surround.

Custom-tailored versions of the three-piece NOVITEC ROSSO NF3 wheel were developed to make perfect use of the available space in the wheel wells. Choosing a staggered combination of size 9Jx21 wheels in front and size 12Jx22 on the rear axle further emphasizes the wedge shape of the two-seater car. Technology partner Pirelli supplies PZero high-performance tires custom-tailored for this car. On the front axle the tires are mounted in size 255/30 ZR 21. In the rear tires in size 335/25 ZR 22 provide optimal traction.

The NOVITEC ROSSO sport springs are precision-matched to these ultra-low-profile tires. The springs lower the ride height of the Ferrari by some 35 millimeters. At the same time the NOVITEC ROSSO
specialists also developed a particular feature that further improves the everyday utility of the 458 Italia.

The hydraulic NOVITEC ROSSO front lift system can raise the front of the car at the push of a button in the cockpit by some 40 millimeters, eliminating problems posed by speed bumps or parking
garage ramps. At a second push of the button or automatically upon reaching a speed of 80 km/h the front reverts to its original position.

NOVITEC ROSSO fully caters to customer requests with perfectly crafted leather and Alcantara interiors. Customers can choose from an endless number of colors and a multitude of upholstery designs
meticulously sewn to perfection. The racing theme of the NOVITEC ROSSO body kit is continued in the interior with a center console, scuff plates and longer shift paddles on the steering wheel, all made
from carbon fibers.

2011 Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo Concept By Peter Simon Design

2011 Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo Concept By Peter Simon Design
Based on the Credo E-Bone form language, Peter Simon designed an incredible Ferrari concept. This designer takes the Italian dynamic and organic, soft shapes that are closest to nature. Inside and out, this vehicle is meant to radiate energy and power. The inspiration is no less than animal and human bones, creating a dynamic supercar that�s highly energetic.
This is the Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo, the cars that never ever stops, but appears to sit in time even as it flies down the highway. In the event that our fantasy does come true, concept cars designer Peter Simon already has an idea of what he thinks the Enzo successor is going to look like.
2011 Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo Concept By Peter Simon Design
Featuring a far more aggressive nose and front end than the real Enzo, Simon�s concept work is the personification of a car that certainly poses a design identity that�s all its own.
According to Simon, the inspiration behind his work was taken from � get this � human and animal bones. Simon took his inspiration, weird as it sounds, and combines with the flair of Maranello to create a striking study that boasts of swooping angles that we�ve never seen from an actual Prancing Horse.
2011 Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo Concept By Peter Simon Design
It�s not hard to imagine what the world would be like if Ferrari did come out with a successor to the venerable Enzo supercar. As one of the meanest and most awesome supercars to come out of Maranello in history, the 2011 Ferrari Sport Cars Ferrari Enzo Concept By Peter Simon Design certainly has no equal � that is unless a successor to it comes along down the road.
