2011 Ferrari 458 Italia - 10k km

OVERVIEW

SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2011 Ferrari 458 Italia showing only 10,356 kilometers (6,435 miles) at the time of this cataloging. Heralded for its 9,000-rpm redline, the 458 was the last Ferrari to feature a naturally-aspirated V8 and is the Italian stallion that set a benchmark by which many other supercars have been measured ever since.

Showcasing exterior design by Pininfarina, the car’s sex appeal is exemplified through the curves of its Rossa Corsa-painted aluminum body, and its contrasting gloss black 20-inch wheels.

The 458 Italia’s Getrag seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox delivers instantaneous shifts, making acceleration sprints seamless – and 60 mph arrives quite swiftly, in only about three seconds. The car’s steering weight offers maximum control with quick action, and the chassis is tuned to optimize its cornering talents. When the joyride comes to its unfortunate conclusion, the carbon-ceramic Brembo brakes work efficiently to bring the speeds back to reasonable and prudent levels.

Boasting robust service history and a host of included accessories, this well-kept, low-mileage 458 Italia is ready for its lucky future owner to drive and enjoy.

NOTABLE COMMENTARY

• “With sensuous curves and 562 horsepower screaming from its 9,000-rpm V8, the 458 is four-wheeled amphetamine.” – Car and Driver

• “The sound I makes as you run up through the gears, the instant-on throttle, and the razor-sharp steering, all combine to make driving this Ferrari a truly unique experience.” – Motor Trend

• “A 458 is not a purebred sports car. Oh God, it drives like one, but it’s also a singer and a model and an athlete. It’s a heptathlete with the lungs of Pavarotti and the face of an angel. – Driving.Co

• “Never has a car this fast with this drivetrain configuration been this easy to drive. After three laps you’re tossing it around like a Miata that just happens to be doing 40-60mph more on every straight.” – The Truth About Cars
