The car is stunning and I mean bite the back of your hand stunning! I want one! I must say however, that interior is hideous! Why does the steering wheel have 6million buttons on it?

i think out of the 2 colours you've shown there the yellow is the best, but i think black would look awesome

although im unsure about the interior, dunno if i like the one dial in the center, i realise that there will be screens either side telling everything else, but i just like the traditional look of 1 dial for the speedo and another for the RPM, maybe im just acting like an old fart, still wouldn't say no to one, if you do buy one, well done mate!

rear view of the yellow one looks pretty awful to me, single lights look odd. Dash is a horror, so it has a digital speedo then? im sure i remember that from the 80s

The rear end and dash are the bits I like the most. Not sure about the front end but I will reserve judgement until I see one in the flesh.

The 458 really is the most achingly beautiful sports car that has been made by Ferrari for a very long time. Up there with the Alfa 8c in my opinion.

Looks great from the front but not so sure about the rear lights, would need to see it in the flesh. What would kill it for me is the interior, simply horrendous, looks like something that Korea would have produced back in the 80's. I bet those side pods will start to sqweek and rattle within no time, just ghastly.

Quick question, how likely are you to hit those horn buttons every time you turn the wheel?

Probably 100% should I ever have the opportunity. Wipers, indicators and high beams will be all over the place too.....don't care though!

Blows the 8C away IMO. That Alfa is WELL overhyped.

Great pics traxx, are you planning on adding one to the fleet? Although I wonder how it would compare to that 670 you have..!

Have to say that the 458 is probably the best looking sports car at the moment, the previous holder of that title being the Gallardo.

Ferrari's have been butt fugly in recent years especially with their long bonnet cars such as the 599 and California not to mention their lardy traditional mid engine looking cars in the 360 and 430.

The 458 has slimmed in the waist (like the F355) but in addition has picked up enough agressive styling from the Enzo to give it a complete modern look.

What took them so long is all I can say.
