Is this a standard 458 colour scheme????

[Streetrod]

I have been very vocal in my dislike for the way the 458 looks, untill I saw these pics. And I have to admit I love this colour scheme. Is this a custom job or is it offered by Ferrari?

Its so refreshing to see someone step outside of the normal Ferrari box.

Forget the 458 that's an ultra rare (1 of 14?) Porsche GT1s in speed yellow, used to homologate the 98 Le Mans winning car!

[pistolp]

My god that is horrific, if you don't believe me just imagine the point where you come to sell and you ask someone to write out a cheque for the car!

Sod that, I'm loving the Porsche 911GT1 parked on the other side of that pic! Epic car.

(The 458 looks awesome in that combo though - Deffo a break from the norm)

[TonyHetherington]

Sod the 458, isn't that a Porsche GT1 ?

Anyhow, the colour scheme reminds me of an NSX, not quite sure why. It looks ok, but I think I prefer the one colour bodies.

wtf !
what's that fancy 911 in the background ?

[Justman]

I'm loving that Wiesmann!!!

That's got to sting a bit. You go to great lengths to order an early 458, get it painted / wrapped to make it extra attention grabbing / different...

And then someone goes and parks an ever so slightly more special yellow Porsche next to it which draws all the attention

(bit like the Veyron Bleu I spotted at the Dorchester the other night next to someone's spanking new white SLS - them's the breaks I guess )

Following the trend, Is that a cream Mini D I spot in the background?

On a serious note, bar the number plate, I think thats the best looking 458 I have seen, looks fantastic, maybe anthracite wheels would work better though?

Boy you guys are funny I have to agree with you that anthracite wheels would be the cherry on the cake

Looks awful - More Audi TT style esq....

I saw this F430 a cuple of years ago whilst in Dubai.

I saw that car parked in Casino Square a few years ago. Utterly vile but it did stand out.

I really like the 458.

[lambo_xx]

The 458 looks ok, but that Porsche GT1 is ace!

That 430 though is horrid! Those insane colour schemes really only suit Lambos in my opinion.

Reminds me a bit of this:

[Mini1275]

Best 458 i've seen....but i don't care, look at the 911 GT1!

[supersport]

That GT1 seems to be making a lot of appearances on PH at the moment, mind you can't have too many photos of the thing.

Don't like that 458 colour schema at all.

[911Thrasher]

looks like the GT1 that was in St Tropez on the port 2wks ago

[Shmee]

That's RRR's 458 Italia down on the French Riviera!

As usual here's my video of it:

I reckon with a normal bonnet, that would look awesome.
