458 speciale!

Hey guys had a chance to drive a 458 Speciale today! I thought the 458 couldn't get any better. This car is phenomenal! Sound is just unreal. It has a crazy high pitched exotic scream. Don't know which sounds better this or F12. The steering feels so smooth and precise. It's not a huge increase in hp but it feels so much faster and revs up quicker. Everything about this car is perfect. Well, except the fin on the side skirt. Now onto some crappy iphone pics. Enjoy

Thanks! So cool, and a proper use of three exhaust pipes, unlike the boring two pedal car in front of it.

Is that a real LM or a converted one? Also, is it the one Detailed Image did?

No, it's just one of our customers cars. We were just doing a Classiche certification.
