2014 Ferrari 458 Speciale Review

   In my mind, Ferrari has many good characteristics, such as making sports cars, making fast cars, and making cool cars. But some of their cars can be kind of a letdown, like the California. That car is really boring. It isn't fast, it isn't pretty, and isn't as cool as an Aston Martin DB9. But looking back at their good side, and you'll find some pretty amazing cars, such as this one: the 458 Speciale. It has 597 hp, 35 more than a standard 458, and carries over the 398 pound-feet of torque. 0-60 takes 3.0 seconds, which matches the Lamborghini Aventador and the Porsche 911 GT3. The interior is almost the same, with the same dashboard, the same navigation system, and the same crazy and chaotic steering wheel, which does things like tell you when to shift, changes the drive mode, and turns off the stability control. But most importantly, how much does it cost? Well, if you're in the market for a high-performance supercar, this might be a good choice, for only $261,162. That is just insane. Who can afford that? But the people who can know who they are and won't car if it is $200K or $400k. It doesn't matter to them as much.
