Man if only they had made that rear end more similar to the Scuderia's.. the proportions and placement of the exhaust pipes just look off.

It is so hard the tweak the front without losing the feel of 458. If you get the angle and the curve wrong you'll end up with either 430 scuderia or 360 challenge stradale feel (if you look closely to the driver side nostril, it's kind of 360'ish)
That with no stripe I can dig. Especially with the removal of the horse and odd colored center section of the front valance.

Not exactly sure whats wrong with the rear end. The exhaust just seems out of place and the defusers are oddly shaped and not as agressive as you would think. Plus the rear grill now makes the rear of the car look a lot taller and less elegant.

For me standard body with that motor and that lovely little race stalk on the center console would do it.

I never quite understand why Ferrari had to hire Pininfarina to design their cars. Now I do.

Ferrari really made a mess of it. Speciale is simply ugly in all aspects!!

Totally agree with you. You're right.

Front is inspired by the 360 and the rear by the 430. It would be nice if it was a bit fresher. Yet a 458 is pretty great to start with.

Me! Front is actually worse than the front end of an Italia! The rear looks likely they went backwards and copied a F430scud. It doesn't flow well and has some odd angle. But I'm sure the Tifosi are lining up to buy one!

The interior is nice though.

Based on the pics posted: Can I get a CS exterior with F458 speciale engine/DCT/electronics!
