The Ferrari 458 Italia has been awarded the title of “Performance Car of the Year” by Auto Express magazine for the second year in a row.
Competing against some the most exciting performance cars on sale in the UK today, it was the Ferrari 458 Italia which was the clear favourite of the judging panel once again. All cars were scored for performance and handling both on road and on track, as well as for sheer desirability, with the 458 Italia earning top marks in all three categories.
Steve Fowler, Editor in Chief of Auto Express, commented: “Being a double winner of our Performance Car of the Year is a massive achievement for the 458 Italia. Nothing has come close to matching its blend of performance, agility, style and quality – this is a car that’s as thrilling to drive as it is to look at, a joy to potter around in and an absolute blast to drive fast. It’s going to take some stopping at next year’s shootout.”
The Ferrari 458 Italia has continued to receive critical acclaim internationally, garnering over 35 international awards in its short career, including on its launch BBC Top Gear’s “Car of the Year” and “Supercar of the Year”, and Fifth Gear’s “Fast Car of the Year”. In 2010 Auto Express, What Car? and CAR Magazine all named the 458 Italia “Performance Car of the Year”. More recently it has received the accolade of “2011 Best Driver’s Car” from the influential US title, Motor Trend, “Best Sports Car” from Auto Motor und Sport in Germany and was also voted “World Performance Car of the Year 2011”. The 458 Italia’s 4.5-litre V8 engine was voted “Best Performance Engine” and “Best Engine Above 4 Litres” at the prestigious 2011 International Engine of the Year Awards.
The 2012 Ferrari FF is presented during the unveiling of the Neiman Marcus Christmas catalog.

The catalog offers 10 of the Ferraris with four-wheel drive in the silver-gray color “grigio caldo.” A set of tan leather luggage matching the interior is included.

As the follower of the model F430 Ferrari presented the model F458 in September, 2009. V8 engine with the direct injection was offered with 7 gears dual clutch transmission. Automatic control of the vehicle dynamics features the ABS, electronic differential and automatic traction control system. There is nothing else to say here.
The desire to get closer to a thin stranger, inevitably involves the background as well as objective self-esteem: referring to the skin. Cam Shaft Company from Steinbach, Hessen specialized in fine-finishing using the foil of the “best” cars. And with a stunning success which is undoubtedly proved by the Ferrari presented here. Treatment with foil of various things helps to achieve the results that people could not imagine a few years ago.
On the one hand Cam Shaft guarantees the possibility to eliminate the process of foil treatment at a competitive price. On the other hand, a technically correct process of treatment will bring much more benefits to the vehicle. In this case the roof is treated with the chrome foil as well as the upper parts of the side wings while the rear lights, fog lights and a third stop light are adequately dimmed. Dimming of the lights, by the way, can always be reversed. Stock disks are covered with black lacquer, allowing yellow cramps of the disk brake mechanism to look even brighter. It is also worth mentioning that Solingen company Wimmer Rennsporttechnik added some extra horse power to the initial 570 hp and endowed the car with 588 hp and 562 Nm. Optimization of the software costs 2.999 euros.
