Ferrari 458 Crashes in Geneva



That's a negative week, isn't it? In this little amout of time I have already reported the crash of three Lamborghinisa Ferraria Bentley and a Porsche and now I report news from Geneva of another crash involving a Ferrari, more precisely a 458 Italia.

A Ferrari 458 V6? Because REPLICA!


I'm not a fan of replicas, but I admit this one is very well done. For £35.000 you can fool most pedestrians and drive around town in a replica of a Ferrari 458 based on a Ford Cougar. Forget the performance and engine of the real supercar, this replica hides in the front a 2.5L V6 that produces a not-so-exciting 168hp, with an even less impressive 0-60 mph sprint in 8.6s and a top speed of 140 mph.

Ferrari 458 Splits in Two Pieces


If you're looking for a cheap (or just half) Ferrari 458 Italia to buy this might be your moment. An employee from a transport company (in Birminghman, Alabama) decided to go for a joy ride with a friend in a 458 before to be loaded into the truck, but the result of this recklessness had a negative effect as the driver lost the control of the Ferrari at around 225 kph (140mph), hit a post and broke the car into two pieces.

Ferrari 458 wakes up the neighborhood


No wonder most residents of Knightsbridge hate supercars, especially the ones coming from Middle East. They tend to show off around the exclusive district of London all the time, and honestly as much as I love to hear them, I would be quite pissed to hear a 458 Italia (fitted with a bloody noisy Novitec Rosso exhaust) like this which keeps to the rev the engine to the limit for so long.

Ferrari 458 with nearly £100.000 on options!


The great thing of purchasing a Ferrari is that there's an infinite way to make it unique with a great amount of options and personalizations. The bad thing is that most Ferrari owners are quite boring when it comes to customize their Prancing Horse; how many Californias or 458s have you see painted red with standard wheels and black interior?

A Ferrari 458 with a " spatial " wrap


Wrapping a car is not really new stuff, over the years we have seen several trends such as the classic matte colour, then the chrome and lately the velvet. Forget all these, because the space might be the future. Well, not literally.

Justin Bieber hits a photographer in his Ferrari



Justin Bieber hits again, literally. The famous singer has been caught in Sunset Boulevard as he was leaving a restaurant with his well known Ferrari 458 Italia. He's always sorrounded by paparazzis and this time the flashes of their cameras have caused him problems to drive, and of course if you're smart enough to stand close to the car you don't have to be surprised if you get hit.

Chick in a Ferrari 458 races a GT-R



Sophie takes out her Ferrari 458 Italia and races an heavily tuned Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12 in a drag strip. I think that you already know the result, since Godzilla on steroids produces an outstanding 1500hp, mean while the stock 458 " just " 570hp.. in any case, it's always good to see a chick pushing the pedal to the metal!

McLaren 12C vs Ferrari 458



Two of the hottest and fastest V8 supercars of the moment side by side, the Ferrari 458 Italia and the McLaren 12C. Who might be the quickest on a long straight competition, the Ferrari with its great sounding V8 or the McLaren with its smaller but twin turbocharged V8?

Lucky Ferrari 458 Nearly Crashes



Driving a supercar at Nürburgring is not easy, and if the weather is not optimal, you'd better think twice what you're doing! This Ferrari 458 Italia caught on a rainy day loses the rear at Brünnchen corner, it spins out and nearly crashes into the barriers, but hopefully the italian supercar remains on the tarmac of the track.

Alonso and Massa in the 458 Italia



Although F1 racing drivers are used to the extreme and incomparable sensations of a Formula 1 car, this video proves that even with a supercar they have huge fun. Just like two kids, Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa keep smiling and laughing while sliding and pushing to the limit a Ferrari 458 Italia on track. Who wouldn't have a big smile while doing stuff like that in a Ferrari?

Ferrari 458 Crashes into the crowd



Ferrari 458 owners are quickly gaining a negative reputation, in recent times it's hard not to find every week news about one of these crashing, the latest one was just 4 days ago in Italy (Click for the article). This accident took place in Brazil and during a car event a yellow 458 Italia was just driving fast in the corner and tried to brake too late but it ended the ride against a fence by nearly hitting the crowd. A pretty scary moment that was going to be a tragic day, but hopefully it doesn't look like to have seriously injured anybody, but the driver has been charged for causing bodily injury.

Ferrari 458 Spider CRASH!




What's wrong with all these recent Ferrari 458 accidents? This time a Ferrari 458 Spider (apparently, registered the same day) on a wet day tries to overtake another car in which the passenger is filming the scene, but it slides and crashes into the guard rail, probably because the manettino must have been set in the wrong position with the traction control off. The occupants of the car sound really shocked about the accident, but hopefully the driver and the passenger of the Ferrari didn't reported any injuries.

DJ Afrojack crashes a Ferrari 458 Italia

Right, if you remember just a couple of days ago the dutch DJ Afrojack has posted a picture of himself after that he crashed with a record time of 44 minutes his brand new Ferrari 458 Italia. Hopefully nobody got hurt except the back and front bumper of the Ferrari, but as you can see he poses with pride next to the wrecked car and he doesn't give a damn.

Ferrari 458 Italia crash (yes, another one!)

What's wrong with the Ferrari 458 drivers? Another Prancing Horse bites the dust, this time the accident took place in Istanbul, Turkey, and the reason might probably be the speed mixed with the wet road; not really the best conditions to push 570hp. Luckily both the passenger reported minor injuries, but if you notice, due to the collision a piece of iron has been slammed on the wildshield of the Ferrari, and it could have caused serious injuries.



At least, I don't think they have beaten the record of two young boys that have crashed a 2 hours old Ferrari 458 Spider!

Ferrari 458 Spider crashed

Through internet we have heard about a crash involving a Ferrari 458 Spider in the spanish island of Mallorca. The driver took delivery of the Prancing Horse and just a couple of hours later it was already to be thrown. The driver lost the control of the italian supercar and finished his ride against the guard rail and the cliff, I'm afraid that some polish won't be enough to restore the conditions of the car.

458 Italia vs BMW 3er E30

Love the work of YouTube channel M5Boarddotcom, they always bring us drag race videos with the most rare and fast supercars, and sometimes supercars racing with old modified vehicles.

The race of today features a stock Ferrari 458 Italia versus an old BMW 3-Series E30, fitted with a turbocharger. Who's gonna win?

Italian Cars and Coffee

Yes, even in Italy we have the famous " Cars and Coffee " event, and this 2nd edition has been once again a success! Just like the name sais, there's nothing better than an italian espresso with a group of friends and nice cars. The event was held nearby Turin in north Italy in a beautiful location that has gathered a great amount of supercars and exotics. To make it even more special, the same day was the 102th anniversary of Alfa Romeo, indeed it was a good occasion to display the rare 8C Competizione, Coupè and Spider. Enjoy the gallery below of the event:
