Celebrating its relaunch, British tuner Prindiville has come up with new packages for the Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari 458 Italia, and Range Rover Evoque.

British tuners are known for great taste in design and superb craftsmanship. Prindiville Design might be good at craftsmanship, but we’re not sure about their styling taste.

Judging by these pictures of their Aventador, they seem to be fans of massive wings, and stupid side skirts, each of which considered to be seriously uncool, especially on a high-end supercar. Still, we have to see the other cars as well before judging their work.

Prondiville kits are made of aircraft-grade carbon fibre which result is a remarkable weight saving. They have also made titanium high performance exhaust systems for extra lightness. That in combination with boosted power as a result of uprated ECUs and high-flow induction systems will give each of these cars better performance over the standard models.

The tuner then fits the cars with uprated suspension and brakes to cope with the performance upgrades. Should you decide to modify the interior as well, they will hook you up with a wide choice of luxurious leathers and other lavish upholstery materials, available in an exciting palette of colours. There’s also a ‘jewellery packs’, which replace standard cabin trim components with alternatives crafted from highly polished milled aluminium.

More details will be released soon.

A. Kahn’s latest project car is Ferrari 458 Italia, available in two editions of triple pearl white and Rosso Corsa red.

Kahn is so proud of what they’ve done here that say just owning these cars is enough and you don’t even have to drive them. Yea, we didn’t get that either.

Anyway, the Rosso Crosa version. It is garnished with matt Pearl Grey finish to the Roof, matt pearl grey side skirts, matt pearl grey front and rear bumper sections, as well as sport suspension and 9×21” front and 12×22 rear alloy wheels finished in matt pearl grey with original center cap, plus yellow brake calipers. It looks utterly fantastic.

Inside the cabin Kahn adds Leather central tunnel, Crema Daytona lights, Electro Chromatic Interior & Exterior, yellow rev counter, leather headlining and carpets and stitching in Bordeaux.

The triple white version, visually it gets the wheels, the suspension lowering and red brake calipers, and inside the cabin it gets black Nero Leather Electric Seats, yellow Rev Counter, leather Headlining, upholstered rear bench seat wall, stitching in white, carpetys in black. As always, Kahn can change it based on customer’s desired specs.

Kahn Ferrari 458s are loaded with options, including AFS Light System, F1 paddle shift, instrument surround with LED’s, front elevator, iPod connectivity, satellite navigation, Bluetooth, front and rear park assist, high power Hifi with JBL speaker system, Ferrari Scuderia shields, Dual Zone climate control, and…

Marchettino’s contribution to the world of cars is invaluable. He always brings us great videos of the latest supercars in the real world, right from the street and race tracks. Here’s his video of the new 2012 Ferrari 458 Spider hanging out in Maranello. You get some extremely nice beauty shots of this gorgeous gorgeous car and then as a cherry for the top some fabulous exhaust noise as the drivers takes off to leave.

Check it out after the jump.

Let’s not beat around the bush. Each time in these seemingly unfair drag races it’s the knackered old piece of junk that’s the winner. This 1967 Volvo Amazon however is not a piece of junk. Some of you might have already recognized it as the Vox Amazon, the 600 hp monster. It is astonishing how fast it is though, considering that Ferrari 458 has like 560 hp and is a focused supercar and not an ancient wagon!

This is a good watch.

Akrapovic exhausts are kinda similar to ADV1 wheels. They are both high-end products made exquisitely for high-end cars. Their titanium slip-on system for the Ferrari 458 Italia  is 14 lg lighter than the stock system, comes with 3 carbon/titanium tail pipes, results in 11 more horsepower and 26 more torque, and most importantly improves the car’s soundtrack. Check it out in the video after the jump.

Let’s make one thing clear first. The purpose of this video is not to laugh at this driver who couldn’t launch his supercar off the line properly, but to admire the 458′s beauty when it’s spinning out of control! There’s also an important message here: Do not turn the traction control of your Ferrari off until you are used to its vicious power. Or you gonna run over some poor photographers.

Looking at the pictures of this new Anderson Ferrari 458 you can’t help but think they looked at Mansory’s 458 and thought: what a beauty!

This aero kit Anderson has come up with for the Italia consists of front lip spoiler, front bumper flaps, wider side skirts, a modest rear lip spoiler, engine air outlets, window air intake grille and front bumper ventilation grid.

The worst parts are of course the front lip, which ruins the face of the car, and the two-tone paint job.

Those black bits, the roof, the hood, the mirrors and the door handles, the trunk lid with the diffuser, as well as tail light trims, are of course manually coated with carbon according to Anderson: “in the most elaborate manner.”

Once they were finished with the body they also bolted a set of 21-inch wheels, and fiddled with engine and installed a new exhaust system, so it now produces 623 hp.

Attention tuners of the world: Please leave the 458 alone! It doesn’t need your stupid body kits. Stop ruining it.

A few days ago we showed you teasers of DMC’s new Milano 458 having a photoshoot for SEMA 2011. Here’s the actual studio pictures and official details of this tuned Ferrari 458 Italia.

The 458′s 4.5 liter V8 is tuned to 610 hp and 569 Nm of torque. That means 330 km/h top speed. Granted, it’s only 5 km/h more than what a stock 458 can reach, but that makes all the difference in a race!

The Milano is garnished with visible carbon fiber parts for various parts which make a nice contrast with the yellow color of the exterior, blacked-out roof and black rims.

Speaking of rims, DMC presents a combination of 21” and 22″ rims (9Jx21 front / 12Jx22 rear) with VA 255/30 ZR 21 and HA 335/25 ZR22 respectively. The car also gets a lightweight stainless steel valved exhaust system which is 19 kg lighter than the standard kit and make an awesomer noise.

If you want to see the car in person, visit SEMA booth No. 48146.

One of the greatest debates petrolheads are having this year is to decide which is better: Ferrari 458 Italia or McLaren MP4-12C. Ferrari fans argue that the 458 has more soul and passion than the MP4, while McLaren fans say bollocks, it’s all the performance and the MP4 is faster. This time AutoExpress pits these two giants up against each other for another showdown.

Ferrari 458 Milano by German tuner DMC is preparing for SEMA show. And here’s an early look thanks to some behind-the-scene pictures they sent us.

The car is now in an studio somewhere doing its official photoshoot for the official release after the show. The two-tone 458 here shows a carbon fiber body kit with DMc’s exclusive rear diffuser, front flaps and side mirrors.

DMC is adamant these carbon bits are far superior than the OEM standard pieces in terms of quality and finish.

The car also features Custom Diamond Forged Rims and an optional powerful Engine-Modification. This is definitley something to look out for if you are attending SEMA next week.

We will bring you the official picture and details of the car when they’re released.

Let’s make something clear from the beginning. This Ferrari 458 is tuned by Underground Racing and has a 700whp twin-turbo engine. Although it matches the output of its rival here, Lamborghini Aventador, but at the end of the day it is a tuned car versus a stock car. So just forget the competition and enjoy two of the hottest cars in the world putting the hammer down on the freeway!

UGR is apparently working on a TT system for the Aventador. Now that’s something to look forward to.

Ferrari F1 drivers unveiled the 458 Spider in Japan during Ferrari charity auction at Zojoji, the main temple of the Jodo-Buddhists.

The auction was held to further support the city of Ishinomaki, the region severely hit by the earthquake in Japan last March. Many special items, including the nose cone of the 150th Italia, the F1 car with the famous “Gambare Nippon” message displayed at the opening Grand Prix of 2011 season in Melbourne were auctioned to raise over 70 million yen (12 million yen was raised by the Ferrari Owners Club of Japan) which will be used to build two after-school facilities.

Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa were at hand after the Japanese Grand Prix to unveil the car and do their part for the charity auction:

The perfect place to try out a new Italian supercar and to understand what’s it all about is southern Italy, preferably Sicily. Apart from the amazing twists and bends of the coastal roads, it’s the feel of the place that gets you and helps you realize why the Italians are so good at this sorta things! Check out Ferrari test driver Raffaele De Simone and the new 458 Spider as they do some soul searching after the jump.

Ferrari released an official driving footage of the new 458 Spider with Fernando Alonso at the wheel. The Formula 1 champ takes the car for a spin around the factory in Maranello. Indeed you get a demo of the new roof which currently holds the record for the fastest folding hardtop. Maybe it’s just me, but I think the coupe is prettier.

And here’s a bonus, the Spider’s world premiere highlights:

Cam Shaft Premium Wrapping this time picked a Ferrari 458 Italia for its project and tried to make it look cooler.

Job done, we think. The roof is wrapped in a kinda chrome film and so are the side skirts and front and rear aero parts and diffuser. They have also smoked the lights to make the car look more aggressive.

The attention to details in this car is amazing, as they have even covered the brake discs in with black lacquer to make the yellow calipers pop!

To go with the awesome styling, Cam Shaft has also used Rennsporttechnik 2.999 euros ECU kit to tune the engine and raised the power from 570 to 588 hp and 562 Nm of torque. It’s not much, but hey.

A few days ago Underground Racing unveiled their twin-turbo Ferrari 458 with 700 rwhp output. It was superb. Now Heffner Performance has come up with a similar package, which on pump gas generates 820 HP / 700 whp. Both of these kits are the tuners first crack at the 458. More powerful programs are already in the works.

Check out Heffner’s 458 after the jump.

Underground Racing’s twin-turbo kit for the divine Ferrari 458 Italia is now ready. And in its stage 1 form it offers 700 rear-wheel horsepower on pump gas. The savage acceleration and the whistle of the turbos are the clues that indicate this is no ordinary 458. But eve more amazing than the car itself, is this promo video they’ve made for it. It is superb! Professional filming and editing enable you to really feel the brutal performance of the machine.

Check it out after the jump. And stay tuned for the inevitable 1000-hp version.

As you see in the picture above, there is a Ferrari 458 in the Cadillac CTS-V’s rear view mirror, and we all know what that means. Cadillac has been doing well recently, they announced a couple of new models and unveiled new concept cars like the ELR and the magnificent Ciel. But they seem to have got a bit carried away. Sure GM developed the Magnetic Ride Control, and then Ferrari took advantage of it in the 599 and then the 458, but to say the CTS-V Coupe is a better car than the 458 is like saying a Magnum 375 is better than a M4 Carbine machine gun. Pointless!

Check out the new CTS-V Coupe commercial after the jump.

As you know Forza 4 is just around the corner, so it’s a great time for Thrustmaster to market the new Ferrari 458 Italia steering wheel they made for Xbox 360.

This joystick wheel thingy with pedals and paddle shifters is modeled on the real car’s wheel, only smaller, and even has the Manettino on it. What’s a bit surprising is the $90 price tag. Usually Ferrari branded stuff are painfully expensive just because of the badge. Come to think of it, it might not be an officially licensed product after all! But we don’t know.

It’s cool gadget to have, if you are up to 16. But if you are older, you better avoid it, for your dignity’s sake!
