Here’s something to keep you busy for the rest of the weekend, you know, if you have nothing better to do, in which case we are really sorry.
This is the online configurator for the Ferrari 458 Italia, the drop-top version of the divine 458, which comes with a folding hard-top and a different rear design as a result of that.
Traditionally, the drop-top Ferrari that follows a GT model is nowhere near as good as the coupe. But people who have tried the new Spider will tell you that for the first time you should choose the open top version, because it’s so bloody good.
That’s great, but we still think the coupe is prettier. That said, it’s like saying Charlize Theron is prettier than Cameron Diaz.
The 458 Spider’s configurator is very well designed and very feature-rich, which is interesting because most of the people who will try it are actually those who cannot afford one. The people who can afford a Spider are usually very busy and can’t be bothered to fiddle with a website for hours. They prefer to visit the showroom and have the salesman do the job.
Still, if you want to have a go, here it is: Ferrari 458 Spider Configurator
