The car comes with Pilot Sport 4 S tires.

@fahadkhalid69446 жыл бұрын
Absolutely. Porsche 911 does what the ferrari does only a little bit better and does it at all times and in all seasons. It costs considerably less and is of higher quality. Porsche makes a 500hp Gt3 for people who like RWD and more track focused machine. I sometimes dont know what these people are talking about. Salomondrin recently ran a ferrari 488 against huracan and 675LT and the times were dangerously close. This ferrari can not possibly be faster than a 911 turbo on laguna seca. Porsche puts its power down much better than the ferrari.
@w-james92776 жыл бұрын

I think subjective rating independent of price is super important. I want to know exactly how each car feels and which people enjoy more. It's super easy to judge the valve myself based on the results and the prices. It's not like there is really anything at stake with finishing order, it's just a ranking. Who cares if expensive cars win, I expect them to win, they cost more. I want to know if they are worth it because often they are not. The fact that the 718 came in second is a good example of highlighting just how good that car is even compared to more expensive and more powerful options. Now if only it sounded better.

Except that Ferrari won't allow you to do an independent test if you don't let them tune the car for the track. If you do get a Ferrari without their permission and test it on your own, not only you can get blacklisted from Ferrari, the owner of the car that lent it to you will also be barred from purchasing any more Ferraris from their official dealers. Yeah, it shows that they really care.

This is the First Street model that DOES perform well on the track. As for not fair...it costs alot more than most cars MT tested here...so it shoudl do Well. It's not the fastest, actually down in 4th place in lap times, Only 1.32 sec faster than the AMG GT R/ 1.37s faster than the Z06. This 488GTB is still 3.03 sec SLOWER than the ACR Viper. I have NO doubt the Lambo performante will beat the 488 GTB on this track...Once MT testes it here.

For price then I think they should've brought in the 675 lt or atleast the 650s since they are direct competitors. I agree with you that it should be faster, but don't think it should be that much faster than the 2nd place car

Were the customer cars that set faster acceleration times than what the press cars did also "tuned specifically to set a faster time"? This press car bullshit is so tiresome.. Get a tinfoil hat people.

I am so sorry, but it seems that Motor Trend got very happy because Ferrari decided to lend them a 488 so they rewarded them with the best car of the year award. It just so happens that in Car a Driver Lightning lap the AMG is a second faster over a longer lap, so I'd imagine that Ferrari mechanics were all over the 488 until the squeezed that lap time!

Car & driver doesn't use a Professional driver...so the time difference is the lack of skill in the driver...NOT the car. What you are really saying is that if you aren't a great driver...you'd be faster in the AMG.

@kiminita6 жыл бұрын
Even though I believe that they do use a professional driver. What do you make of Nurburgring times, where AMG is 11 seconds quicker! And almost forgot, if they don’t use a professional driver, than is the same driver for both cars, in it?!
@JerseyMikeP6 жыл бұрын
When the times are ran by magazines/independently tested at the RING...then they will matter. Almost every manufacturer that runs their is cheating. And the proof is when a car is ONLY fast there and Sucks everywhere else (Nissan GT-R is a Great example). The ring favors cars the are quick accelerating...allows them to make up for less than Ideal handling. Also USA spec. cars are very different from euro spec cars. People that are so HOOKED UP on Nurburgring times(don't live in the USA) should be on a German/UK car magazine site and NOT Motor trend. Motor trend only tested showroom stock/USA Spec cars.Sport auto was the only magazine I've heard of testing there. The Nismo GT-R is slower than ANY Model Viper and slower than the ZL-1 1LE in STOCK USA spec. which is just sad.

The overpriced service and depreciation in the first 3 years... for a "special car" is heartbreaking. Forget the badging and history, etc. Just look at the car itself for what it is.

@eduardoguzman556 жыл бұрын
Not hating on your opinion, but you need to understand 1 thing. The people who buy these cars have "unlimited" money, so the multiple cars vs this ferrari isn't really an issue to them as they will already own multiple cars. The ferrari would be to them merely "just another car"
@d1pz96 жыл бұрын
People who can afford supercars dont worry about the the service cost and gas mileage, and if you buy a unlimited production supercar and expect it to not depreciate its value, you are unfamiliar with how things work. And also in general, if you have to calculate the money you will spend on your car, you dont have enough money to own it. Simple.
@ChrisDorgan6 жыл бұрын
What depreciation? Get a Spider and they're still all going over book. Go for a Cali T or something then yea you're gonna lose about 30 - 50k in the first year if you buy brand new. Service costs are included in a service pack & there's 7 years warranty on them... so actually the maintenance costs are pretty much the same as any other car sports car.
@ChrisDorgan6 жыл бұрын
No they don't, I know a quite a few people that have worked real hard & got to a point in life and said "bucket list", they've saved and they buy the car they want. Yes they may have multiple cars in the sense that they have a daily or something but they certainly don't have "unlimited" money and it's certainly not a case of just another car. In most cases it's their absolute pride and joy. They drive them and they love them. Yes there's always the tools that have more money than sense i.e I once heard a guy - after he over took three cars and smashed all their windscreens and then his got smashed by someone else (roads weren't best quality), people were absolutely fuming as you can imagine - he goes oh I don't know what you're bothered about, I'll just get a new one in summer. He drove a Lambo Avio. He's the kind of toxic super car driver but in reality if you speak to most of the guys, they're pretty humble about it and they big big car guys that have finally got to where they wanna be in life!

Are you kidding me, this is the car with the number one laptop time? You can't trust a Ferrari review or lap times because they control those stuff and don't like their cars coming in anything but 1st place. Kinda makes no sense that this is first place because the 488 is a full 11 seconds slower than the AMG Gt-R in the Nurburgring. Where's the Lamborghini performante or the Mclaren 720s?
@SuperGeronimo9996 жыл бұрын
Yawn... first of all, it has been different drivers. 2nd of all, it has been 10,08 seconds, not a "full 11 seconds". Third of all, Nurburgring is different to Laguna Seca. Viper ACR holds the record at Laguna Seca, being over a second faster (1:28,65) than the Porsche 918 (1:29,89) yet it went 7:01,30 on the Nordschleife. Porsche 918 did it at 6:57. Why? Because its a different track, and a different driver.

Andrice Parker, i know it would help you sleep at night if you think the 488 was on racing slicks when it won. Wrong bud, even if they arent customer available tyres, they are MPSC2, the tyre the Turbo S, GT3RS, AMG GT-R all use. So before you call foul, just ask yourself why the german cars are all on semi slicks first. Danielson Gomes, you mean the sport auto test? The same sport auto that have a bias beyond belief towards German cars? The same sport auto that put the turbo s as faster than the 488 even though the fezza is faster on every track? Its german bias bro. You cant trust em
