Ferrari 458 Speciale vs. Ferrari 488 Pista in South Africa / The Supercar Diaries

[@robertpomfret561]

Proper dream car this 458 is, those gold wheels are perfection!

[@user-gl2eq2ly4g]

What a lineup!!!! ...... It just needed a nice 355 at the far end

[@goodnewsmusic.5638]

I've been waiting all week to see this line up. Love it brother! The sounds those flat-plane-cranks make are just beautiful 😀👏🏼👏🏼

[@AG2377]

GREAT!!! My favourites are the 430Scuderia and 458Speciale because these engines have no turbos. And the golden rims.....beautiful!👍🏻REAL POWER!!!😉

[@74SD455TA]

Right on with the exception of the gold wheels...not for me.

[@stfu6397]

just amazing that 458 Speciale

[@FerrariLBC]

I put a Novitec Inconel valveless exhaust on our Pista, and it TRANSFORMED the sound. Just phenomenal compared to stock. Now considering sport cats. Truly great having the Ferrari flat plane howl again.

[@dans4316]

I agree with you the sound of an Italia running through your spine is mind blowing

[@azmilkais]

Ferrari has always been my favorite brand which even though I cannot afford the car at the moment I'm happy I have purchased Puma Ferrari t shirts, Ray-Ban Ferrari sunglasses, Ferrari perfumes just because I love the brand so much and one day before I close my eyes I will own one Ferrari car. From Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

[@bacolando]

You're a sucker if you keep buying overpriced clothes, perfumes etc. Save your money and invest it instead of word jizzing on KZbin hoping to one day owning a Ferrari.

[@DB-fn3fz]

@@bacolando I've been buying rare Ferrari products (bath soaps, colognes, lighters, watches, owners manuals etc) since I was 14. I enjoy the products because they allow me to own a piece of the culture that the cars come from without buying the car itself. This inspires me to own a Ferrari one day. A person can be inspired by merchandise without being a "sucker". Clearly though, I would not expect someone of your arrogance and rudeness to understand anything beyond its monetary value.

[@bacolando]

@@DB-fn3fz You're definitely a sucker if you buy overpriced merchandise. So what are you doing with that inspiration of yours to be able to own one? You could've literally bought anything in the stock market with that money and tripled the money instead. So again, you're a sucker if you buy that stuff.

[@DB-fn3fz]

@@bacolando "what are you doing with that inspiration of yours to be able to own one?". This comment says you don't understand the reason for inspiration in the first place. If you're focused only on the money and don't invest in your soul then you will never be happy even if you reach your goal. What did/do I do with my inspiration?? I moved to Modena, Italy to study mechanical engineering at the faculty of engineering Enzo Ferrari and taught myself Italian so that I could learn more about the cars and cultivate my passion while getting an education that will later afford me the car but more importantly, afford me my dreams. I was never a great student and hated school before I studied in Italy but going there gave me the drive to attain great success that I might not otherwise achieve. You refer to the stock market like it's a videogame. The market is a very cut-throat place to put your money in, and to thoroughly understand it to the point of leveraging substantial wealth, let alone enough wealth to buy a Ferrari, takes a very long time, especially with less than $50k initial capital. Not only this but it is much less rewarding than working a meaningful job and steals meaning from your life. Investing and diversifying your assets is important but there is no get-rich-quick financial model that doesn't require tremendous sacrifice. I know people who own Ferraris who are way too miserable to be able to appreciate them and have them exclusively for the attention they bring. That's not happiness or success. That is the path of someone who follows only the money like you suggest. You will never make it to the age of 30 and be happy if you don't stay inspired in life. I highly doubt that guy is walking around with his Ferrari shades and colognes acting like he owns a Ferrari and trying to trick people. From an engineering and art point of view, they are beautiful cars, and it's very easy to be inspired by the brand.

[@mpsko9259]

You might be in luck! I know that there are websites that let you buy older Ferraris for under $100k. You will be giving up some luxuries of modern day cars, but in the end it’s worth it to walk out to your garage and see YOUR Ferrari in the garage, rather than some Prius or a Camery

[@user-bc9tp6tu4b]

Best cars best show ever novitec is the goat I remember the supercharged white 430

[@ajithjames.]

All time great sounding cars

[@mfanasibilimanonankosi778]

There's something special that Frank Stephenson did when he designed the age-less F430, absolutely stupendous!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@bits2646]

F430... still my favorite and probably forever...

[@DB-fn3fz]

What I love about the 488 Pista is that in-cabin, it sounds a lot like an F40 LM or F40 GTE. It might be turbo'd but it's got plenty of theater, unlike the standard 488 and F8 Tributo.

[@TheCarKrazeOfficial]

I love these Ferrari episodes

458 Speciale 🤤🤤🤤 eargasm inducing

[@nicholaswoodward8191]

All lovely 360CS easily sounds the best!

[@rushyg1006]

The scud sound better👌👌👌

[@Dude-1689]

Where exactly in SA was this shot???

[@lesterwakens6392]

Franschhoek, Cape Town...🇿🇦🔥

[@6spdkeg]

458 Speciale is brilliant. Would love to own one.

[@Car10121-s]

Speciale sounds so good as standard.

[@regardt1238]

Question, did the car have a sticker on the windscreen that says “The Lawyer”?

[@bngr_bngr]

We just need all four cars together.

[@Koketso_Gololo]

Where in SA is this and yes I would have freaked if I came across this on the road

[@alangoh76]

Something not right about the microphone inside the car. Not doing the engine noise any good

[@veyron99ss]

Where's the Maserati MC20?....

[@thierrythierry5313]

FERRARI j'adore la 458 ma préférer le son une vraie mélodie merci de me faire rêver

[@CarToneHK]

The way you put on that 4 point harness worries me, always tighten the lower ones first, those should be snug to avoid submarining

[@docmarc36]

I love it

[@claudekelsey4277]

Heavy kwai!!

[@mikeingalsbee2959]

Do the lap belt first, then the shoulder straps. If you wrecked you would puke.

[@agustinliden6189]

Ferrari 488 Pista Sounds absolutly delicious🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@2006Vantage]

The owner let you drive all four of his lightweight specials and you didn’t upgrade him to the top kit for the Pista😳

I've seen them in S.A Johannesburg sandton🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

FORZA FERRARI

[@lawrence.centinales]

YUH

[@algustopovoas6148]

😮👍🙏🚗🛣

[@timmietz]

Great videos! So, the Speciale needs a full exhaust to sound on par with a stock Scuderia. And the Pista…still very underwhelming . 765LT over Speciale all day long.

[@suleymanbdm9999]

hhhhııırrrrr 😍🔥🔥🔥

[@VerangaF430]

Pista is definitely fast, but it doesn't feel desirable like the others..

[@tommy4862]

I disagree I think it sounds better than Speciale and it is beautiful and aggressive at the same time. The S duct in the front is genius. And I don't care about the speed, I'm sure the older models are fast enough, I would still pick Pista.

[@VerangaF430]

@@tommy4862 personally I don't think so, it has lost that Ferrari screaming sound up at the top... I prefer speciale styling over that too. I think it's the sweet spot. Yea speciale is fast enough that's why pista is irrelevant for me...

[@2006Vantage]

@@VerangaF430 Agreed and unfortunately one area where the reviewer did not focus at all is in terms of how they handle and starting with the Speciale they became a little bit numb as compared to the Scud and the CS. The Pista even more so. It seemed like he was rating just based on how the car accelerated and any entry level electric car in five years will be as fast as any of my sports cars. But that’s not why we buy such cars. In a world where everything will 0 to 60 in two seconds, I believe it will be the raw, emotional feel and connection that differentiates.

[@VerangaF430]

@@2006Vantage totally agree I think in that case I'll pick the scud as it's the perfect car. As it is the sweet spot I think when it comes to raw experiences. Just probably would put a novitec or a Capristo exhaust and you are good. 360cs is too raw and I heard the gear box shows its age where as the scud does not. It's got the later improved single clutch which is quite impressive.

[@VerangaF430]

@@2006Vantage wow i just checked your profile didn't even know you have a scud after I posted my reply lol
