The Ferrari 488 Pista

Mid engine V8's have been a huge success in Ferraris sporty models since their introduction in the Ferrari 308 in the 1970's. This V8 tradition has carried on to this day, becoming more powerful with every new model released. The Ferrari 488 Pista produces over 700 horse power and won the international engine of the year award, proving yet again that the V8 engine will remain a staple in Ferraris line up for many years to come. The Ferrari 488 Pista is the last edition in the 488 line up, and is the lightest and fastest edition, coming in at 200 pounds less than the 488 GTB which was made possible by immense amounts of carbon fiber through out the entire car. While the Ferrari 488 Pista was made with speed in mind, taking cues from their track variations, the 488 GTE and Challenge, the Pista also manages to be a very comfortable and luxurious drive with driver comforts such as ice cold AC, blue tooth, a rear view camera, and more. The Ferrari 488 Pista has combined the best of both worlds, with acres of power and the luxury and comfort you come to expect from the Prancing Horse brand.

The 488 Pista is one of my favorite Ferraris of all time. It's so beautiful and fast with a masterpiece of an engine.

[@MarcSob22]

Love the Pista!! Before I preferred the 458 Speciale, but after I drove the 488 Pista that belongs to a friend, with direct exhaust and with all electronic aids turned off, it is without a doubt one of the most fun and aggressive cars I have ever driven and I work with sports cars for almost 15 years

[@user-te4ck2jo4s]

Fantastic job. Really enjoyed learning a lot about the history of the naming of the cars. Keep up the great work

[@monty6545]

Another top presentation of a beautiful 488 thanks colleen !

458 pista: the final NA 488 pista: the final ICE only

[@anthonyromano6921]

yep....Pretty much down hill from here.

[@MarcSob22]

@@anthonyromano6921 no is not!! The Pista is way more fun and better than the Speciale, the F8 is great! The 296 and SF90 better and more fun than any normal Ferrari in the last few decades! Who say is downhill not drive the cars only see videos, i work with Ferraris since the 430 and now the cars are better than never more fun, more gorgeous

@@MarcSob22 well if we are taking about gas cars.

@@MarcSob22 I have driven all models from 308 up to 458, and have raced 360 challenge cars. Trust me things are changing.

How has this video had less than 10,000 views? It’s a tragedy. I guess KZbin aren’t pushing this channel, for some unknown reason?

[@mastercarclub]

The 488 Pista engine scared me at first time, crazy power on top revs, and very smooth transitions from the idle to the top, unbelievable work on these twin turbo engines to be so gentle exactly when you need. Really like your videos. 🏆

[@jamiedoughty6703]

This is my dream car, only in the Spider version.

[@benspiritas7050]

Ferrarisonline gorgeous car

[@adamluke1289]

You have quite a few photos of 'Sold' cars on your site... it would be great to hear you talk about some cars you had a chance to drive.

[@FerrarisOnline]

We have done a few podcasts on barnrinds and cars we have sold.... once we have a free minute we should do more.

[@bhargavs6092]

omg you know a lot of history

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Sweet car! Your pants matched the seats, nice touch.

[@kriskross63]

As always, absolutely amazing presentation! Thank you! Especially, I‘m loving your explanation of the „488“..😍

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

I definitely prefer the older Ferrari's, this car is cool though with some great tech features and amazing performance.

[@markhumberstone7068]

Great to listen to your thoughts on the Pista, I love mine but in a different way to my 458 Spider. Good video as always

[@TheFarmersLife]

That blue interior is subtly cool. Didn’t even notice until you mentioned it.

[@dans4316]

I’m not even done with the video and I hit the “LIKE” button 😂

Best comment yet. 😊

Tysm for all of your videos; I learn so much. Ty Ty Ty

[@Lester.M]

What a work of beauty!

[@BoStark]

That gold is nice, don't think I've seen it before on a Pista.

[@gregkarkowsky967]

I may be off the mark here but I'm picking up a slight vibe that you may kinda, sorta maybe a little bit like this car.

[@timgosling6189]

Technically not the most powerful mid-engined Ferrari V8, as the SF90 ICE beats it by 60bhp (plus of course the electric power too), but a mere 720 horses are surely enough! I love the Pista but I know a bunch of people who had one on order and were a little annoyed when the F8 Tributo, with the same power and improved tech and styling, was announced a year before they'd even got a delivery date for their now superseded cars. At least the effect on values has now stabilized. The dual-clutch F1 transmission actually came out with the first California in 2007 and then the 458, several years before the F12. Given the strong environmental movement in California I'm always slightly amazed that many drivers on the West Coast are so anti Auto-Stop. I remember when the air in LA and SF was literally yellow! It's not like a modern Ferrari isn't going to start back up!

[@mastercarclub]

Most powerful by the time it was announced 👍🏻

[@dusty7264]

Nice car 👍 I think Mclaren pushed Ferrari to step up there game. Lots of different Mclaren models and now lots of different Ferrari models.

[@michaelfraser5723]

Harry Metcalfe of Harry's Garage has similar thoughts about this 'track monster' .

Was the 488Pista available with sticky switches? LOL!!!

Did she pick out her pants to match the blue tinge leather in the car for this review?

[@chrisparker4940]

It’s hard to believe a Ferrari would have an auto start/stop feature to preserve gas. You are driving a high performance street race car. A Ferrari buyer doesn’t care about his fuel conservation…how annoying.

[@BubuBarong]

Actually the V8 in the SF90 Stradale is more powerful. Cheers from Italy
