Description
History The Ferrari 488 marked a fundamental evolution in Ferrari's mid-engined V8 supercar heritage. Introduced in 2015 as the successor to the 458 Italia, it reintroduced supercharging to Ferrari's V8 range for the first time since the legendary F40. At the heart of the car is a twin-turbocharged 3. 9-litre V8 engine, offering exhilarating performance, razor-sharp throttle response and impressive efficiency. The 488 GTB, an acronym for Gran Turismo Berlinetta, perfectly blended Ferrari's sporty DNA with road-going refinement, setting a new benchmark in the segment. Developed based on Ferrari's Formula 1 and GT programmes, the 488 featured advanced aerodynamics, active systems and exceptional handling. It was acclaimed worldwide for its visceral power delivery, balanced dynamics and eye-catching design. With its perfect blend of innovation and tradition, the 488 became an instant classic and a model that marked the modern era of Ferrari.
Our Car This particular Ferrari 488 GTB is finished in the iconic Rosso Corsa with a beautifully appointed black leather interior and comfort seats, creating a striking contrast further enhanced by Giallo brake calipers and 20-inch forged wheels painted in matte grey. The result is a visual statement that is both aggressive and elegant. The specification includes all the most popular factory options, such as a suspension lift system for added convenience, a rear parking camera and front and rear parking sensors to facilitate manoeuvring, and an adaptive headlamp system for enhanced visibility. Inside, the car features electric seats for maximum comfort and the highly coveted carbon-fibre driving zone with LED shift lights, combined with a bright yellow rev counter and the iconic Scuderia Ferrari shields on the front wings, a symbol of Ferrari's sporting heritage. Meticulously maintained by Ferrari dealers throughout its life, the car benefits from the care of its previous passionate owners. It has been treated with a protective front paint film to protect it from stone chips, and has recently been fitted with new tyres and a brand new official Ferrari battery to ensure that it remains in pristine condition. It comes complete with both original keys, factory key card, official Ferrari battery charger, bespoke car cover and all service and maintenance booklets. With only 23, 300 kilometres under its belt, this is a truly exceptional example: driven with care, impeccably maintained and presented in an extraordinary configuration. One of the last Ferraris to offer raw mechanical excitement while integrating driving technology and modern comfort, it is a rare opportunity not to be missed.
