About this car
The 2018 Ferrari 488 Spider arrives in striking Nero DS 1250 paintwork over a Nero leather interior. Its mid-mounted 3.9L twin-turbo V8 produces 660 horsepower and drives the rear wheels through a 7-speed automatic transmission with F1-Superfast shifting. With 28,995 miles recorded, this convertible combines open-air motoring with the performance expected of a Ferrari flagship.
Key equipment includes a power-retractable hardtop with wind blocker and glass rear window, adaptive suspension, ceramic disc brakes with yellow calipers, and a sport exhaust system. The cabin features full electrical sport bucket seats with embroidered Prancing Horse headrests, a carbon-fiber steering wheel with LED shift lights, special stitching, and a yellow tachometer counter. Driver-focused technology comprises a navigation system, Apple CarPlay, a harman/kardon audio setup, front and rear parking sensors, and automatic climate control with dual zones.
Additional visible details encompass Scuderia Ferrari Shields, carbon-fiber central bridge, carbon-fiber driver zone with LEDs, carbon-fiber rear air ducts, rain-sensing wipers, heated power door mirrors, remote keyless entry, and 20-inch forged painted alloy wheels. The car rides on performance tires sized 245/35YR20 front and 305/30YR20 rear, with a limited-slip differential and variable valve control completing the powertrain specification.

The Ferrari 488 GTB, introduced in 2015 as a successor to the 458 Italia, was produced until 2019. Approximately 13,000 units were manufactured, making it relatively common among modern Ferraris, though specific variants and configurations enhance rarity for collectors. This mid-engine sports car marked Ferrari's return to turbocharging for its V8 lineup, featuring a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that delivers 661 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. It achieves 0-60 mph in just 3.0 seconds and a top speed of over 205 mph, showcasing impressive performance for its era.
For exotic car collectors, the 488 GTB holds appeal due to limited-run variants like the 488 Pista, introduced in 2018 with enhanced performance and track-focused design, producing 710 horsepower. While not as rare as some classic Ferraris, the 488 GTB has seen steady value retention, with low-mileage examples and special editions commanding premiums. Its historical significance lies in blending turbocharged efficiency with Ferrari’s signature driving dynamics, bridging the gap between the naturally aspirated past and modern engineering. Well-documented maintenance and original condition are critical for investment potential in this model.
