Ferrari 458 Italia Review

[15LFA]

wow ferrari is amazing...it gives me passion to buy a car like that... O.O

[Youcareaboutthis]

Dear Santa......

[TheDevindre]

i have a question

is it possible to drive the car every day and do you`re normal daily shopping with it ??

[sawyerbobby]

This is the only American car review that I like, TopGear US fails.

[pangratata]

Very entertaining review mate - from England.

[dwcastleman89]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor @~1:00. Nice

[Voshaunsmith]

best fucking ferrari of our generation

[Chachisousa1090]

what happens if the passenger wants to change music? Just wondering. i myself could care less about a radio lol

[NathanielShapiro]

Pagani

[yunggoonedd13]

ferrari barely puts radios in their cars, except the california -_-

[AdRiAniiiiiiiJeFfReY]

Squirrel

[61297kenny]

the radio is on the right hand side were the speedometer is at, you got to turn it on through the menu the c.d player is in the dash bored. im ony 14 and figured that out, <3 ferrari 458!

[GiveMeABloodyUser]

that quote about michael schumacher.. was stolen from Jeremy Clarkson show on the 430. lol

[GiveMeABloodyUser]

3.3? i thought its 3.4 sec

[alexfromarchitecture]

put the sound at 720p at 0:49, big difference

[lamorsa92]

0:46 - 0:56 actually raises the hair on the back of my neck..i love that car

[KreatorOfDeath1985]

Trunk didnt close at :41!!!

[msnyder622]

As of the 1:00 mark I am now deaf...

[binh360]

I once commented on this car for it's lack of

Audio. Someone responded that you do not need a radio when you have that awesome engine sound. I don't know about you but I tired of listening to the same tunes over and over.

[woobusmallard]

Does anyone know if the Car Show on Speed Network

was cancelled?

[Davide888]

The Ferrari 430 is a $1000 a day less :)

[11KAB11]

This is my dream car right here. Not a car in the world I would take over this!

[TitanSubZero15]

Smuggled Russian FTW!!!

[GiveMeABloodyUser]

@TitanSubZero15 hahah no he spoke spanish

[Ms9piece]

this car was on transformers 3

[xRoflCoptoRx]

Holy shit I've ridden my bike where you rode that machine...fuck I'm poor D:

[critcole]

so if you rented this car for 100 days...

[KungFu350]

just wow... <3

[Acidicheartburn]

As I've never seen or heard this car in real life, I had never liked the sound this car makes until I watched this video just now.

[AugFTW]

I saw one of these on the road today. It was awesome.

[Dynasty9916]

What kind of watch is he wearing? It has the Rolex Submariner look, but does anyone know the exact model?

[DanielWEWO]

dude i want your fucking job

[sofleye23]

This is the best engine sound ever!!! 0:46

[xXBurntBaconXx]

if i ever saw that 142mph thing, i would try to beat it.

[RollerCoaster107]

Great review. ;)

[xlee888]

Why'd you have to slam that hood?!! Poor car.

[Thegoodshit1]

0:41, didn't close the hood right

[bengaLroyalty]

He forgot to review the part where it transforms into an Autobot

[spo0ons]

lol at Derrick D

[xxxxdarksidexxxx]

new favorite card in the world period.

[mitchdaytonam3]

430 Scud and 360 Stad didn't have a manual either...

[unclepic1]

@mitchdaytonam3 Yes, but the standard models their based off of did...

[mitchdaytonam3]

@unclepic1 Yeah, they standard ones did, and the ones I mentioned didn't!!!... If you listen carfully he says, "This is only the second Ferrari in history not to be offered with a manual transmission, the first was the Enzo" Well, that's wrong, the 360 Stad and 430 Scud only had F1, I don't care about the standard 360 and 430, they're not the same cars!

[unclepic1]

@mitchdaytonam3 well agree to disagree

[TheSmokingTire]

@mitchdaytonam3 Um, yes they are. Both the Challenge Stradale and Scuderia are sub-models of the 360 and 430 respectively. Just because you think they are separate models doesn't exactly make it true. 

[AJLJR77]

I have to have one!

[colenbrak]

the italian s2000

[fasthonda]

Animal Killing Spree! Killtrocity!

[UchihaNawaf]

I have a Question

is there a raido in this car or usb port or anything that you can hear music from ?

(without the engine music of course)

[TheSmokingTire]

@UchihaNawaf Yes, of course. There is a radio, cd player, satellite navigation, and an ipod input.

[UchihaNawaf]

@TheSmokingTire ok cool (like I'm gonna buy it now XD lol )

thanks :)

[jesusoro707]

@UchihaNawaf Anyone who even thinks about having a radio in a Ferrari does not deserve one... all you need to hear is the beautiful symphony of the engine

[UchihaNawaf]

@jesusoro707 just asking man !

i mean whos on earth will buy a Ferrari and doesnt hear its music !?

but sometimes you'll need to hear something else !

I mean I have 2011 Camaro ss i dont like to hear music a lot I like the engine sound

of course there is no Comparison but you know XD

anyways I was Curious :)

[Noleafunburned]

you guys should review a supercar on the autobahn

[namybot]

I have herd many Americans say Ferrari 4-58.

While over in Europe we say Ferrari 4-5-8

[shobin05]

@namybot you mean, top gear calls it 4-5-8 and some other people call it 4-58..

[namybot]

@shobin05 No i mean the entire content Europe calls it the 4-5-8.

America tends to call it the 4-58.

I don't mind though, nothing wrong with saying that.

[aurox07]

what a beauty, I wanna...I wanna marry her

[KMG5402]

This guy clearly knows nothing about cars and shouldn't be reviewing them. Sorry champ.

[MNMaveRick]

No way an sls beats a 458! Slower to sixty and can't touch the top speed. Rides like a truck and the doors are just dumb.

[AnalogVenture]

@MNMaveRick The doors are an homage to the old gullwing. They are NOT dumb. I do prefer the 458 as well, though.

[shobin05]

this is only my second time watching the smoking tire and this is what i think of it..

the smoking tire > motor trend > TG US

best car show from usa? Definitely...as long as this guy is reviewing..

[twansnipro]

i need to go and make some money! love the ride! great vid.!

[8wealthyone8]

gtr will smoke this think every time. and cost 1/5 of cost!

[powderhund14]

@8wealthyone8 except u will have 1/10000000000 as much fun... yeah id rather sell all of my belongings and sell my family into slavery and buy the ferrari... its really that good

or keep the family and buy a cayman r hahahaha

[8wealthyone8]

@powderhund14 hmm may be may be not. fact is you'd see my smoke after red lights gone... every time. ta bless

[shobin05]

@8wealthyone8 im sorry but you cant compare a datsun to a ferrari...its fast and cheap but its not even a true drivers car...people who buy ferraris arent because they wanna save money and be faster than the next guy, they buy it for the experience, and a lot will tell you the experience is priceless..

[crashlove768]

@8wealthyone8 a 911 turbo smokes both

[dogg2727]

"I'm on an animal killing spree but I did miss that one" lol...loved that

[GCOUNDOU]

service is now covered by ferrari, 7 years, unlimited miles!!

[Steve2323ZX]

you should have drove the car through the turn pike like in the Sopranos intro

[baseballfinatic8]

Yo i live in new jersey and I know exactly where he's driving thats right under the george washington bridge

[CropDuster33]

wait like 5 years and every american car will have this technology... mabey not the reliability... but still

[hajduktyson]

Where is the radio hidden?

[TheSmokingTire]

@hajduktyson within the LCD screens in the instrument binnacle. It's controlled by buttons on the back of the steering wheel.

[Drskuxxxdeluxxx000]

double penetrations old now triple penetration at the back!!

[KOOL2011]

What a way to show how big the trunk is hahaah

[Drskuxxxdeluxxx000]

@KOOL2011 with an iillegal russian :D

[KOOL2011]

@Drskuxxxdeluxxx000 xD lol

[choyero67]

squirrel 3:42!

[cappyvito]

Farah incorrectly states that the horsepower jump from the F430 to the 458 (from 483 to 562) is the largest in Ferrari history. Strange that he'd make this error since there was a larger jump just one generation earlier, from the F360 to the F430 (400 to 483).

[TheSmokingTire]

@cappyvito good spot. I said "horsepower jump," but I should have said "increase in performance." This is the kind of shit that happens when I don't write scripts.

[96ToxicAvenger]

@TheSmokingTire or when you have people with OCDs who you must explain everything in detail to...LOL welcome to YouTube...BTW lovelove love The Smoking Tire...

[longmonths1]

@TheSmokingTire What car would you have for around the ferraris price and why?

[acalvendia]

ferrari 599 gto period

[Warrantti]

Look at he optional extras on this car 6:32

Electrically operated seats 3463 dollars !

Bit of paint on brake calibers 1339 dollars !

[TheInvisibleCommment]

ugly rims :/

[MrGTR1988]

I am Russian TOO LOL

[salchipapa8000]

does any one know where the spot in the beginnign of the clip is in jersey ? and also what backroad was he using through out the vid ? thanks ! :D

[banginlikea747]

@salchipapa8000 That's just north of the GWB. Probably a backroad in the Alpine/Palisades area. 

[salchipapa8000]

@banginlikea747 i was just thinking that as well, every time i cross over the GWB i notice this little place that looks similar, thanks !

[Doffingnik]

such a beautiful car

[elr456]

That is the sexiest Ferrari ever.

[Xsalvaz]

Squirrel!!!!!!!! Hey there....

[Noway778]

i was going for this car...But the mpg was very bad so i passed it. 

[abcdefg10420]

my mercedes sls can smoke that anyday, it may cost.... like alot but it is worth it

[LeetModz]

@abcdefg10420 doubt you have a sls lol

[bmancodgta4]

@abcdefg10420 theyre pretty even but actually 458 is a little quicker

[clix089]

@abcdefg10420 maybe in a drag race.

[rmcld]

@abcdefg10420 it cant, not even in a drag race HAHAHA

[vvysoc]

@abcdefg10420 do u really...that is so expensive

[BeNNstAh]

ferrari california was also available only with an automatic, and in the california, the gearbox is actually set to start in full auto, instead of in sequential, which it does in all other automatic ferraris

[Gkmadders]

when he slams the hood I thought I was going to be sick. if you cant respect it don't drive it.

[TiggleProductions]

I had to turn my volume down at 0:48

[CoolCarCompilations]

The sound! jezus! And it shifts so freaking fast!

[EVOLUTIONIXHUN]

Derek D, hows that? :D

[Majadi7]

Lets check out that engine, Peter theres only a drawing of an engine !!! hahahaa

[rohanmnbvc]

Thanks guys the beat review of any car awsome dude

[rowsdower12]

This car is sooo bonerville.

[BreezyHawk]

The 458's sound is totally orgasmic!

[LarryArtsProduction3]

I know this car as Mirage/Dino in Transformers: Dark Of The Moon, and I must say, it is quite badass!

[Johnsonprod]

Ferrari 458 Italia or Lamborghini Aventador ????

[rikwatson200]

@Johnsonprod as fast as they both are, they really are two different classes of car. Ones a mid level gallardo rival, the other is a nuclear bomb with wheels and a seat

[Johnsonprod]

@rikwatson200 Well i'm not so sure about that !! Of course the aventador has much more power but i'm talking about fun. I'm pretty sure that you can get much more fun with the ferrari ones. I haven't tried yet but i think a test is required ! And btw the 458 Italia is also a nuclear bomb with wheels =) hahaha

[Blackhawksfan1993]

vin diesel?

[815algenis]

That squirrel must have been the one that dodged a lamborghini, damn its quick.

[MrYFrost]

From 0 to Boner in 2.1 Seconds

[342Hbk]

LOL Ruf Rgt is better and Bugatti Veyron Bugatti rulez

[tranquility922]

Nice thorough review. Great job.

[The0rangePanda]

VLAD YOU MADE IT TO US AND A

[DrivingSimulatorTV]

Beautiful car

[RayzaBlayz]

0:42 omg be gentle closing the trunk.. this is a ferrari not a suzuki

[bismillahmashallah]

2,500 a day is 1% ? that fucking expensive in just 100 days they can get the price of the freakin car... wth lol that terrible

[lsmith1981]

Thie Junk Car is Growing on me now..I almost got Hit by one in Hong Kong lol...

[SuperLuigiGalaxy242]

I WANT HIS JOB NAO!!!!

[DonRMB]

If you are going to smuggle a Russian.. Why would it be a GUY?.. Russian Girls are the way to go bro.

[vetteburna]

I may be wrong but I'm almost sure the breaking technology that you've mentioned was developed by Porsche not too long ago, Ferrari only adapted the concept to its 458.

[DerpModegaming]

How did you get from Russia to u.s. in the car. Im confused ig uess it's so badass it floats :D

[theonlylolking]

@DerpModegaming When in russia you go north and go across the north pole and ice and then you get over to canada and then you drive though canada and get to the USA.

[DerpModegaming]

@theonlylolking ahahaha such a simple explination for a dumb question.

[kevinbollers2]

I only use my 458 italia when i need to do some extra Russian smuggling, nothing does the job better.

[lcsxwtian]

I'll trade it with both of my kidneys. Give it to me now.

[sybrande]

haha, love how you say scuderia. SCU DER EEE YA

[chrisluvjh]

actually the 458 is bigger than the 430...

[Squidpowerful]

sounds amazing



[ThePrototype27602]

3:43 OOOHHHH A SQUIRREL. lol, this guy's great. Definitely subscribing.

[AVP5342]

0:49 HOLY CRAP!!! THAT FREAKED ME OUT

[highlyporsche]

God that car sounds great

[skateboarderaddict]

The only flaw in this car that i see is that the speedometer and the gps are on the same screen and cant be on two diffrent screens at the same time so you can know how fast your going but not where you are and you can know where you are but not how fast your going... if im wrong please reply to this

[vindow21]

@skateboarderaddict yeah i used to think so because of stupid Top gear. and like that is the dumbshit ever. but you do know you speed when you are using the GPS. You get a read outs of your speed on the screen and not a regular speed meter type thing but you get just numbers...like 124, 125,125, 126 mph

[cappyvito]

@skateboarderaddict - There is actually a small digital speedo on the bottom of the left-hand LCD (which shows the status of the diff, TC, tires, brakes, etc), so you always have a speedo even if the right-hand screen is in navigation mode.

[FallenKingKong]

How do you get ahold of these cars!

[SaveNurburgring]

Good things come little by little , so is great when they come by a lot like in this car and the prices are huge , but for this car offers are really small .

[Jorg3nFCB10messi]

the sound of that car ö beautiful ..

[GODZKID007]

Good clear video here Matt, but the price is not that cheap, to add to my car collection I'm about to buy a new 2011 Ferrari 458 which cost $359.000, I sat in one the other day and my head does not hit the roof being 6'6ft 235 pounds, there is even room for me. Once again great clear video..God Bless.

[ZoorGoo11]

good review..

[broloda]

I think it's crazy to pay $250,000 for a four wheel motorcycle.

[pdavid24]

Hmm gotham dream cars......Rob let you take it out? Nice!

[xDAngelo1x]

Whoa that's a squirel!

[Regret696]

Love the 458 <3

[unclepic1]

Actually $245,000 sounds way to cheap I was up at Ferrari of Central New Jersey and the dealer said after all options and tax and premiums and what not the average price is around +$300,000

[Jesse22H]

As fast as the new 458 italia is....

we all know a squirrel is faster. can't argue with that logic.

[ForzaFerrari47]

@madjh8 funny part is the ferrari is only a v8 and is great and lambos car will get beat when the enzo replacment comes out

[GenericUth]

I've always enjoyed driving or riding anything that requires a helmet. This is certainly an exceptional piece of engineering, but I think I'd rather rent or buy a new generation Ariel Atom. Or a Lotus 2/11 even though it's not as fast. Or any home built track car.

[DvvdJD]

"Woah that's a squirrel". Haha xD

[ericpaulsen2112]

matt is such a bro

[m1tch74]

Im just going to put it out there that this was a great review!! i usually hate American reviews but this dude had it ALL covered. I love that there was talk about real world performance, and that all the controls were covered rather than just the maniettino switch. Usually these cars are just taken to the track, in the real world they are driven on the roads so...

Thank you, and well done!!

[OneGuitarGuy]

You can tell a car guy by how much he (or she) giggles when accelerating fast.

I know I let out a giggle when I floor my mustang. The girlfriend rolls her eyes and I smiler wider

[hkmup150]

thumbs up for giggles



[cryspyfast]

love the reviws.. but when you laugh its creepy

[wildbloodydragon]

At 0:47, I thought, man, it's 3:54 in the morning, my mom's asleep, maybe I should turn it down....

Nahh..

[madjh8]

When will you try the new Lamborghini aventator? If ferrari do some thing good, some month lateer Lamborgini presents onother one better than the ferrari. The aventator is much faster, it made 0-100km/h in only 2.9 sec

[mihalachedoru]

pretty awesome review... I like it a lot
