All I gotta say is Wooooooooooooooo!!! I thought the Enzo and 599 were something. I think the 458 has 'em both beat! Very agile - very easy to handle. Holds a line like nothing I've seen. Moves side to side and maintains stability. Outstanding turning radius, you have to make a mistake to miss a turn.

Powerful, will run with the big boys (Ford GT LM, Citreon Race Car, etc...) Like a splash of white noise!

Perfectly balalnced! Did I mention stable.

Gotta try it if you haven't!:)
 
It is the best looking Ferarri if nothing else. I do think the Scuderia is better though, but only by a slight margin. I wasn't too impressed by the Enzo.
 
Probably in the top 2 best looking cars in the game. Also do not max tune it, like all ferrari's it messes them up.
 
I think it feels the same as the F430, still is an amazing car though. Anyone else thinks it looks like a duck besides me?
 
I prefer my 430 Scud(although I need a good tune for it). The 458 is a great car as well. I have mine painted in Rosso Dino, off the 512BB, it looks great in my opinion:drool:

The Enzo slips and slides but I think it has it's advantages and some time in the future will experiment with it.

Yeah, with the 599 tuning did not help it perform any better, so all I've done to the 458 is put some racing tires on.
 
I prefer the F40 when it comes to performance and the Scuderia in looks, but yeah, this car is great. I also had fun powersliding it in Cote d' Azur.
 
I love this car too, although I like the F430 a bit more (apart from the fact that it hits the rev limiter in 6th gear on La Sarthe:banghead:)
 
I have all the Ferraris except for the SP1, the F40 is my favorite.. you have to focus on everything with it to run smooth.. i like cars that establish that connection with their drivers, the 599 and F430 scud are my next favorites
 
I had my first 458 experience this weekend!!!

The 458 is by far (thusfar) my best car in my garage.

With the stock 458 I killed the Ferrari challange. With chip, suspension and rear wing the MR challanges was a breeze.

The 458 handles like nothing else. Quick, responsive and very stable.
 
Both 430 Scud and 458, quite possibly the best stock (non race) premium cars in GT5, the SLS surprisingly is a close match.
 
The Ferrari 458 Italia is one of the greatest cars on the planet. I do prefer the Ferrari F40 and Scuderia better though because they are purer cars.
 
Amazing car. Possibly my favourite on the whole game, looks great, goes well, handles pretty much perfectly and has an epic interior. Truely incredible. :drool:
 
Great car indeed. The 599 has underwhelming performance and the Enzo sucks, but the 458 Italia and 430 Scuderia are fantastic. The former is a little bit faster on the straights but they have the same cornering speed (or almost the same), while the latter is easier to drive. I still get slightly better lap times with the 458 Italia compared to the 430 Scuderia, but they're both awesome. Both also destroy the Lamborghini Gallardo LP-560-4 and Lexus LFA. I dislike those two.

Someone mentioned the F40? It's fun but doesn't stand a chance compared to the 458 Italia or 430 Scuderia in performance.
