The Ferrari 458 Italia took the supercar world’s breath away with its breadth of abilities and looks, and now the convertible version, called the Spider, is going to make its way to the Indian marketplace. The roof is an aluminium unit that folds into the engine bay in 14 seconds. Aerodynamics were optimised so that the car’s occupants could have a normal compensation even at 200kph with the roof down – although we can’t imagine ourselves discussing much while hurtling down the road at that speed. Delivering all that fury is a read-mid mounted 4.5-litre V8 engine with 562PS that feeds the rear wheels through an automatic gearbox. Top speed is over 320kph. And as if the hardtop’s wail wasn’t evocative enough, the convertible’s noise has been tuned for even better aural enjoyment.
