The first thought that automatically comes to mind when the name Ferrari is thrown about, is the color red. This connection most probably came from the fact that in the early 1990s, a staggering 85 percent of new Ferrari buyers bought their prancing horse in red. Although that number had dropped to 45 percent in 2010, there is still a special attraction to the color red on any automobile that comes out from the heart of Modena. Our spot for this tuesday is a one of a kind Ferrari 458 Spider in a unique shade of a common color.
What you are looking at here is a beautiful 458 Spider painted in the Rosso Focca. Those who follow Formula 1 closely will instantly recognize this shade of red from the Ferrari Formula 1 car from 2007. The paint itself is a multiple layer paint which is actually thicker than normal and is available as an option for the 458 Spider. This special car also has its grill in titanium rather than the standard black. As far as the 458 goes, its is a beauty among Ferrari's of yesteryears who looked like chopped up insects. Power for the 458 Spider comes from the same 4.5 L V8 from the 458 Italia and churns out 570 bhp. 0-100 km/h comes in 3.4 seconds and the car keeps going on to a top speed of more than 300 km/h.
