So then, earn 80k a month doing engineering wrong??

You'll be right on this then.

The Ferrari 458 Monte Carlo has been confirmed ahead of its official debut at the IAA Frankfurt motor show. As the Ferrari 458 Speciale. And, following the traditions set down by the previous 360 Challenge Stradale and 430 Scuderia, adheres strictly to the template for Berlinetta-and-a-bit philosophy, with the standard 570hp 4.5-litre V8 boosted to 605hp, active aero, a 90kg weight saving, 0-62 in three dead and 0-125mph in 9.1 seconds.

Only the front photo loaded earlier but looking at it now the side and rear aren't bad but the front looks like its pulling a funny face. Maybe in real life photos it would look better.

Always had a soft spot for these. First dibs.

In all honesty though, lose the stripes!

134.44bhp per litre of displacement.

Bolt on EP3 with cams etc 130-135bhp per litre of displacement, so not really that impressive.

show me an EP3 with 135bhp per litre that's come out of the Honda factory with a full warranty, or do you not understand the difference between production vehicles and modified after market ones? :scratch:

So much rage :lol:

Was just a simple fact of bhp per litre, who care's how an engine came out of the factory im just not that impressed with the output of the Ferrari considering its supposed to be a supercar manufacturer.

Anyway just noticed that the original engine made 570bhp or 126.67bhp per litre so it has been modified from the original spec.
