2020 Ferrari 488 Pista Spider
Influenced by the 488 GTB and 488 Challenge, Ferrari unveiled the 488 Pista at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. This model boasts significant upgrades, including new camshafts, reinforced pistons, a larger intercooler, and Inconel exhaust manifolds derived from the Challenge series. These enhancements enabled the engine to deliver unforgettable performance at 8,000 rpm. Gear changes are swift at just 30 milliseconds while in race mode. The exterior redesign focuses on maximizing downforce over the front and optimizing clean airflow over the rear spoiler. To achieve weight reduction, Ferrari used carbon fiber and Alcantara throughout the Pista. As a result, the new model is 90 kilograms lighter than the standard 488, while providing 20 percent more downforce. The 488 Pista exemplifies Ferrari's commitment to performance and innovation, combining advanced aerodynamics with cutting-edge materials.
A few months later, at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Ferrari introduced the 488 Pista Spider. Remarkably, this open-topped variant weighs even less than its fixed-roof counterpart, making it the first Ferrari-badged road car to achieve this distinction. Additionally, the Pista Spider is Ferrari's 50th open model, continuing the legacy of performance and design excellence from Maranello.
A stunning example, as it is the highest-performing 488-series car from Ferrari, is this 2020 488 Pista Spider. Finished in Rosso Corsa with a full length extended white and blue racing stripe, this Pista features curvaceous and sexy lines that evoke the desire of even the purist. Exterior options include red brake calipers that peak through the 20-inch forged diamond wheels, Scuderia shields, and lightweight carbon fiber components.
The cockpit is trimmed in optional Nero Alcantara throughout with subtle hints of leather and carbon fiber. The seats are adorned with the Cavallino emblem stitched in the head rests, while there is a white and blue stripe that runs the full length and carries into the LED carbon fiber steering wheel, matching that of the extended exterior racing stripe. The LED carbon steering wheel is adorned with controls for everything from the suspension settings to the wipers, putting all critical functions at your fingertips, a nod to Ferrari's racing pedigree. The 488 comes with tech amenities such as an integrated navigation system and Bluetooth audio system with six-speakers placed throughout the cabin. Other interior items include Rosso seat belts and a parking camera.
Power is derived from a twin-turbocharged 3.9-litre V-8 engine that generates a thrilling 711 horsepower and 597 lbs-ft of torque. A seven-speed automatic gearbox is responsible for sending the power to the rear wheels and creating a 2.7-second 0 to 60 time. Performance wise, it is a worthy contender against any supercar, but don't just take our word for it. While in testing, Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson had this to say about the Pista, "One of the most exciting, thrilling, beautiful and satisfying cars ever made," further saying, "because the Pista is not just good. Or brilliant. It's way beyond that." High praise from a man that has driven just about every supercar and hypercar imaginable.
Accompanying the sale is a Ferrari tool kit and Ferrari Fix & Go sensor. Ordered new, well-optioned and always cared for as a favorite in the Lone Star Estate Collection, this 2020 488 Pista Spider is a wonderful and exhilarating supercar from the storied Italian firm, Ferrari.
