Here are videos from special event in Ferrari’s home town of Maranello in Italy to present its latest hot car to the press. Its a video of a selection of 458 Italia Spiders finished in various colors including the traditional red, yellow, black and what looks like a dark plum finish.
The roofless version of the mid-engine 458 utilizes a lightweight, aluminium retractable hardtop with Ferrari claiming that it offers a number of gains over the traditional folding soft-top, including a reduction of 25kg in weight and a deployment time of just 14 seconds.
The Spider is powered by the same naturally aspirated, direct-injection 4.5-liter V8 pushing out 570 ponies to the rear wheels as the tin-top model.
