Where Art and Technology Meet

You have to imagine that when the designers of today’s top sports cars set out to create their vehicles they aim for that sweet spot where art and technology meet in perfect harmony. They want their creation to be the fastest, most beautiful car on four wheels. Not an easy task. The thing is, many can dream a dream but only a few can bring it to fruition. The Ferrari 458 Spider is the synthesis of imagination and engineering rolled into one perfect driving experience.

Take a Closer Look

We’re giving you a closer look at one of these incredible cars at Elite Autos in Jonesboro, AR. This beautiful vehicle and many other exotic cars can found on their website, www.eliteautosllc.com.

Let There be Light

The Ferrari 458 Spider is a mid-engine convertible with a retractable hardtop that is an amazing feat of engineering. In just 14 seconds, the aluminum roof seamlessly slides back into place in front of the engine bay. Ferrari says that even speeding down the highway with the top down, you can still converse easily with the person sitting beside you.

Sound and Fury

The 458 benefits from the advances Ferrari made on the Formula One racetracks of the world. From advanced alloys used in the chassis to improved air flow over the engine, Ferrari pulls out all the stops. With a V8 Ferrari/ Maserati F136 engine, this car can reach a top speed of 202 mph. The sound and the fury of the 458 Spider is unmatched. This car does not promise speed with its throaty roar, it delivers.

Test Your Driving Skill

It’s not all about speed with the Ferrari 458 Spider. Not only will the 458 leave you in the dust when accelerating, it can corner on a rail. No need to strong arm this sports car to keep it on the road. The body creates 308 pounds of down force at 125 mph to keep it firmly on the road. Before you think that the “sport” has been taken out of this sports car, think again. While the 458 offers quicker response time than most cars in its class, it is still a car that will challenge you to test your driving skill.

Everything within Reach

The interior is a mixture of sparse and sublime. The seats, a carbon fiber back wrapped in buttery leather, make for a very comfortable ride even at high speeds. Just like a Formula One race car, all the instruments are within reach. The ignition button, wipers, horn and turn signals are all located on the steering wheel. Instead of the usual large computer screen in the dash, the 458 has two screens that flank the centralized tachometer, which displays vehicle stats, media and navigation. Everything is positioned to keep the driver’s eyes on the road.

Add Artwork to Your Bucket List

There are fast cars and there are beautiful cars and in the Ferrari 458 Spider you find both. If you want a car that will test your skill as a driver and still turn heads on the street then this is the car for you. The folks at Ferrari will certainly create other models in the future that rival the 458 Spider but face it; they came pretty close to perfection on this one. Put driving one of these sports cars on your bucket list right next to viewing the Mona Lisa at le Louvre … because simply put, the Ferrari 458 Spider is a work of art. DaVinci would agree.
