Ferrari 458 Carbon

Ferrari is a name that is assosated with fast cars and a sleek design. The Italian car company not only sells cars to the general public but also has an active Formula one team that is always near the top of the standings.

 

Ferrari used technology and design from its Formula one expertise to create the F 458 the successor of the F 430.

 

The Ferrari 458 uses many carbon accessories that are very strong and light weight. We offer the highest quality Ferrari F 458 carbon accessories for all of your needs.

 

The F 458 (Ferrari 458 Italia) appeared for the first time at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. One thing that sets the 458 apart from other cars is that it´s engine has direct fuel injection.

 

This is the first time a Ferrari has used this technology with mid-engine setups in its road cars. The 458 has an amazing amount of power.

 

It boasts 570 PS at 9,000 rpm and 80% of the torque available at 3,250 rpm. The 4.5 V8 engine holds the world record for power per liter.

 

In the Ferrari 458 there are engine compartment covers made of high quality carbon.

 

Another thing that is different about the 458 is the transmission.It does not come with the standard Ferrari gated manual transmission.

 

 

It has a dual-clutch 7-speed gearbox making it the first model offered to the mainstream without the classic manual transmission.

 

In order to improve the handling it has E-Diff and F1-Trac traction control systems. These systems help to improve the cornering and acceleration by up to 32%. The suspension has a double wishbone that links to the traction control in the rear.

 

There is a prefill function in the brakes that has the pistons move the brake pads to contact with the discs in order to minimize the delay in break application.

 

With the help of ABS a 100-0 km/h / 62-0 mph break has a distance of 32.5 meters or 107 feet. A top speed of over 325 km/h and 0-100km/h (62mph)in less than 3.4 seconds are two other things that set the 458 apart from other cars.

 

In a drag race against the Ferrari F430 on the television show Top Gear the F458 was able to win by a large margin.

 

The body is aerodynamic and produces a down force of 140 kg at 124 mph (200km/h). The company Pininfarina designed the body along with other recent Ferrari models.

 

There is also a diffuser made of strong carbon. These along with deformable winglets in the front grille that lower at high speeds reduce drag dramatically.

The Ferrari 458 also features front wings made of carbon. The shape of the car was created after tests in a wind tunnel. The air curves around the cabin to the tail spoiler.

 

All of this supports the diffuser that creates massive amounts of down force. Michael Schumacher a famous Ferrari Formula 1 driver helped design the interior.

 

He also had a lot of input in putting many of the dashboard controls directly on the steering wheel.

 

There is also a sub Window Cosmetic Shield as well as underbody shields that are made of carbon.

 

At a look closer you will not only notice the aerodynamics of the F458 but that it has fog light covers, lock covers, fuel filler flap, outer door handles, and exterior mirrors made out of carbon fibers.

 

These look great and are very durable.

 

Another look at the details and you will find that the Air Filter Box, Fuel Pump Cover, wheelhouse cover and kick plates are made of carbon as well.

 

Driving a car is all about going somewhere and the luggage compartment that is also made of carbon gives you enough space for your bags when traveling.
