4/5 Very Good 16 views

I was lucky enough o experience the Ferrari 488 Spider during a weekend drive along the Kayak Highway. With the roof open, the roar of the V8 twin-turbo engine was completely addictive- a pure theater no one would want to miss. The 661 hp engine paired with the open top design makes every ride thrilling. Despite the high power, this car feels quite balance on its wheels, even on the Malaysian B-roads. Coming to the cabin, its focused with a luxurious flair, especially with the controls angled towards the driver seat. The only drawback is the limited boot space, which means I often need to decide what to carry so that everything can be accommodated without too much efforts.

The convertible variant of the 488 GTB coupe
Most hard tops are bulky and heavy and make the car look a bit off. However, the Ferrari 488 Spider has an ultra-light rigid hard top which definitely adds some amount of weight while maintaining the aerodynamics of the car. Irrespective of the speed, when its roof was up I felt... Read More

Experience a blast while driving this at a very high speed
In no sense this is a compromised car. I would prefer to label this more as a driver’s car than just being a mere coupe. If you drive the car at a high speed the kind of satisfaction you will avail out of the model will literally leave you jawdropped. Performance of the... Read More
