Ferrari 458 Italia GQ's Best Supercar
The Ferrari 458 Italia has been dubbed 'Supercar of the Year' by men’s style magazine GQ.
The magazine described the newest addition to the Ferrari range as "a motor that elicits the most primal response from all who see it, while moving engineering on to a whole new level", with the engine in particular being described as a 'masterpiece'.
The GQ Magazine award comes on the back of another recent award from BBC Top Gear Magazine which voted the Ferrari 458 Italia not only their 'Supercar of the Year' but their overall 'Car of the Year'.
The Ferrari 458 Italia was revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September to immediate critical acclaim.
Following an extensive international media test drive programme in Maranello, the home of the fabled Prancing Horse, the car has been the subject of enthusiastic reviews, with its handling, roadholding, ride comfort and performance all being subject to the kind of superlatives rarely seen from the world’s leading journalists.
