Historical Significance

Retractable aluminum hardtop that adds only 110 lbs over the coupe, active aerodynamic front and rear flaps for enhanced downforce, side slip angle control (SSC), and an extremely limited production run.

Production Numbers

Limited worldwide production of only 499 units for the Aperta variant.

Maintenance Recommendations

Regular annual servicing at authorized Ferrari dealerships, routine fluid and filter changes, periodic inspection of carbon-ceramic brake wear, and monitoring of dual-clutch transmission health.

Fun Facts

1. The 458 Speciale Aperta features the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 engine Ferrari ever put into a road car at the time of its release, screaming all the way to a 9,000 RPM redline. 2. Owning one of these limited-production apertas typically required being a preferred Ferrari VIP client or owning several other high-end models. 3. Despite being a convertible, it actually matched the track performance of the hardtop Speciale coupe around Ferrari's Fiorano test circuit.
