Car enthusiasts have been anticipating a hardcore version of the Ferrari 458 Italia ever since it was revealed in 2009, and it has finally appeared in the form of the 458 Speciale.

The high-revving 4.5-litre V8 engine now produces 605hp and 540Nm of torque, which means that it produces more horsepower per litre than any other naturally-aspirated road car engine at 135hp/l. This also means that it can get from 0-100km/h in 3.0 seconds, and lap the Fiorano Circuit in 1:23.5 mins – 1.5 seconds faster than the standard 458 Italia.

Tuning firm, Novitec Rosso, have added another stage of tuning for the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, upping the power from an already-impressive 740hp to 774hp.

The extra power comes from treating the F12 Berlinetta’s 6.3-litre V12 engine to an engine management upgrade – by changing the mapping for injection and ignition – as well as a high-performance exhaust system with high-flow catalysts and butterfly valves.  The sports exhaust system can be ordered separately.
