The Ferrari 458 MM Speciale Is A GTO-Inspired One-Off That'll Make You Lose Your Mind
The era of Ferrari’s naturally-aspirated, V8-powered supercars may well be coming to an end, but we don’t mind so much given that this gorgeous piece of metal is effectively the swansong. It’s called the 458 MM Speciale, and it’s just been revealed at Fiorano circuit after being signed off by chief Ferrari test driver Dario Benuzzi.
Under the skin you’ll find all the same oily bits as the regular 458 Speciale - meaning a 4.5-litre, 597bhp V8 and a chassis to die for - but everything on top has been changed.
There are redesigned carbon composite bumpers at the front and rear, and redesigned light clusters at both ends. We don’t know about you, but we’re particularly fond of what’s going on at the rear.
The bodywork is all new and made from handcrafted aluminium, with the A-pillars painted black to create a visor-style wraparound windscreen which Ferrari says is “very much in the style of the 1984 Ferrari GTO”. The whole shebang is finished in Bianco Italia, with an Italian flag-inspired set of stripes.
Want one? Tough, it’s just a one-off, built especially for an “enthusiastic British owner.” We have no idea who this owner is, but he or she clearly has a lot of taste.

Any word on the price?
I’m not a big cavallino rampante fan..but every now and then they hit the spot…and this..oh my…
Is it just me or does it seem like Ferrari is taking a small jab at Ford, incase if you have forgotten that in the 60’s Ferrari pulled out of the deal and Ford got mad so they made the GT to show Ferrari America has power. Maybe Ferrari is trying to say something here..
Hmmm who do we know with a collection of white Ferraris…?
Wonder how much it cost them.
This is a Lotus Evor wtf, am I the only one?
