#Ferrari #458Vs488 #windowsmashing
This week TheCarGuys take the new Ferrari 488 GTB and test it versus Damian’s long-term 458 Italia. Which is the better in terms of performance, noise, exterior looks, quality of interior and long-term ownership and value?
Many of you have asked whether it’s worth upgrading from a 430 to a 458, or whether it’s worth saving up for the new 488 instead of going for a used 458. Hopefully this video will answer many of your questions. But if you have more, don’t hesitate to leave comments on this video, or hit us up on Instagram.
* Note - performance figures quoted in the Top Trumps section of this video are based on TheCarGuys’ own cars and are not necessary those of Ferrari or any other organisation. It is also worth noting that we are comparing a 15k mile 458 Italiaversus an 800-mile 488 GTB. Neither cars have been modified in any way.
Created by two ordinary guys with an obsession for cars, TheCarGuys.tv is a digital channel that celebrates everything automotive - supercars, classics, quirky, hidden gems and those in the TCG garage.

SO WHAT SMASHED THE WINDOW?. We reckon it was a stone flicked up by the passing green Land Rover. Gravel driveways often get stuck between the tread of the tyres on big SUVs, and then are flung out when they accelerate on tarmac roads.

I hope you are right. Other possibilities are far more worrying. www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/he-couldve-killed-someone-idiot-13181610 I would strongly encourage fast frame dashcams to record all-around coverage of your beautiful cars. Being able to frame check for damning evidence and a number plate would be most satisfying. The mobius cameras are great for capturing side views and are very discrete for capturing 'supermarket car park rash' and vandalism incidents. USB power banks can enable several days of protection without killing your car battery.

Update: check out projectile which seems to become airborne as vehicle passes. Immediately prior to impact, you can see it has a blurry speck located at the rear of car guys head @18:49 Due respect, I don’t believe a stone the size of which would be lodged in a tire tread, traveling in a parallel path like that can impart enough force to make the window fail. The failure was obviously caused by stress on the window. What would cause that much stress? It seems to me to be one of three scenarios. First, and least likely, it could’ve resulted from a manufacturing defect in the glass itself. Secondly, could have resulted from improper mounting of the window. Perhaps the vehicle was worked on previously. Other than that it may have resulted from a projectile originating from a location perpendicular to the vehicle.

@@playgt326 Best I ever personally saw in a 458 Italia was 335 on gps @ 8900 rpm. So far the best I've seen in a 488 Spider was 341 @ 7500 rpm. The Italia was definitely maxed, as we could pin it for about 4-5 minutes. The 488 may have had a kph or two left, but it was pretty much done at that speed. If a 458 runs 339 gps, that's definitely only in perfect conditions where the DA is low and temps are down.

Very enjoyable vlog...Damien your a very lucky man to have both and the rest of your fantastic garage. If I had the choice of these two it'd be the 458 the best modern Ferrari since the 355 and a far most evocative design, whereas the 488 appears more function over form. At this time, I don't think 458 prices will raise but remain firm around £160k+ for spiders and low mileage examples, whereas the 488 will depreciate further, mainly because of its Turbo engine which I don't think will experience a growth in appreciation (in collectiability terms) the way the 458 will do as time passes. But if the 488 is a car that your not going to hang onto and creates an avenue to a "Pista"...well then it's money well spent!

Supremely good comparison and the reason why comparison reviews are the most informative for making a qualified decision. The side-by-side, split view was worth whatever effort it took to produce. Ah, the contrast stitching reflecting and distracting in the windshield (thx for repeatedly noting this in videos). Now, how about Ferrari California n/a vs T review? The power difference and numerical results are notably drastic YET it’d be interesting to hear about the impressions and simple fun factor.

Very nice video. Terrific job. How about a video with the 458 Aperta with these two? Also are you getting a 488 Pista? Cheers

Great job guys! Especially appreciated by me, who 2 weeks ago bought his first ever Ferrari, a 2015 458 Spider! I have a few American sports cars (Vipers and Vettes) but I must admit this is a masterpiece - truly a piece of art. Glad I did not decide to go with the 488.

My opinion based upon having corvettes for 20+ years and Vipers for 10 years (still have several of each) is that my first and only Ferrari is (as stated in my initial post) - an amazing car. Intoxicating, exhilarating, breathtaking and undeniably different than any American sports car.

What a pair of likeable chaps. For a guy like me working in a warehouse, currently driving a £4,000 VW Passat I can only dream of these cars but these videos certainly give me a glimpse in to a dream world. Like most I have a car at certain price points. After the M Sport estates, on to the 911’s, when I crack £100,000 in dream money it’s the 458. I had five laps at Elvington in one as birthday presents, even though I’d guess I got to 60 in 10 seconds and barely hit 80mph it blew my mind to drive such an incredible car. For me as beautiful and classy as cars come.

Smashing video guys, great comparison that I've not seen done before in such detail. Also great to see that you didn't do a clickbait video...facepalm thumbnail and "my Ferrari is destroyed" title etc like erm certain youtubers, you know who I mean. P.s Bullet proof glass for the Pista it is then!.

Thanks, Adam. We're too old for clickbait :). This is our first really big comparison, but I'm sure it won't be the last. It was a bit old 'mutha' to complete, but hopefully everyone will enjoy it.

The F458 looks better. The F488's body looks over designed and messy where as the F458 body looks cleaner. F458 interior, especially the dash looks better too. Engines with turbos can also fail so its great the F458 doesn't have one and is naturally aspirated. The engine/exahust noise on the F458 sounds heaps better then the F488. Unfortunately the F488 and the Corvette Z06 look similar which makes the F458 look more distinct.

I think the 458 is better on the whole, preferably without being attacked on country roads though haha. That must've been scary having the windows smash right next to you! I do think that wireless keys are ok but I prefer a normal key. I don't like that wireless keys can be hacked to steal your car.

Personally i would go for the 458 in the same color scheme as your 488. That window scared the $h!t out of me. If it was a rock from the land rover i hope it didn’t damage the door paint aswell

I go for the 458 even though the 488 is FASTER on track. Dont think i will ever see a more attractive car. And,the economic benefits will be much greater with the 458 in the future,nudge nudge..
