Introduced at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the 458 Speciale is indeed special. Though quite similar in appearance to its predecessor, the mid-engine supercar benefits from numerous advancements that elevate its performance to another level.

Ferrari Style Center collaborated with Pininfarina to redesign most of the body panels for improved aerodynamics while leaving the overall aesthetic largely unchanged. Using processes and machinery employed by its F1 team, Ferrari engineers upgraded the F136 4.5-liter V-8 with enhanced components and a lofty 14:1 compression ratio. Capable of revving to a screaming 9,000 rpm, it was the most powerful naturally aspirated V-8 the automaker had built to that point. Ferrari claimed it held the highest output per liter of displacement of any naturally aspirated engine in a production vehicle at the time.

Other hardware upgrades gave the 458 Speciale the quickest steering response and highest lateral acceleration of any production Ferrari. Active aerodynamic elements further improved the driving dynamics with flaps in the front and rear automatically changing position to either improve drag or downforce as needed. An ingenious software algorithm in the all-new Side-Slip Control system worked with the improved adaptive magnetic dampers, the dual-clutch transmission, and E-Diff rear differential to create seemingly supernatural responses and predictability at the limit, making ordinary drivers feel as skillful as championship winners.

On offer is an exemplary 458 Speciale with only 1,332 miles showing on the odometer at cataloguing time. It is finished in Bianco Avus with Grigio Corsa livery stripes and yellow brake calipers. Nicely optioned, the Ferrari’s exterior was specified from new with Scuderia Ferrari shields on the fenders and various body elements in exposed carbon fiber, including the front air vents and side nolders. The black interior features contrast stitching in white, an Alcantara headliner, embroidered headrests, and a white tachometer face. Additional factory options include the Advanced Frontlighting System, an axle lift, and parking sensors with a rear camera.

Delivered new to Ferrari South Bay in Torrance, California, this 458 Speciale remained in the state with its first two owners before moving to Arizona under its third, current owner. An invoice on file dated February 2026 confirms that Scottsdale Ferrari-Maserati warranty work, as well as routine service which included filter and fluid changes. At this time, the vehicle was also fitted with four new tires and a fresh battery. The Ferrari is accompanied by its books and manuals, window sticker copy, invoices, and a car cover.

Although an excellent choice as a collection piece, being in superb condition and driven sparingly, this 458 Speciale would be an ideal companion on Ferrari Tour events or track days, where its impressive capabilities may be explored in full.
