Used Ferrari 488
The Ferrari 488 is a striking, mid-engined sports car designed for drivers who want extreme performance with the convenience of a daily-use road car. Launched in 2015, it replaced the much-loved 458 Italia and quickly won praise for its effortless speed, responsive steering and comfort – even on longer journeys. A mainstay of Ferrari's engine lineup is the 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8, offering massive power (670bhp) and rapid acceleration (0-62mph in 3 seconds flat). Both the coupe (GTB) and convertible (Spider) share this powerhouse, along with purposeful styling and race-bred aerodynamics. With its mix of everyday practicality and supercar excitement, the 488 stacks up well against rivals such as the McLaren 650S and Porsche 911 Turbo. Today, it’s loved for its sharp handling and luxurious finish, justifying its right to bear the prancing horse badge.
