Coming Soon

Ferrari 488 F142M

20152020 · F142M · coupe

Replaced the 458 with the move to forced induction. 3.9L F154 twin-turbo V8 making 661 hp — first turbocharged road Ferrari V8 since the F40 (1987-1992). GTB coupe, Spider folding hardtop, and the track-special 488 Pista (711 hp, 2018-2019). The shift to turbos was controversial with NA loyalists but the performance gains were significant.

Watch out: Turbocharger oil-line and heat-management failures have surfaced on higher-mileage cars — Ferrari extended powertrain warranty coverage on affected examples. Carbon-ceramic brake rotor replacement is six-figure if needed (verify pad thickness and rotor condition at purchase). Otherwise the F154 has been remarkably durable.

Full clubhouse — owner Garage Lineage, common problems, year-by-year notes, and product picks — is on the build list.
