  • The Ferrari 488 GTB is the latest in a glorious line of mid-engined V8 coupes to roll out of the Maranello gates. It shares plenty in common with its predecessor, the 458, but the big change comes from the way it delivers its power. That's because the 488 is the first mid-engined production Ferrari since the iconic F40 to feature turbocharging. But has the new power unit taken away from the experience, or does this feel just as special as any other Ferrari? I find out by putting the 488 through an in-depth road test.

      You're right the relatability of a normal bloke driving a Ferrari 488 GTB around town is incredible. If you want something really relatable the reviewer should be a multi-millionaire talking about how good it looks next to his 911 R and what the residuals are on both vehicles.
