Today, having recently sampled the Spider variant of Ferrari's hardcore 488 Pista I now get to try the coupe. It's lighter, leaner and theoretically more focused - but is it better, and does it answer the questions I had left over?

6000 miles in 3 months in a Pista is legendary, even more so with it being in England

[SicSemperBeats]

Seriously think the 458 Speciale and 488 Pista are the best looking modern cars made by Ferrari!

[markrhoden]

A few years ago while walking home from work saw a Pista as the owner was climbing out.
A really nice man allowed me to see inside and take a few pictures, stunning car

I can tell you the price of a carbon wheel: £7, 500 for a front and £9, 000 for a rear. I've had two crack now, utterly useless things, but my god, they look great.

[EduFabolous]

The most beautiful modern Ferrari, still have it as a wallpaper to this day

I drove this thing for 30min on a Test Drive in Maranello, its nuts, its literally on rails. One small push of the accelerator in sport mode and you are doing 130kmh

[silentone]

That spec is absolutely PERFECTION. Stunning.

I’ve owned mine over 2 years and been to Italy twice in it. Massive frunk 3 large bags. Very refined. I’ve also had a 720s no competition Pista is 2-3 secs faster around goodwood and feels 100% more special and has lost no money. Amazing. I run my Gold wheels on Pilot sports and my carbon on cup 2s.

[PhanTimo]

A thing of beauty. By far one of the best looking from Ferrari's collection.

BTW nice reference to ST 👌

[jj-oo]

Its so beautiful honestly. Last year we were out eating at a fancy Restaurant where we only go for really special occasions and there was a dark blue Pista in the parking lot. I literally couldnt take my eyes off it

[jkliao]

This is the potentially achievable Ferrari dream car for me.

I used to have a 458 Italia, and my 488 GTB was just so much better in everyway minus the noise! I upgraded to a Pista and just loving it. I traded my 458 and got one of the highest spec 720S and loving it also....!

Great video, James. Thanks as ever. I'd swear those little orange side repeaters near the wing badge are the same item as those on my 2000 Fiat Coupe Turbo Plus!

[thewaywardgrape]

2:42 - I really like how basic, clear and simple that dash is. Very satisfying to look at and read!

[acadiaarchitecture]

Your narrative is so philosophical, love it. While others scream wooow and that's it.

[stephenlane]

Love that car 👌fantastic b shots down Blighty country lanes. Great video James 🙏

[edtonussi]

I love the"Chris's Harris book" on the seat. He's writing English using a bit more unusual words than you are speaking, but you're both my preferred English teachers ever! Continue like that dear petrol heads.
Sincerely.

Great review of a great customers car we have had the pleasure of having it in our mirrors on a couple of tours, absolutely stunning example and fantastic to see it used properly 🍾🏁

[davidemartorana]

I have been waiting for this video, thanks jay
