Are 458's selling?

[Mike01606]

I think the 458 possibly hits a real sweet spot with many people. Way more capable than any road car needs to be and presses the right buttons for many. I know there are a fair few other cars with blistering performance that take it to another level, Dave's 650 for example, but I think the 458 probably sits just right, for me at least. I'd love one!

+1 ....Nails it for me. If I could have one more car it’d be a 458

Sort of what I was saying on Dave’s other thread. I really do like the 360 but money no object I’d have a 458. The 650 may well be quicker but, as Adrian said recently, performance at the top end has become irrelevant. There’s no point on the road where you’d be in a 458 just wishing you had the extra poke of a 650. It’s just never going to happen. As such the overall driving experience and ownership experience are the only factors that matter and in that, I agree that the 458 has hit a bit of a sweet spot. I really do like them.

As previously noted,one Swiss guy in Zurich has bought 10+ 458s as an investment which has supported the market here. Personally the 458 breadvan design is and never will be for me, I love the 488 design but HATE the turbo engine, buy a F430, its simple !

Had my first experience with an F8 the other day in Europe. Similar to the 488 I see no improvement over the 458 and in many respects the fussy contrived styling puts me off.
