New Ferrari 488 GTS



The Ferrari 488 GTS is a Ferrari with the same engine as the new Ferrari California T but does not have 552 BHP, but 661, more than the Enzo Ferrari of 2002 but has the same engine layout (twin-turbocharged, mid-engined layout) as the Ferrari F40 made in 1987 - Famous for being the first production car to go past 200 MPH going 201 like the Ford GT40 did only the GT40 wasn't really a production car. The 488 GTS is the successor to the magnificent Ferrari 458 spider (convertible) but instead of having 562 horsepower, it has 661 and it's just a bit heavier than the coupe so it's still astonishing to drive and still can go from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds and go 203 mph and the rivals are very strong, in fact, stronger than ever. For example, the McLaren 675LT and the Lamborghini Murcielago SV which isn't really a rival, in fact, that's quite an old car now, but it's a car with around the same amount of power (660-670 horsepower). Altogether it's topped the standard 488 GTB and I would buy one if I could afford £210,000! What about you...

Have a good school holiday!!!
