Vehicle Overview

2016 Ferrari 488 Spider Auto.

The 2016 Ferrari 488 Spider combines open-air touring with the compact, focused character expected of a mid-rear-engined Ferrari. Finished in Rosso Corsa with a Beige interior, this example presents a particularly traditional colour combination, while its 10,633 km odometer reading keeps the car firmly in low-distance territory for its age.

Power comes from a 3.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing 492 kW and 760 Nm. It drives the rear wheels through a seven-speed sports automatic dual-clutch transmission, giving the 488 Spider the mechanical specification to suit both relaxed cruising and more involving roads. The stated 0-100 km/h acceleration time is three seconds, while electronic damper suspension, active traction control, ceramic brakes and selectable drive modes provide the hardware and control systems expected of a high-performance convertible.

The two-seat cabin is trimmed in Beige and includes full electric seats, a multifunction steering wheel with LED indicators, dual-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth connectivity, GPS navigation and USB ports. A yellow rev counter adds a distinctly motorsport-inspired focal point to the driver’s view, while the beige central tunnel, leather lower dashboard and coloured stitching continue the coordinated interior treatment.

Its specification also includes extensive carbon-fibre detailing, including the rear air ducts, fog lamps, side air splitter, front spoiler and steering wheel. Red brake callipers, Scuderia Ferrari shields on the front fenders, 20-inch alloy wheels and a sport sill cover add further visual definition without changing the car’s fundamentally elegant proportions.

For everyday usability, front and rear parking sensors, proximity key access, a starter button, cruise control, power windows and headlight cleaning assistance make the car easier to place and operate away from open-road driving. Electronic stability control, brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution, ABS and tyre-pressure monitoring add useful layers of control and reassurance.

The listing states that the vehicle is accompanied by Ferrari books, a car cover, trickle charger and spare key, and describes a full Ferrari history. With its limited recorded kilometres, classic colour pairing and unusually comprehensive carbon-fibre and convenience specification, this 488 Spider offers a carefully configured interpretation of Ferrari’s V8 convertible formula.
