Is this the last naturally aspirated V8 Ferrari?

Even if that isn’t true, the 458 Speciale A is one awesome convertible that’s causing quite a stir at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.

The high-strung V8 engine makes 605 hp and 398 lb-ft torque, helping the convertible hit 60 mph in just 3 seconds. The Speciale A uses a new advanced SCC traction control system that debuted on the coupe version of the Speciale. This system should be capable of turning this drop-top into a truly impressive track-toy.
