The 458 Italia is the car many enthusiasts hold up as the high point of the naturally aspirated mid-engined Ferrari: a 4.5-liter flat-plane V8 spinning to 9,000 rpm, 562 horsepower, and the first of the line offered without a manual gearbox. Its Pininfarina body and Michael Schumacher-influenced dynamics made it the benchmark of its class from launch. Because everything after it was turbocharged or hybrid, the 458's standing with collectors has only hardened with time.
