The award-winning Ferrari 458 Italia has taken another international prize,winning the coveted title of ‘Car of the Year 2010’ and ‘Super car of the Year 2010’ from Car Middle East magazine.

 

Its editorial director Shahzad Sheikh said: “Ferrari’s 458 Italia is one of the most instantly desirable Ferraris for many years. The fact that it is incredibly talented and yet tame enough to be an everyday car is a bonus.

 

“This is currently one of the most desirable cars on the planet and a future classic for sure. It offers a stunning physique, exquisite detailing, pulverising performance, astonishing ride and handling and surprising usability. It is the ultimate superhero car and manages to vanquish all-comers with frightening ease.”

 

The accolades follow on from a raft of other awards for the 458 Italia including Fifth Gear’s ‘Fast Car of the Year’, BBC Top Gear Magazine’s ‘Super car of the Year’ and ‘Car of the Year’, GQ Magazine’s ‘Supercar of the Year’, MSN Cars ‘Car of the Year’ and Auto Express’ ‘Performance Car of the Year’.

 

The Ferrari 458 Italia was revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2009 to immediate critical acclaim. Following an extensive international media test drive programme in Maranello, the home of the fabled Prancing Horse, the car has been the subject of enthusiastic reviews,with its handling, road holding, ride comfort and performance all being subject to the kind of superlatives rarely seen from the world’s leading journalists.
