Love when you’re honest and give so much information/opinion that no other car TH-camrs think it’s relevant. Like comparing the smell between the normal 458 and the Speciale. Keep it up, James. Love the fresh delivery. Also, delicious camera work. That car deserves a wallpaper.
while Shmee150 is sucking on the teets of ferrari buying all the new garbage models, James is incessantly celebrating the actual enthusiast classics. Bravo James!
I hate that i was busy in high school instead of buying the original 458 when it launched, the f430 was the car that got me into cars but the 458 was the one that cemented my love for ferrari
Thanks for all these Hong Kong videos. As a local I really enjoy them. Richard had already sold his 458 Speciale and is now primarily collecting JDMs. Still a very impressive collection.
I've been lucky to go to hongkong a few time, experienced myself the car culture there and met some amazing petrolheads. I remember the video of your first time there, and it bring so many memories. This country is so special and seeing you enjouying the cars there is amazing ! Absolutely thinking of going there again soon !!
@@MrJWW you always make the correct choice, would love to see you just return to some of your original cars and give your thoughts now as was it the right choice to do, with the benefit of hindsight of course
Absolutely thrilled with a speciale video from James. Great information on the ownership experience, and what one could expect from the platform. Another great representation of the experience with the car, thanks for continued great content!!!
I do hope that your trip was a good one. I agree that the 458 Speciale is one of the finest pieces of art to have been made. Thank you for showing us some of the Maco and Hong Kong area that last shot of the skyline was perfect James/Yorky LOL
I have a 458 Speciale and I have to agree with James. The sound of the V8 engine right behind you is epic and as the revs climb, when you see the lights start to illuminate on the steering wheel, it adds to the visceral experience. However I also agree that my GT3 RS is better on the track. The RS has better brakes and a better PDK transmission. Both are special cars however and put a big grin on your face, just one without a helmet and one with a helmet.
Another great video thanks for taking us to places i would never see and the cars are great as well you do this in a way that you just love driving the cars and giving me the chance to come along with you thanks again 😊
I absolutely love this video! Featuring the „underated“ cars SV overshadowed by the SVJ, 675 by the 765 and the speciale. In my opinion the best V8 Ferrari ever made what a video.
Your comment about the performance of modern cars is spot on. To extract it you have to be on a track. Lot's to be said for the 458 or F12 for exactly that reason.
3:19 I was watching old top gear the other day and when Jeremy was reviewing the 599, he did the hold the pedal while braking to down shift automatically.
What can I say. Superb video. I will never forget that 675LT video. All I will say is that if you haven’t seen it then go and find it it’s Stella. I would have the speciale the 675LT and then the Aventador S, controversial about the Aventador S maybe but the spider version is absolutely stunning.
As a Corvette fan boy it was interesting to hear the C8 development engineers say that they wanted to replicate the Ferrari 458 but not surprising, because as you said you can give the 458 a bit of a thrashing without either scaring yourself or going to jail. Have you seen Ryan Tuerck has a 458 engine in a Corolla drift car and hearing at or near the limiter all the time is epic. He also has a V10 Judd in a Supra, World Time Attack car.
Mr JWW Absolutely Incredible Video I think it's awesome that you got to Drive that Absolutely incredible 458 Speciale and 675LT Spider and I think that Aventador SV is Absolutely Gorgeous
Omg. These guys have some of the all time great supercars. The 675LT & the other track-special, raw driver's cars like the 458s, Aston GT8, Gallardo Super Trofeo/Superlegerra, Aventador SV/SVJ & Senna. It could only be better with the likes of a 997.2 GT3/GT2rs.. 992 GT3rs, Huracan Performante/STO or Murci LP640/SV, CGT, P1 & Zonda F.👏👌
You're spot on Mr.Dub, what a beautiful car. And I couldn't agree more. Ferrari's 4.5L 8 cylinder is an artistic masterpiece. In my opinion, the only modern Ferrari that's more gorgeous is possibly the 296 GTB 🤷♂️.... weird how Ferrari's mid level vehicles are in my opinion:LEAGUES more beautiful than their flagship models???? It's interesting.
nowhere near the same refinement, heritage, and chassis precision. Also the pairing between gearbox and motor at ferrari is second to none, bar maybe Porsche's pdk
The Z06 is almost 400kg heavier than the Ferrari. There is no comparison between a track Ferrari and a corvette. Completely different Fokus in both cars
@MrJWW thank you for sharing with us your experiences in 458 speciales. I have a few experiences in 430 scuderia, both on track and on the road. Is the speciale as raw as the scud? It appears to be more refined and luxurious and less track focused and less ‘rough around the edges,’ so to say
I want one of these very much, in Giallo Modena with the NART color stripes. I'd have to sell my house to get it though and I don't think the spouse is keen on living in a tiny car.

Man I miss the F12 and 458 Speciale content!
two best Ferraris ever
458 Speciale is one of the greatest Ferraris ever built. How anyone would buy the new stuff over this doesn't get it imo.
100% I've driven LaFerrari, 456, 488, F12, and 599... none of them come even close to Speciale in terms of a fun driving experience.
Agreed, Shmee has never owned a 458, says a lot. Difference between a car buyer and a car guy.
Love when you’re honest and give so much information/opinion that no other car TH-camrs think it’s relevant.
Like comparing the smell between the normal 458 and the Speciale.
Keep it up, James. Love the fresh delivery.
Also, delicious camera work. That car deserves a wallpaper.
This one was pretty informative, appreciate it!
James this is a bot
while Shmee150 is sucking on the teets of ferrari buying all the new garbage models, James is incessantly celebrating the actual enthusiast classics. Bravo James!
Not a Shmee fan at all 😂, them new models suck!
4 real
I am a fan of shmee normally but buying all the boring production Ferraris doesn't make sense unless he has to to get something special from Ferrari
Great comment
Amen brotha, amen 👍🏻
I hate that i was busy in high school instead of buying the original 458 when it launched, the f430 was the car that got me into cars but the 458 was the one that cemented my love for ferrari
James your spoiling us with this content , it is much appreciated 🙏🙌
6:10 “Initial D AE86”, and a few other cool cars. HK’s car scene is amazing!
Thanks for all these Hong Kong videos. As a local I really enjoy them.
Richard had already sold his 458 Speciale and is now primarily collecting JDMs. Still a very impressive collection.
I’m lucky enough to have a 458 spider - I also chuckle like James does in this video when changing gear and listening to that sweet engine note.
Speciale is a competely different animal
@@Dtp2296 I look forward to seeing your first hand knowledge and video review of yours.

I remember that beautiful dark red one you had one of my favourite cars on your channel/journey
I wish I could have kept it! But it was the right move at the time 🤷🏻♂️
@@MrJWW you always make the correct choice, would love to see you just return to some of your original cars and give your thoughts now as was it the right choice to do, with the benefit of hindsight of course

James your posts are always the best. Your knowledge is so impressive, thank you.
Living the dream and what a time to be alive. Great video with some incredible cars.
@10:47 that is stunning … nice car .. beautiful sunset with a 747 behind…
I still remember your original Speciale, the grey exterior and yellow hints on the interior! What a car that was, that was one of my favourite specs!
I do hope that your trip was a good one. I agree that the 458 Speciale is one of the finest pieces of art to have been made. Thank you for showing us some of the Maco and Hong Kong area that last shot of the skyline was perfect James/Yorky LOL

It never ceases to amaze me the depth of your technical knowledge James!😎So interesting 👍🏻

A Legend, driving Legends, creating Legendary footage! AWESOME!!! 💫👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great video 👍🏼🍻

The 458 platform is such beautiful. 😊

What a video and what a trio of cars. The speciale is truly something amazing
458 Speciale is up there as one of the all time greats. Just pure driving and noise heaven
3:19 I was watching old top gear the other day and when Jeremy was reviewing the 599, he did the hold the pedal while braking to down shift automatically.
Mr JWW and 458 speciale is a love story I’ve always loved to watch the last decade
amazing cinematography, keep it up
I was 12 when I saw you got the grey Speciale. I remember freaking out when you got the red one, please get another gosh dang it!
It’s written in the stars! 😅
I remember the first time I saw a red 458 driving through East London. The first time I ever stopped and unashamedly stared at a car. Just the best ❤
Mr JWW and DDE all the way for me 👊
So the guy has the peak of each brand! Awesome trio!
Loved the vid. Learned loads. The 458 is my favourite Ferrari.
The Speciale is the modern day F40. It’s the most tingling ferrari I have ever had. Just love it
What can I say. Superb video. I will never forget that 675LT video. All I will say is that if you haven’t seen it then go and find it it’s Stella. I would have the speciale the 675LT and then the Aventador S, controversial about the Aventador S maybe but the spider version is absolutely stunning.
Had my Spesh for 2 years and never knew about holding onto the paddle whilst braking, need to go out and try this right now 👍

Last of the great Ferraris, instantly legendary ❤❤❤
The spec on that 458 is just something else! Holy moly.
This is the perfect convoy only missing a GT2 RS 💯🔥👍🏾
Mr JWW Absolutely Incredible Video I think it's awesome that you got to Drive that Absolutely incredible 458 Speciale and 675LT Spider and I think that Aventador SV is Absolutely Gorgeous

I need a top gear style spin off series with Mr. JWW, DDE, and Niko.
Its really hard to choose between the two... I'll take both of them so we don't argue! lol Awesome video!!!
my lord that 458 is just PERFECT
Love this car... And the 488 Pista. ❤
I’m out here watching a sunny Hong Kong in Arizona after it rained so hard it’s like we switched places
Classic example of a beautiful car 🤙✌️

Awesome video 👍
The spec reminds me of your 1st speciale.
The C8 Z06 Corvette provides what this car provides, and then some! NA FPC V8 sound and performance, namely.
nowhere near the same refinement, heritage, and chassis precision. Also the pairing between gearbox and motor at ferrari is second to none, bar maybe Porsche's pdk
The Z06 is almost 400kg heavier than the Ferrari. There is no comparison between a track Ferrari and a corvette. Completely different Fokus in both cars
@@AAALEXANDERSON Everyone knows Ferrari lies about weights. And the Z06 as a fact has way faster lap times.
does the Corvette have a hydraulic steering rack or electric steering rack? If it has a hydraulic steering rack then yes it's a win-win
No one cares about your mass produced car.
It’s a blade to drive. Pure drivers car.
The Speciale and the TDF are two of the best Ferraris ever made along the lines of the F50 and F40
The LT days. Great memories.
I still remember your 675LT video like it was yesterday. Curious to know if it's still your most watched video? Peace
It’s not my most watched but its one of my most quoted when I meet people 😅
That 458 is a great spec.
Classic. LFA next
did anyone saw the 86 6:09
I just wrote this same comment lol
They completely caught me off guard 😮
Beautiful Hong Kong..!!! I will be there in 2 weeks 😊🎉😊
The last time I was in Hong Kong & Macau, there wasn't a Bridge. We took a hydrofoil boat.
James, your silver Speciale remains the best spec'd 458 I’ve ever seen. At this point, I’ve almost forgiven you for letting it go… 😂
😂
You had a great spec speciale
You absolutely cannot beat the Speciale / F12 "grails".
Looks like we have loved machines more than the planet❤❤🎉🎉
I don’t know if anybody remembers but the 488 Speciale dark gray one that he had was a great spec
This was a solid vid, keep up the good work.
Will never forget your first reaction driving the 675LT hearing this cracks and wanting to sell the house to buy it
This content is pure Art, thank you for putting this together!!!
I miss your Red TDF!
Novitec Decat speciale = the most fun you can have with your clothes on 💨
Highly recommend to anyone with a speciale, it transforms the car.
@MrJWW thank you for sharing with us your experiences in 458 speciales. I have a few experiences in 430 scuderia, both on track and on the road. Is the speciale as raw as the scud? It appears to be more refined and luxurious and less track focused and less ‘rough around the edges,’ so to say
Love
McLaren (and the regulations)made Ferrari going for turbos, the difference in acceleration was insane, but give me the 458 everyday.
9:17 you need to find back Richard XRX his collection has changed a lot now 😂
Can’t wait til Mat gets his hands on this
Fun fact, the new C9 Corvette used this as it's benchmark. It hit the mark (except it's not a Ferrari 😂).
Hong Kong represent 🤘
Now need to go to Tokyo and do a Tokyo Drift too fast too furious remake!
Is the look that follows you around. Utterly out of this world😊. 😊
I think it’s time to bring another 458 Speciale back to the channel James! 😂🎉
I have the original 458, with some modifications. I will only part with it when I die.
I want one of these very much, in Giallo Modena with the NART color stripes. I'd have to sell my house to get it though and I don't think the spouse is keen on living in a tiny car.
I knew pretty quickly that this was HK😊
anyone else spot the two ae86 driving by? 6:08
67 is famous car youtuber in Hong Kong
If you’ve got money buy one because in the next 5 yrs values will fly up…a spec A will be a limbo quid within 3 yrs I’d out money on it
Ferrari Number one!
My wedding car, 10 years ago this month. Shame it got written off😢
@Officialbasketcase says hello again!!
1:10 I actually throught it was a senna...😂😂
Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown Gameplay Reveal 😎👌🏽🔥
The OG will know James had a speciale before
Wished you didn't sell yours right? 😢 The red one you had was lovely.
458 speciale. . . . . We Go Again!
🔥Ridiculous numberplate! SPECIALE!🔥
