[Time To Buy?] Ferrari 458

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2020
- Episode of 2 of my 'Time To Buy' series and I visit Alexander's Prestige to get behind the wheel of a Ferrari 458 they currently have for sale.
The Ferrari 458 came out 10 years ago, representing a new era for Ferrari and the supercar in general. With 560hp from a naturally aspirated V8 engine, it was arguably the most usable mid-engined Ferrari ever made.
'Time To Buy' (or Bargain Hunter as I'm about to rename it) looks at cars that may now represent a good bargain due to the fact they've suffered their biggest hit of depreciation, they are rare or just represent a dying breed of car.
Episode 1 featured the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S:

I don’t know why I keep wiggling whilst talking to camera. Think maybe it’s just excitement to be out filming again! I’m working on it
Seen Through Glass nothing wrong in having passion about your job.
Idk about others but it certainly doesn't bother me. The excitement just exudes heart and passion for what you do and for cars itself.
Haha glad you acknowledged it 😂 noticed how twitchy and wobbly you had been especially in your first video back but yeah I just put it down to excitement and maybe caffeine 👍🏼😂
Thanks for mentioning it, noticed it last video ahah
Long legs, by the time the brain send out signals to the legs time has passed ! And wiggle wiggle - lol
Seems crazy that this car is already 10 years old, one of the best looking cars made.
Fully agree! Its design is so beautiful in my opinion. Will certainly still look fresh in another ten years from now 😎
One of the greatest designs of its generation, way better looking than the F8🤷🏽♂️
@@SmokeyJ69 actually i didn't find the f8 attractive
really? I never like the rear of this car. I think the 488 or F8 looks way better.
@@gedam131 Absolutely not! Both the 488 and f8 have poor design and no line flow
The 458 is an epic car in everyway possible... It was a huge leap from the 430 as Jeremy said on Top gear
2010's - When supercars started to get sophisticated and actually driveable
Nope 430 scud > 458 imo
@@elliotsw8 Pure feeling, yes. Everything else, nope
Ferrari was at their best with the 360 and F430, the 458 is incredible though
Lmao and James had JUST bought a 430 and got so much grief.
Personally I don’t think it’s time to buy a 458
Because I have 6 pounds in my bank account
Haha same! FFS
@@seenthroughglass the struggle is real 😂
welcome to the club
at least not fully leveraged ;)
I have 15 - makes me feel positively rich... 😢
458 is a future classic
458 Speciale yes, 458 not!
@@louis1904 soon
Louis yes . Give it 5 years and watch
@@louis1904 the 458 used is already more than a used 488, the 458 s will peak quicker where's the 458 will increase in value every time a v8 tt ferrari is made.
Think about this for a minute. Is a speciale really worth double the price of a 458? The speciale is only slightly upgraded and they made less of them. But most who owned one don’t drive them much . Would rather have a 458 spider and drive it more . It’s a special car
Ferrari 458 & 458 speciale will be future classic for sure, from F430 to 458 it wasn't just an evolution it was revolution.
Agreed!
Yeah but still overpriced currently. My money would go on a 430 Scuderia
Depends on what you want. I would take a manual 430 over any 458 or 430 Scuderia tbh. Manual+ Ferrari V8 is just an amazing combination.
Manual 430 cars are commanding same level if not higher prices than the scuds. The 360 CS is on a completely different league. My money is on the 458 Speciale to be the future collectible
@@weatherman5124 Same, but lets keep it on the down low, so they are somewhat affordable in 10 years when I can afford one. :D
Sam inserting an ad break at 4:58 in a 458 video, it’s the little things!
Sam: Time to buy a 458?
Me: YES
We are on the same wavelength on the 458 Italia. I've owned Ferrari (not 458), and McLaren…and now Lamborghini. I almost bought a 458 Italia, but I was scared to meet my hero car. A car I want to keep, forever. At 36 I have time to try the other marques, but in the end, the 458 Italia is what the heart desires.
How did your 570s? compare?
@Ian Pease parks cars
Same wavelength aswell. Can't decide between a 1993 Civic Le or a 1995 Honda Accord.
@Jimmy neutron You don’t buy a Ferrari working for someone else.
🧢🧢🧢 "owner of super cars” but works for a gun shop.
As a 458 owner i agree with every you say.
Haha. Glad to hear it
me too love it.
This is one of the most beautiful cars ever designed. Love it.
Timeless Pininfarina design ✔️
Gorgeous NA flat-plane V8 ✔️
Strong values ✔️
All the hallmarks of a future classic! 🤤
100%! Such a great car
Anyone else notice Sam’s new little shuffle when he talks to the camera?
Haha man I was looking in the comments to see if I was the only one to have noticed!! Saw it in the Taycan video as well haha!
Huge affinity towards the 458. From its driving dynamics to its looks. Stunning car
That Vanquish is absolutely beautiful, and I’m definitely a Ferrari fan...but, that Aston, wow!
I can’t not see the ‘seen through glass waddle’ now, my eyeeeeees
I have a 991.2 GT3 currently and getting very tempted with a 458 spider, lovely car.
Love this series
Awesome to hear. Thank you!
I'm in love with the 458. The looks and the engine note...
That would definitely be a great addition to the Seen Through Glass family 🥰🙂👍🏻
One day hopefully
@@seenthroughglass
Sam it would most definitely be a car that would suit you and you would be buying it to Drive, and Keep the car 🙂
So I'd say it's definitely worth it,
With the naturally aspirated V8, it's looks, and overall driveability, I can only see them climbing in value 🙂
It already shows when they are pretty much the same price as the newer 488,
And that's because while the newer car has improved in many ways, they've lost so much of the feel, dare I say Sole of a drivers car, that the 458 definitely is 🥰🙂👍🏻
As you very rightly pointed out, at the 150-170k price range, you have an increasingly large choice of fantastic vehicles 🥰🙂👍🏻
And I'd noticed the 'wobble' you've started to do lately in your video 🙂
To me it shows how much more comfortable you have become in-front of the camera 🙂
So much so that your excitement is barely contained 😁☺
Definitely loving the content buddy,
It's getting better with each video 🙂
@@seenthroughglass 458 Speciale or the 2022 C8 Z06 with the naturally aspirated 5.5L DOHC FPC V8 🤣🤔😏
@@seenthroughglass They go great with a manual 360. Perfect combo.
Sam I'm loving the way you are conducting your vids. Great idea with the bargain hunter series. You seem to have a really autonomous and organic way of thinking and filming your vids. Much appreciated and you are by far my favourite youtuber
2:45 Is exactly why the 458 is my dream car! I have driven one, and I WILL own one. Period.
Hands down my favorite production mid engine ferrari. The only one I've gotten to drive and it was the first supercar I've ever driven. I'm glad you love it as much as I did, truly a weapon for the road. I LOVE the sound and LOVE the handling. The throttle response is stupid awesome. Such a perfect car!
I am a huge Ferrari fanboy. I love every single design, but the 458's sound when combined with a ipe F1 exhaust...just wow. I've been saving up for a 458 (:
Love the 458. I hired for my 40th birthday a 458 spider for a long weekend , Friday to Monday, and it was everything I dreamed of and more. The reaction was always positive from children shouting it's a Fwrrari!! Out loud to people asking me loads of questions. When Top Gear first reviewed 458 Italia I got goosebumps and I still do when watching the video back now. Vicky Butler Henderson reviewed the 458 spider in Italy when she got very emotional driving the car. Only a 5 minute video on u tube. I was excited to here this car was being reviewed after listening to the podcast. I have always said if I won the lottery the first thing I would buy is a 458 spider as it has and always will be my dream supercar. Glad to hear the values remain strong because it's a great car, very fast and gives you that amazing feeling only the prancing badged cars you. Great video once again Sam!
One of your best car videos after a long time.
Love the comparison to what else you can get for the same money - more of this please!
Very nice vid, Sam. Your creativity and Cinematography Techniques add a super element to your content and online persona. Thank you, very much.
I'm liking this new "side-stepping-hobble" that Sam does while presenting.

th-cam.com/video/vqAOIIktDTo/w-d-xo.html and so on....
Love your reviews! Found from the 458 video and then saw the last one for the Aston Martin. Really connected because I have both of these in my garage! My V12 is the manual and a blast!
These will skyrocket in value someday, future classic without a doubt.
This comment aged well!
I like the title, "Time To Buy" for a series! Great content as always. You deserve 1M subs👍
I enjoy watching seen through glass on Sunday. He is a great car enthusiastic I am surprised he hasn't got more subscribers
You are definitely right with the usability of the 458 as a younger guy. I drove a 458 from my driving school and have to say, in automatic mode, everybody can stamp on it without regretting it instantly and feel pretty safe.
Well it's fair to say, this video aged well. This actually gave me idea of buying mine!
How did u buy one
The 458 is my ultimate dream Ferrari. If I can own one some day, I will know I've made it! You made it look so good in this video, your cinematography is always on point!
Always enjoy seeing your video's Sam....Great to see you out and about again...Cheers
Cheers matey
Your little side to side foot shuffle is really off putting 😂 I’m noticing you doing it more and more for some reason. The perfect combo for me would be a 458 engine in a 488 body but the 458 is still such a lovely package!
He’s still developing his style for presenting (especially since coming out of lock down)
Still growing as an automotive journalist. Appreciate the process, the passion from every move he makes
natbarron he’s one of my favourite car youtubers... it’s just feedback from someone who watches every single one of his videos. I won’t be appreciating every single move he makes though, that’s creepy.
This was a great video to watch. Exciting, informative, engaging and as always, the production quality is extremely high.
P.s would love to see you drive an original Vanquish 😂
It's my favorite car ever. Great meeting you at Quail a couple of years ago!
The sound only shots, thanks !!
I see the thumbnail, I match it with the title and the only word I can come up with is: YES! 🙏🏼💯
The 458 sounds amazing.
It sounds good but no as good as the 430, which doesn’t sound as good as the 360 :P
That’s true.
Seen Through Glass and none of those sound as good as the 355 ;)
The beauty of a naturally aspirated engine is that you can put a turbo in it hahaahhahaha
Flat and monotone to me compared to past Ferrari’s and other V8s.
I recently drove one on a track day. It is amazing. The ferrari 458 is incredible
Great series and interesting vid. Love the content.
YES! Naturally Aspirated all the way!
Says the guy with m3 as a profile pic.
@@oscartejura4887 bmw best engines are naturally aspirated so i dont see ur point
@@ripppking because the m3 is turbo 🤯
This is such a beauty of a car. My favourite looking modern Ferrari 🤤
Why are your videos so much better than everyone else.
I remember when this came out and it’s still my dream car, (well, excluding the 430 Scud). If I had the cash, nothing would exclude me from having one.
Absolutely Sam!
love the speedy on the wrist bud! keep up the good work
One of the most beautiful car ever made. No holes all over the place. Just smooth lines which, I think, makes it more sleek and more beautiful than most new cars.
this is a very good idea for a series, much more sustainable then the usual "buy a car, modify, sell, repeat" every 5 months that other car youtubers are doing
The 458’s looks are timeless... I think it would be an epic buy!!
The 458 is a truly awesome piece of kit. I´ve been the proud owner of a spider for 4 years/30k kilometers now and the thing just makes me smile every day.
As I understand it has been the last car designed by Pininfarina before Ferrari moved the design in-house and I just love the looks of it. If you´re looking for a raging, beautiful V8 Ferrari and don´t need to be the fastest in any given situation (I once came across an Alpina B3 on the autobahn and I didn´t see the light of day :)), you´ll love it.
The 458 looks so good now as it was leaps and bounds prettier than everything else at the time and thanks to its design, holds its own today. Also helps that the 458 is a screaming naturally aspirated V8. Still looks cleaner the 488 and they both look a damn sight nicer than the F8
Enjoy your videos.. i own a 2015 458 and love it! fantastic car.. Do you know how many 458 itallia were built in 2015. I cant seem to find a breakdown of production by year and model. Thank you.
Best content you’ve done. What a car! Not just a future classic but an instant classic the day it was launched. Great videography too. What’s with the ‘wiggle’? Lol
Stunning car, I’ve always loved the 458. Not sure what’s happened to me though because as soon as I see a 991 or 992 Porsche, I instantly gravitate towards it!
Me too... I thought that just me having these kind of symptoms.
@@mrmallkmus me too
Great publicity video for Alexanders Prestige.
Loved that AM Vanquish V12!
Love it!! P.s. When you test drive cars from a dealer like Alexander's, are you covered on their trade insurance or do you need to sort your own out??
I enjoyed the podcast 👍🏻😆
I'm also a Ferrari nut!
And more recently ..Porsche
Love all content
Would love to see you buy one of these Sam! I think a cream interior would be better with the Rosso Corsa paint though!😍
I can’t believe that you only have 500k subs. I love your channel so much🚘🚦👌
Sam, I've been watching since the TT days....you're still my favorite!
That sound... whoa...love it from the front.. love it from the back .... it’s profile is missing side scoops or something
458 is one of my dream cars. I'd love to see a video on the singer-esque aston Martin vanquish valiant
DO IT, one of the most beautiful cars ever made. After 10 years it still looks breathtaking imo. Timeless design
I've loved Ferrari ever since I was 15 when my late father bought a 308GTB and always thought I'd end up with one.Now I'm in a position to buy one I end up getting a 911gts but still love 458
That's a total babe of a car, the end. The looks alone make it better then the Ferrari's that came after. Great video as always, so fair play. Be cool to see you get into an F8 at some point also.
458 👌 can always remember the Top Gear episode in Madrid where they street raced around a derelict housing estate.. 458/Audi R8/McLaren if I remember correctly.
As I have driven all of the options in the video, I would either pick the Vanquish or the 991.1, depending on the need.
How do you only have 486k followers? Your content is so much better then so many larger channels. I don’t understand.
Just bought this one. Can't wait.
Thank you STG, marvellous 458 and just out of curiousty, how about organizing a rally Ferrari 308 GTB for the 2021 Snow Tour 😃
Finally Sams videos are getting some more views he so deserves ! Still deserves more tho 👏🏼
Forgot to mention, in 2013 the Italia was given a software update which gave the car a more aggressive throttle response and gear change. Build quality is impeccable. A few very early cars were affected by the glue that was used to attach the wheel well liner to the body getting hot and catching fire.
Amazing review Sam!
I feel in the future they should continue the turbocharged v8s but the special edition (scuderia, speciale, pista equivalent) should have hybrid NA v8s. They'd outdo competitors, keep up with emission, and have the sound that everyone wants. They'd become so much more desirable too
My favorite car ever. I drove one in Maranello. What a dream 😍 Unfortunately never affordable.
The 458 is one of the best looking cars ever made. I think this car is an investment, because it is the last N/A Ferrari. At least in this model series. How you said. Future classic for sure. Can't belive it is already 10 years old.
Awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻
Love the 458 stunner
Totally agree. That's why I bought a 458 Spider for my wife 1.5 yrs ago. Future classic. BTW the F8 Tributo drive awesome. It's like a 458 and a 720s had a baby. Incredible! You have to drive it to appreciate it.
i bought one last month, white and black roof, love it
Great series 🔥
economic uncertainty aside. It has been very interesting to watch the pricing of the 458 especially following the 488 & now F8. it has held on well and if you ask me will likely fall a touch further to around £120k, good low km examples will continue to be in demand for all the reasons you state. it's a flippin' awesome car!!
Video taking is over the top.
Has anybody noticed that the subtitles for the intro are almost always wrong, and in a different way every time? It's quite amazing... This time: "however nano welcome to seen through glass" 😂
I definitely buy one of these! It’s so perfectly balanced. I actually don’t appreciate modern overpowered monsters.
You're right about the carbon seats. Lower, more comfortable and look so much better. Must have option
I like the idea for this series
Thanks for the video. The 458 is my dream car too. BTW, the Turbo S will be faster off the line than the 458 but that's about it. The 458 being lighter will definitely keep up, if not beat it.
The 488 and F8 are fantastic supercars, but i'd have the 458. Such a lovely looking car and it's power isn't completely over the top like those newer cars.
will you do this type of video for the challenge stradale?
Why is it worth the price? it was answered at 2:45 ... Appreciate how you make reviews so entertaining and engaging. Keep it up Sam. Waiting for plenty more videos to come.
Agree completely Sam, 458 performance is all you ever need realistically on the road.
The later cars from all the supercar brands are just in an arms race to the detriment of enjoyable road driving, using just 10 or 20% of the available performance.
458 also looks very svelte compared to 488 and especially F8.
Cheers,
Chris
Really really marvellous.. to thanks bro 🤓💪💕
You should definitely get this one, the leather condition was spot on ❤
Naturally aspirated, great sound and cleaner lines than the newer cars, that’s the appeal, buying one now however might be a mistake I think they will take a big drop significantly in value for at least the next year given current circumstances, great car tho!
