Ferrari 488 Pista First Drive Review!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- This is the Ferrari 488 Pista! Ferrari's latest light weight, driver focused, mid-engined supercar developed for the track! The Ferrari 488 Pista effectively has the engine from Ferrari's 488 Challenge car, resulting in an increased power output of of 710hp vs the 488 GTB and a kerb weight of just 1385kg, 90kg less than the 488. All of this results in a 0-62mph time of just 2.9 seconds!
Numbers are one thing however, in this video I discover just what the turbo generation of track focused Ferrari's is all about!

![2020 Ferrari 488 Pista Night POV Drive - [4K]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n6FVN19mm9o/mqdefault.jpg)
The most beautiful car Ferrari made since the Laferrari...
True
what about F12 TDF ?
@@ericzhu7758 nah the 812 looks better
Wtf dude
458 speciale says Hi
Lovely shade of red, beauuutiful hand painted Scuderia shields and got even if it's twin-turbo it sounds so good!
Get asked to come out to Dubai to drive the Ferrari 488 Pista. Casual day 😂
Cephas Makuzva looking forward to that day 😂
Casual dream lol
Yes, but the car will help to promote the channel and NVN so it's all interlinked business.
If not for EU regulation regarding the car engine, I think ferrari will continue making a naturally aspirated engine.
This is just my opinion
100%
I'm not so convinced. Shortly after the 458 Speciale came out, Ferrari engineers said that the naturally-aspirated, flat-plane crank V8 was at a dead end (at least for the time being). As their prototype engine began to reach 5 liters, the secondary imbalances became too intense, and the engine ran incredibly poorly. Hence, they said, unless they go to a V10 (which is more Lamborghini's territory), turbocharging was the only way forward in terms of power since they couldn't increase displacement.
**To answer this critique before it arises, yes, I'm aware the Ford Voodoo is 5.2l and has a flat-plane crank. I can also say, having been in a GT350R just last week, that the engine runs incredibly poorly and that they have A LOT of problems (the one I was in had the air conditioning compressor go out THAT DAY, and it had less than 4500 miles on the clock). The Voodoo also had to be detuned because of its vibrations and, consequently, makes no where near as much HP/L as did recent Ferrari NA V8s.
What are you talking about lol The Mercedes-AMG M156 6.2-liter V8 from the SLS AMG featured a cross-plane crank. Even Koenigsegg Jesko has moved to a 5lt flat plane crank....I am pretty sure that's slightly more highly strung that a low reving yank unit....
MAxx MAxx absolutely right about that, big shame indeed.
@@Slapbladder FLAT-PLANE being the main feature of my comment. The Mercedes M156 (the engine in the SLS) has balance shafts on the crank like all Cross-Plane engines in order to smooth out secondary imbalances. The Jesko engine, like the upcoming project 1 Mercedes, won't be designed to go many miles before a rebuild. As long as the engine idles and makes the power, I'm sure Christian doesn't care if you have to rebuild it every 3,000 miles (because, realistically, Koenigseggs don't get that many miles put on them anyway). Ferraris, by comparison, HAVE to have longevity, even if the first owner doesn't put that many miles on the engine. That's the difference.
I like how the Steering wheel still resembles my 458 Italia Thrustmaster....So when I'm gaming I can still Dream....Ha Ha !!
The gear changes on this car is absolutely awesome!!
Location....Magnificent!
Car...Inspiring!
Shots "at speed" on the open road... A fantasy come to life!!
Well done sir, well done.
10/10 - checked my headphone battery like 12 times because of the beeping
Mikey I kept thinking it was my fridge until I read your comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Certainly a beautiful looking car, would love to see a Pista vs F8 comparison since they have pretty much same engine and power.
F8 has a little less power and weighs more. But the F8 special series will no doubt destroy the Pista but most likely will not win me over the Pista
@James Crain The Pista was and is faster than the Speciale. the Speciale is faster than the Scuderia. The Scuderia is faster than the Challenge Stradale. No doubt the F8's special series is going to have to be faster. So all I am saying is that you are a moron
@@iamnotluisokay the engine power is identical. The Tributo will be faster in a straight line due to the less drag!
I managed a day as a passenger in one of these on the Supercar Driver Tartan Florio last week. Such a special, special time. I adore the looks of this. Power delivery likened to the 675 LT, with essence of "I will kill you soon" from the Speciale!
I should be in bed. Instead, I watched this. Not unhappy with the sacrifice. Great video. Now want to drive the Pista.
Wow
You could watch it in bed too. Would be a win-win.
At least Dave offered you a build slot!!! I’ll mention that to him next time I’m up at Stratstone! Now it’s got the sound to match the mind bending performance! The colour matches the performance
Lucky man Mr. JWW
I wonder if Ferrari will lend you an F8 Tributo to do a comparison test to see what they are like side by side. That could be a really incredible video👌👍
I love the way Ferrari’s cars shift. I’ve heard that similar upshift sound with the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Ferrari F12tdf and Ferrari 812 Superfast.
James Crain
I would’ve thought the Veyron 16.4 wins. However, there’s a video where the 488 Pista does 10.1 secs at 141mph. The Veyron 16.4 has done 10.1 secs at a higher trap speed. Now why that is interesting is because the 488 Pista has a slower claimed 0-200km/h time than the Veyron 16.4. The Veyron 16.4 does it in 7.3 secs.
I’ve seen a video of a prototype Pista doing 6.9 secs but that was downhill, and that would match the time that the LaFerrari does it in. I highly doubt the 488 Pista is as quick as the LaFerrari.
Just hearing you talk and react to these machines shows how passionate you are 😁
More beautiful than F8!
"constantly working the box" - nailed it Mr JWW
Hey, I actually drove past you in the R8 last Friday while you were making this video. Super cool to see the Pista going through its paces. Just love your channel. Keep it up.
Million Dollar Men I hope I can someday be like you guys where you can buy supercars for yourself.
@@datujaasserzachariaivcanda7848 Thanks. just keep the motivation and focus and Im sure you can do it.
You should make a video of the w204 c63 amg for the modern classics series
Gas Pedal Subscribe that’s the point. It’s meant to move sideways and spend half it’s life span in the shop. That’s what makes it brilliant.
Gas Pedal Subscribe go drive one first its a very nice car and petrolhead like drifting and cars that sound nice you just sounded like an idiot but ok man thats your opinion
Gas Pedal Subscribe thats your personal opinion, that doesn’t mean that people who like those cars are not petrolhead because i am a petrolhead since im a little kid and i like a ton of different cars with different purposes, a petrolhead is not a person who only likes to drive a track focused car.
@@charliem9941 eat shit Charlie
Yes,I was waiting for your take on the Pista !
Yes was waiting for this. Sam from seenthroughglass just post his review of the spider yeaterday from Italy
Brilliant summary of the differences between the 458 Speciale, the 488 GTB and the Pista.
Such a complete package in my opinion, I'd imagine it gives you ample confidence to push your driving capabilities. I was just over on Paul's channel watching him describe the LP640, such a strikingly different experience. Thanks for the video mate 👍
Next video “*speccing my 488 pista*” !!
How you tell the difference of 2 seconds in a lap makes 20 seconds in ten lap is just brilliant...
Absolutly fantastic car! I think it is one of the best looking Ferraris. Love how you had the standard Pista in Sunny Dubai and Sam (STG) had the option to put the roof down but was in Rainy italy haha! Have you swap channels lol.
Never really been a Ferrari fan till the F12 TDF witch I love and now this Pista has done the same,The shape with the nose aero just makes it much more than the standard 488GTB,I love it in the grey with yellow accents 👌
I think this car may just be a 720S killer and I'm not talking about about a drag race (even though it would hang very well until the downforce comes into the play). It sounds better, its more visceral, the handling is sharper, and it would smack it on a track, plus it doesn't seem like every RUclipsr is getting one so its a bit more unique. Well done FerrarI.
great video but my god that warning beeping was driving me nuts!
its a mandatory speed limit exceed alert that all cars in UAE are fitted with
Yeah that speed limit fuse would be getting pulled on day one.
@@veemacks7255 the beeps and bongs we get over here don't occur while driving unless you're not wearing your seat belt or you choose to use lane departure alert. That speed limit bong is govt mandated apparently and occurs any time you past a posted speed limit. That's a completely different ballgame.
I was running around my house seeing if the microwave was running or the oven or my wifes hair straightener!
I kept checking my microwave!!
Robert Mitchell from Apex is considering selling his to try and move into something like a Senna or 600LT. His spec is wicked, maybe you should give him a call.
You'r sunglasses is perfect for that interior lol black and yellow shine 😂 + you look a bit like it superhero haha
Great timing for a great video. Watching this after a tiring and long day 💯
Still prefer your old speciales. I still rewatch your old videos with your grey one! That was stunning! You should have kept that one!
Those painted shields look so so good.
Just the end of working day here, nice time to watch a new vid from Mr JWW.
Wasn't a fan at the beginning. After seeing it in person a few times in different specs it quickly became my favourite modern Ferrari
A great honest review, as usual editing, angles etc is superb too. Side note the close up of the sunglasses shot. Perfection. I've always liked the Pista and the looks. Can't wait to drive one myself.
The Pista is obviously my favourite car in the whole world. It does seem quite slow on paper but when I really think about 7.6 seconds getting to 124 mph or 200 km/h is mind-blowingly quick for it's price
By far hands down the most spec'd out and race oriented supercar I've seen to date. Taking lessons learned from previous gens improving character, drama and soul...
Really great video Mr.JWW ..I was searching for a video of a 488 pista and by far this is the best video I have seen .Thank you!
the whistle sounds on the fly-bys...Straight up fire!!!
Get one! One of my favourite cars is the 488 GTB, first supercar I ever drove. The pista is next level
James this is one of my Favorite Ferraris!! My Spec is Bianco Avus with Rosso Corsa Stripes, Giallo Modena Scuderia shield, Giallo Modena Calipers, Rosso FX Alcantara, Yellow Rev Counter, Daytona Racing Carbon Seats, Carbon Floor Plates with Mats. I had my rims Powder Coated Rosso Corsa and All trim Carbon Fibre.
Looks very much like a Scuderia in that spec. Epic!
Just listening to the up and downshift noise was a joy!
I imagine you can really get a good sense of the car on all these dead straight roads... James will say any car is the best he's ever driven no matter the brand just to stay in the good books of manufacturers.
Toby Brown , don’t fool yourself. When he doesn’t like something or feels it’s not up to par, he for sure shares it with us. He will tell you when something falls short.
Mama Mia la migliore Notifica 👌🏻
i love that sound
bring that beauty to the states for a photoshoot! I still haven't shot a Pista, such a gorgeous car. This spec is perfect.
Great video! Thanks for posting! Sure looks like they nailed it again with the Pista! Even the sound, though different, tells your brain there is serious energy here and thus, it’s engaging and exciting! Thanks again!
James would you consider hosting a rally? Something with some track experiences nice drives & hotels perhaps devoid of some of the gumball antics while fun and emblematic of their experience I feel there is room for something different? I think as an outgrowth of the wrapping car community locations of NVN ? Would you entertain that as an idea? No I do not have a rally company it's just an idea. Thoughts?
blueferrari 458 nice car man
Honestly I was never a fan of the 458 platform however the Pista is the first car of the platform which I sat up and took notice. Beautiful car.
Think this is one of the best reviews I've seen for ages.
THAT ROAD LOOK SMOOTH
Well pista means racetrack or circuit etc so I can see why they made it more aggro. Thankies for the gorgeous car shots and awesome review!
My opinion is that the pursuit for performance has lead the Ferrari engineers to forcefully go turbocharged. Its not psssible for a NA engine to have 720 bhp. Mclaren has started the pursuit of laptimes which has forced other manufacturers to go turbocharged.
Ahmed Farhan yes it is if they upped the displacement , messed with the intake runners and cam profile. Corvettes and vipers make 675-760 crank hp n/a all day. The 6.3 liter amg engine can make 700+ hp with just headers and
A tune n/a.
m8 u are the god in youtube, i shall confirm u are the GOAT of this platform
The s duct looks and is amazing, what it does for the front end is magical. It's probably that which weights up the steering. Another excellent summation of the Pista James, looking forward to seeing this on track 😊👌👏👏👏👏👏👏
Petrol ⛽️ heads dreams. What a gorgeous piece of machinery... Ferrari is the masters at making magic happen.
Just the thumbnail deserves the like
Just saw a blacked out one in Glasgow. Absolutely stunning !
Liked before watching, because James always delivers. Ciao
What a stunning car, seeing this on track would be brilliant! Perhaps the addition of a racing drivers opinion of the car on track would be an interesting talking point. Not to take nothing from you James as you are a great driver yourself!
Great video, I love the Pista and it's so underrated. I would take this over a 675LT or 720S anyday.
eichler721 I agree, but technically this is in the slot of the 600LT. Which even then the pista wins it for me.
@@diegoaponte8512 ya the 600LT is a good car but the Pista has been proven already to be faster so it would be my pick as well
Best sounding V8 turbo in my book but without driving it, the star of the show is THAT gearbox. WOW!
TD Immanuel I think the amg GT-R will have something to say about that
Baldeagle301 the AMG bi-turbo V8 is fantastic engine no doubt. But it’s not raspy farty pops and bangs are fun but this thing is a proper race car engine
Just watched MrJww video of the F12 in tunnel, now watching this video. F12 sounds soo much better!
Quality (4K) content as always James 👍🏽
Gotta love the 4K quality. 👌
What is crazy to think is that the F8 Tribute is basically this car just a bit softer around the edges, I can't even imagine how the F8 "speciale" will be like.
the turbo whistle is perfect from the outside 😍
Well done on showing the beauty, the drive, and love of this car! PS. I'm glad you didn't put any silly rock music to hide the gorgeous sound of this car
I like that the video started in car immediately.
It almost sounds like the gears are too short. The car is a masterpiece but imagine what it would be like if Ferrari built a mid engined V8 track car with a proper carbon tub. The weight reduction and performance gain would be substantial. You've not seen the track battle Autocar did around Anglesey with the 600LT and GT3RS you have to watch it.
James you should talk to Misha about taking a Pista on the track.
And Robert Mitchell, because it is his and he drives it regularly around the Ring.
It was great to see you review this beauty!
I just noticed at 13:26 that the rear view mirror has the slogan written in Farsi. I bet it reads that objects in the rear view mirror are closer than they appear. Too funny!!
Anyone else think this car driving past the camera sounds like one of those little foam nerf rockets you play catch with?
Giles Benham turbo whistle
What a fabulous car. Thank you James as always brilliant commentary.
Obviously wasn’t filmed on the E311! Keep up the good work 👍👍👍
2 seconds a lap? I'd rather sacrifice a fraction of speed for the thrill of a NA engine. Like you've said in previous videos it's not all about lap times it's how it makes you feel.
This is the most beautiful car I have ever seen...and I’m a lambo lover
Do you know what is the brand of the sunglasses??? Love them so much😍
Still the best ! i love your videos !
What a great machine. Crazy quick! That build slot still available? Lol
Don’t think so, other purchases to prioritise anyhow 😜
Million dollar question : would you take this over a 458 speciale?
great video James as always. Just to correct you, the ordinary 488 does rev to 8k. I know because I have a 488 spider. Look it up.
The beeps you hear is a preset speed warning. Probably set at 80 mph I’d guess but it’s customizable.
Oh I would love to see you track a Pista. Great video, but I like your TDF much more 😉
I can't wait to see how it stacks up against the 720S on track, Matt Farah just did a track session in a 720S and it is epic.
Peep peep peep. For 300 thousand dollars I would get insane of those beeps every time.
Hi Mr JWW, please can you use a better voice mike. Voice is very quiet. Thank you sir, great reviews as ever!
I kept checking my dishwasher was closed "beep beep" Great video and great car. Or should I have started with "Another..." 👍👍
Cris Keay lol
Really want on, really can’t afford one. Mega car great video good work
Mr JWW - a class for himself
5th was waiting for this video. Awesome content as always James!!! Good on you mate!
Demonic turbo engine it's a must have car if u you have the money
Always incredible content James 💯🏁✌🏻
Beautiful car and another amazing video/review!!!
one of the best outro on this channel !!
another great video! thanks!! So the unanswered question, if you were choosing, would it be Speciale or Pista.....
Usually i am Not Interested in watching videos about ferrari, caused of its bad manufacture quality. But you get me excited with your rewies! Amazing Work 👌🏼
Thanks so much!
You should really get one. It’s amazing.
Also, always wanted to know, why do you wear those side blockers on all of your sunglasses?
