The Ferrari 488 GTB is one of the BEST cars Ever - One Take
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2016
- The Ferrari 488 GTB is, to put it bluntly, one of the best cars I've ever driven, at any price, ever. It's mind-blowingly fast, docile, easy to drive slowly and quickly, and comfortable enough for daily use or a long road trip. Its 662 HP Twin-Turbo V8 makes all the right sounds and produces more shove than mere mortals could ever ask for, and it manages that power with a completely seamless traction control system that you won't even know is there, until you turn it off and either perform a heroic drift, or a massive crash.

![Ferrari 488 GTB REVIEW *330km/h* on AUTOBAHN [NO SPEED LIMIT!] by AutoTopNL](/img/1.gif)
"Bluetooth takes a while to connect". Guess that rules it out for me ...sheesh.
lmao! haha
+Johny Piston never want to use that shit... i learned from a friend it's a bad idea when your wifes in the car and a... "friend" whos a girl calls you ;)
+Nik Brudar Nik Brudar. Watching MY one-take. This one is on MY subscription feed.
+Johny Piston Me too
+Nik Brudar You're totally right, man - I'm sorry. We will share my subscription feed videos. But just so you know, they're still my videos.
It’s amazing how he pushes these car fast while staying under the 50MPH speed limit
Shit. He is in 50 at 5k rpm in first.lol goes you never drove an gt car. When hes in second well over 100mph he hits third in these cars quite a bit. Pay attention. He says the gear hes in sometimes.
I always obey the speed limits in weekend country driving with a 911 or S4. I try to keep it under 3 times the limit.
@@johnanthony5931 went right over your head didnt it?
John Anthony lol second wont hit 100 in any of these cars 😂
@@johnanthony5931 ill just assume youre being sarcastic
What makes this guy so much better than every other RUclips car guy is that he can out drive every one of them, and he could care less about what anyone thinks. These other guys are putting around L.A. having no idea how to even shift a DSG and they care more about shows and who's seeing them drive down the road. This guy is out there alone just absolutely killing it. He wants to pass cafe bikes that are doing 120. He puts each car through its paces.. He's a great driver and he loves to drive. He does not care what anyone else thinks, he's in it for the experience.
"One of the best cars I've ever driven"...already sold coming from someone with as much seat time as yourself. Beautiful car.
I find myself agreeing with this more and more as time goes on. The Pista is something else but I don't think anything else comes close for the an all rounder at the money they are now.
"Everybody should buy these."
Ayy lmao. That's the spirit!
car throttle sponsoring the smoking tire daaayuummm
WTF is your profile pic
The sound feels like a 458 that hasn't been pushed all the way to its max rpm
+Francis Arnaud I don't know exactly what max RPM ferrari sounds like, but I'll take Matt's word for it when he talks about taking it to 8000 in the video.
That's because of the turbo chargers. They take some of the noise away, as well as not revving as high
the redline difference is of a 1000rpms. 8000rpm's for the 488 9000 for the 458. not a huge difference though. the sound is different because of different engine designs.
meteoricthrone
Fire Blade its called a flat plane crank. doesnt sound like a conventional v8 because of that
"Wow, there is a motorcyclist behind me going at it, I think I may have to let him by..." *Mashes the Pedal*
The correction was spot on! As a scientist myself, I appreciate someone willing to admit they were wrong, in public. It didn't detract anything from the video either, IMO. AND we got some additional cool info about the car.
Wait. You’re something of a scientist yourself?
Hard to believe that the 458 is already 6 years old
I remember when it came out I thought a more amazing car could never be created
+MegaSturrup i cried, when i was informed the end of the naturally aspirated 4.5l v8 in the 458 and that they'll implement the new 4.0l biturbo v8 in the new 488gtb. I mean ferrari could have been waiting with that downsizing shit.
I still find it hard to believe even today, its aged so damn well
11 years as of 2021
13 now
This was a treat to watch! Can't wait to get our hands on one!
Love you guy's systems for the gtr... But ferraris are already perfect.
+RJ Echols I'd have to disagree. Most modern Ferraris can be improved by certain exhausts.
+RJ Echols Doesn't hurt to give it a go. You might be pleasantly surprised!
well if you prove me wrong then i'll buy one for my 488 ;) lol jk i'm broke
That guy on the bike behind you woke up and said I don't care if I DIE TODAY.
I know for damn sure matt shat his pants at 6:37
+Ramy Warda Yeah, I thought for sure that was 5-0 too.
Damn white cars take pride in pulling off to the side to troll the rest of us.
lmao! you hear it in his voice, his balls dropped thinking that was a cop 😂😂😂
lmfaoooo
"Everybody should buy these" LoL! I wish I could!!
God, the carbon by itself is like double the price of my car...
hi
+Kevin Berberi he said double the price of "my" car, reading is fundamental
+Kevin Berberi Read his comment again..
+Kevin Berberi he's saying the carbon on the ferrari costs twice as much as his own car
What was Kevin's original comment haha, im curious
Love the 488 GTB! It's absolutely amazing in every way, a truly magnificent supercar. Ferrari is simply the best!
Just reviewed the 488, great job as usual
Gotta understand that theres always going to be people whining and complaining about something. It's 2016 and people are still whining that 911s are liquid cooled. Ok yes, the 488 doesn't sound as good as a 458, but it still sounds pretty damn good and its a better car in just about every other way. Also keep in mind, the 288 GTO and F40 were TT v8s, and those are considered by many to be the best cars to ever be assembled by the firm, so this is by no means sacrilege.
The 288 and F40 had turbos yes but for different purposes. They were for adding hp to small engines for bug power. Not fuel efficiency like the 488 is.
Clayton Cortina There is unfortunately no defeating regulations anymore. Ferrari did it for as long as they could and sadly I see lamborghini eventually going that direction as well.
+Dantheman yep. The damn Euro market and regulations. Well at least the 458 is going to only appreciate in value now. Especially the Speciale and Aperta versions
Clayton Cortina The speciale will probably one day be in the 7-8 figure range
Might just be my favorite one take yet. In this video, you seem much more casual and relaxed, even compared to some of your other one takes. It could be do to the fact that you've had time to get comfortable with the car, that the car is just so good, or that you don't have to worry about holding a conversation with a passenger, but I like it a lot. This longer, more casual form of video is really great when the car itself is so damn cool. Keep it up, man.
Driving a supercar at speed is very easy. Driving some crazy tuner car at speed is much different. There's always some component, some weak link somewhere, that keeps the car from feeling as comfortable at speed.
love how you did that edit intake- appreciate the thorough journalism. One of the reasons I have always enjoyed your work!! keep it up!
I'm going to go ahead and guess your average speed on this one was about... jail MPH
:)
The speed limit was observed at all times 😂😂😂
+froshmasta hahaha
+Cornwall1888 One can observe the speed limit and not follow it, haha.
+froshmasta More like death* MPH lmao
+froshmasta You can go to jail for speeding in the usa? :o
God damn is that nice.. Ferrari is still very much Ferrari
These are the best car reviews I've seen on You Tube and I've seen a zillion of them including probably every Jay Leno's Garage. This guy doesn't waste your time like some others and he knows how to drive really well. I think I read somewhere yesterday that there's no more smoking tire and that makes me sad. I'd rather have read there's no more something else other than this guy. Thanks for producing videos without fluff. I wish you well in future endeavors.
Seriously, you're one of a kind. Well done nad thanks for the joy you give us. Nikos, Greece.
Matt Farah, I just want to congratulate you on the success of TheSmokingTire channel lately. I've been subscribed since this first kicked off and I'm glad I stuck around. Your content is very enjoyable to watch and I feel it is still not even at its peak yet. Keep up the great work! Also, I do miss you on the /Drive channel!
Magnificent video Matt.. of a Magnificent car... on some fricking amazing roads!
The roads are so amazing I had to get them into a Sim Racing game.
The game is Assetto Corsa... The track is called L.A. Canyons :)
A big big thank you for showing me these roads Matt!
Great review! Love the passion and excitement while you were driving. I laughed myself as I watched you laugh when you hit the throttle. I hope to one day get the chance to drive one myself. Looks like an insane amount of fun! Cheers!
Loved the long video on such a special car like this. Could watch you drive a 488 for hours!
exactly why people hate bikes
people hate bikes? news to me. I love mine.
That motorcyclist was a d*ck for not letting him by on the two lane. Great vid. Thorough review and explanation of almost every aspect of the car. Thanks, thumbs up and subscribed.
"Magnificent" is the word I described the 458, the 488 must be out of this world!
Great video as always!
Great video and review! I loved that you really drove the car and put it through its paces. I've once driven the Ferrari California in Italy and was really impressed with the performance. But the 488 is a lot faster. I can only imagine the thrill of driving that car. Must be exhilarating!
I remember an engineer talking about how they alleviated most the of turbo noise in the induction sound to punctuate the engine note. I think they did a fine job!
What was up with those bikers? Deliberately blocking two lanes so you cannot pass.. Great attitude.
Dude - you have no apologizes to make, you are driving real cars or real roads under real conditions. I love it, I don't watch all the videos...but ones like this with the Ferrari 488 or any Mustang video and I will be watching. I know you are having fun all the time, thanks so much for doing this!!
YAAAAS! Great one take. Please keep cranking these out, Matt.
"i love it. i want to have its children."
damn, he just read my mind.
This is a nice looking Ferrari, but I would have liked it more if it had a naturally aspirated V10 that sounds like the old Formula One cars.
Agreed
Ah yes a production car with a 3L V10 that revs to a casual 19,000 RPM.
I'm sure that won't have a warranty longer than 15 hours as the engines that made that great sound lasted a race weekend and that was it.
There's also the fact that Ferrari has never used a V10 in their road cars and only made a V10 in their Formula 1 cars because of the regulations in Formula 1 at the time.
With the way emissions standards are now you will never see another new naturally aspirated and non-hybrid Ferrari ever again.
It's sad, but it's the only reality.
+Number Two Sorry, when was the last time Ferrari put a V10 in a road car? Oh yeah, never.
V12 berlinetta
The Ferrari FXX with its V12 sounded very similar to a V10 F1 car, even though it's engine was not able to rev 18,000rpm.
I guess all Ferraris can't sound exactly the same for model variation. Most people who can actually afford a Ferrari probably do not want an excessively loud exhaust sound anyway.
Great stuff. I also love what they've done with the engine settings, not having full performance in every gear but getting it gradually as you shift up. They say that makes it feel like a N/A engine.
Superb video as always, Matt. I love the way these one-takes are so natural feeling, and lacking in bullshit (cinematic bullshit, presentation bullshit, bullshit bullshit etc.). You and Chris Harris are the absolute top two car reviewers.
I am impressed it sounds good for a turbo
+Chris723 reminds me of the f40. twin-turbo small v8.
Car Throttle? What if my car doesn't have a smart phone?
+555 Gear But does your smartphone have a car?
+CockatooDude thats 488 !
get a tesla :P
those seats look like they were inspired by a superhero suit God i love ferrari's
I swear, I hope Matt Farrah never stops making these videos. These are so much more informative and more fun to watch than pretty much any other reviewer out there.
This seems like one of those amazing cars that goes so fast that you go into a corner thinking holy shit I'm going too fast but then brakes easily slow you down and the turn in is beautiful and the rush of excitement you get from making the turn not just okay but beautifully is overwhelming. I'm usually an American car guy but this thing looks awesome and I agree it seems way under priced.
I cannot believe that even after the sound of a TTV8 through a tunnel that Mercedes STILL didn't move over..smh
Not only a magnificent review of an exquisite car, but also recorded in one take? You've earned my respect. Subbed!
That road looks epic. Great tarmac, great curves, great scenery... and in that car... awesome!
Funny, they should issue those same licenses to Mustang owners who like to attend Cars and Coffee :D
I prefer the looks of the 458 but damn. Makes you think what's next? The 488 speciale should be quite entertaining.
+05 STi lol yeah tell me about it. Owners of that baby will give a new definition to the term rev matching as they scream from 0-60mph :P
The 458 is a bit plain without those intercooler intakes, sorry its really just got the sound.
Probably best sounding car ever,though.
So exhilarating watching you take those turns without having to slow up at all. Amazing performance.
Beautiful car. Good one take Matt, loved the run down. Haven't seen a ton on the 488 yet.
Fastest 18 minutes of my life. That sir was an epic drive. Thank you!
$12k paintjob and here I am never owning a CAR worth as much. :(
You don't even believe you'll ever have a car worth more than $12k?
Joey Arthur Zooberry I have low expectations.
+CJ DASHCAM you can do much much better. Why the fuck not
Brilliant to watch this driving footage on beautiful roads Matt thank you
I loved Matt's Public Service Announcement on the sticker price.
"give it the full potatoes" - Chris Harris
When I win the lottery of 50 million it is mine
Can I have one as well when you win? :D
MrBasinator sure
+Tyler Cochran Exactly haha. Thanks
Why the hell would you need 50 million? With 50 million, you could buy the holy trinity, a Koenigsegg, and a Chiron.
Hey, it’s two years later...did you win the lottery yet?
Fantastic ONE TAKE Matt. Very much love the car and I am trying hard to get my hands on one. Keep it up!
Great video! Thanks for showing me what else I will never have.
So is it "bang on" Matt? Is it? Just checking...
Kidding. Great review.
Not sure, but I think I got the impression you liked that car.
Thank-you for this!!! Came home from a shitty day at work and this totally put a smile on my face...well that and a bottle of wine.
I love the subtle harmony you can hear when it's idling...
More one takes on Hyper cars please! Also I know you may be trying, but could you get an Agera R or some koenigsegg, Please.
Where is he driving ? I'm from France and that's amazing to see that landscape !
Southern California canyons around LA
+robm425 Oh cool ! Thanks for the information :)
*****
Look on Google Maps for Angeles Crest Forest there are some nice roads in that area and that where specifically he drove I believe.
in a place where the speed limit in the turns is 30mph..that means 130 for the 488
The Los Angeles Forrest. .
I absolutely love this guys critque, this is my favourite car its just so useable and its looks are so much better that the 458 which is a great looking car itself, those intercooler inlets are so gorgeous and that power band
just wow.
Crazy I used to live there and rode that canyon every morning just to reset mentally before work. Miss those roads. You were cooking!
I just don't understand why he doesn't pass the slow moving cars on the left lane. I mean, he's already breaking the law by going over the speed limit. What is he afraid of?
+Swagg S Speeding is a given, but if he was crossing double yellows and endangering people NO ONE would give him their cars and he'd be out of a job. In his cars off camera I bet he does
Good point.
+Swagg S There's no proof that he's speeding. The speedometer is never clearly visible. Passing over the double-yellow would literally be filming incriminating evidence of himself. Also, a dick move.
+Colin Rose that bike blocking off that left double lane was sure a dick move!
+canonphoto it's whatever the jealousy would by insane and all he could do was block Matt, but more importantly he wanted to piss of a Ferrari owner but all he ended up doing was stopping the crazy cool biker from chasing Matt so he kinda fucked over his own team
Quick question, how many run ins with law enforcement do you have doing these One Take videos?
This question is asked on every damn video lol....I'm pretty sure he said he rarely ever gets pulled over while filming
Zero.
Keys to flying under the radar is knowing your environment, knowing the type of people that will drive the same road, and looking ahead as far as you can. Sometimes on coming traffic signal what's ahead. If you see a biker tap their helmet slow down.
I guess I'm just paranoid about cops on backroads from bad luck episodes several years back. I normally don't drive hard unless there's no one else on the road and I can physically see that there's not a cop sitting around a corner or something. Maybe once I get away from a cdl career I won't be as paranoid.
+TheSmokingTire knock on wood my friend. Those slithery fuckers are sneaky
I have to say Mr. Matt I love your videos. You are such a delight to watch. Keep up the good work!
Your Review gives a true Impression of the 488gtb ❤ have one, love it, keep it
How was the air conditioning?
matt, what car stayed with you the most after all these one takes?
Just watching the winding road is hypnotic. Makes me wish there were roads like this in my country.
Thumbs up for the honesty cut in clip.
The carbon itself costs 10 times as much as my car lol
+2013GTRNate lol my car was 7500$
That price.... Woah Ferrari chill out man
I had the pleasure of driving a 2017 488 gtb in Nero Daytona metallic and yes she is imazing to drive. She's coming home soon and will be sitting next to my 1199S panagali . Can't wait, thanks for the vid.
@9:14 is why I love one takes by Matt ......he stops his review and stomps on it in the tunnel for the sound ! awesome sound !!!
Car throttle was good, then they launched the app and all the 10 year olds got it. Now its just a load of skyline and gtr pictures. Shame.
That being said, this was an excellent one take, pretty cool car.
Hey Matt, I was wondering if there is any car that's been on your radar that you've yet to drive?
Tons!
+TheSmokingTire Matt, Have you thought about posting a list of things you'd like to drive, but haven't?
+ChemAndAdrenaline This would be cool! Pretty sure it would be very effective as well.
+TheSmokingTire I've never heard of a "Tons!" car... care to elaborate?
+Bob Last A vehicle that correlates to tons, we might have a semi truck in the next video..
awesome video... so glad Matt is getting support to drive the hell out of cool cars.
Wow awesome car! Good on you Matt for keeping a cool head on the road. No one cuts you slack when you're driving a prancing horse. Nowadays a lot of cars out pace some bikes and everyone's got to keep a cool head so we all can play and go home for dinner when we're done.
I'll give you my channel for that car
Are you the guy who used to make Clash of Clans videos
@@Panzer_Runner Lol that’s what I was wondering
How does it compare to the supercharged Huracan?
+Themayseffect I was thinking the same thing.
great video, i love how you drove that car 'spirited' in those awesome winding roads!
Damn that thing goes..Great vids by the way my favorite car channel, keep up the great work!
I would take 458 speciale over this any day
Same
+Ryan Robinson No doubt, hell even a normal 458 when considering some aspects, but the 488 is clearly faster. Just wish the 488 had the same scream the 458 had!
+Ryan Robinson fuck that. i'd get a 488 and a 991 GT3 for the same price.
+Ryan Robinson 100%
+Ryan Robinson I'd take an F-type and some play money
Try to source a F12 please!!
Variety makes me a fan . Hadn't thought of this car in a while and here Matt's taking us for a ride. Sit back, push the troubles away, it's gonna be a good day tater
Matt, I feel the same way about the 458 Spider; I've driven several of them, every time an event.
The buttons on the steering wheel at first seems like madness, but once you get your head around it and start to drive FAST, it becomes so intuitive that other cars just pale by comparison. Simply the best car ever built that sells under $1m.
The one downside to having such a crazy capable car is that your never get to see it's full potential on the road. Even with Matt driving it relatively hard the car sounds like it's working at like 30% of it's capacity. Is it better to drive a slower car fast, or drive a fast car slow?
exactly! but I guess it's the acceleration
Only poor people believe this
+jlopez1017d it's not difficult to afford a 400+HP sports car theses days.
+DCassidy42 How is that a downside? You're a fucking idiot if you're seeing the full potential of a Miata on a public road, so how is a Ferrari any different?
+koopatroopa187 Taking a car to it's limits is inherently satisfying and kind of the intention of having a sports car, no?. Not being able to do that kind of defeats the purpose of having something with such high limits. It's like owning a ford raptor and the most action it will see is a pothole. If you aren't using something to within 60% of it's potential what's the point? The Ferrari is amazing don't get me wrong, but you really need to get on a track to truly appreciate the car.
Meh it's a Ferrari press car so it's probably got 750hp at the crank lol. It's now easier for them to cheat as they can just turn the boost up :P
+Lawrence Timme lol no shit, just call them out on it; a la Chris Harris :D
thanks to the owner for letting you drive their car. What a beauty. I like watching your videos along with Chris Harris' because you see the racing potential versus street enjoyment. very different. enjoyed. thx
Ty Matt for this, top notch.
Matt how does it compare to the 458 Italia according to you? I've driven one and to me it was the most perfect car ever. Can't believe this beats it. :P
The 458 was perfect when I drove it. This is better.
+Max Power What?
+Max Power It says 458 Italia in his comment? Besides, you don't need to call it by it's full name, everyone knows what a 458 is.
+Max Power You're such a tool
+Max Power "People from Phoenix are called Phoenicians."
bikers ruining everything like always
Refreshing to see someone giving a car a full road workout without talking about where the radio controls are. Great review.
I still like the 458 better in terms of looks
Yes I agree aswell
I love the f430
+RazorFX I think the 488 looks miles better than a 458.
+W-James well it depends what people like, i like oranges you like apples :)
+RazorFX I like oranges
