But the dearth of surprise did not stop the tongues drooling and eyes goggling once we clapped eyes on the new 458 Spider earlier than its debut at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show.
The Italia remains our favorite junior supercar, having swept the board at the 2010 Performance automotive of the Year take a look at and fought off a challenge from the McLaren MP4-12C. and that we fancy currently it will sound even higher, with less sound deadening between your ears and therefore the 4499cc flat-plan crank V8 and its angry 562bhp at 9 thousand rpm.
Ferrari 458 Spider: the main points
Interestingly, the 458 roadster is that the initial mid-engined supercar within the world to supply a folding exhausting prime. Sadly, no images are offered of the flop-atop roof however - they are saving that for the Frankfurt show.
The all-aluminium roof can roll out from below the flying buttresses; we have a tendency to presume there'll be a pop-up rear glass window too. The metal hood is 25kg lighter than a canvas roof, says Ferrari, and it will take fourteen seconds to flick between coupe and convertible.
It's said to be compact, too: Ferrari says there's atiny low bags bench behind the front seats to hold many baggage.
How fast is that the new Ferrari 458 Spider?
Pretty speedy, as you expect. Maranello claims a prime finish beyond 198mph and 0-62mph in but three.4 seconds. Not that economy are going to be prime of your priorities, however the combined average - due to stop-start - stands at 24mpg and CO2 is 275g/km.
That light-weight roof is fascinating, trimming the penalty for going al fresco in a very Ferrari: Ferrari says the Spider's dry weight is 1430kg, compared to 1380kg for the Italia coupe.
And the 458 Spider is not the solely new 458 on the horizon; we have a tendency to reported recently that a Scuderia successor can arrive in 2012.
