This is achieved with cylinder deactivation technology and the CAMTRONIC valve-lift adjustment system, which deactivates four cylinders under partial load.

Designed in-house by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the 458 MM Speciale was built on the chassis and running gear of the 458 Speciale. Stylistically, the said owner was looking for extremely sporty lines and specified a ‘visor’ effect for the glasshouse: A black-painted A-pillar, very much in the style of the 1984 Ferrari GTO, helps provide a wraparound effect between the windscreen and side windows which melds into a single, seamless glass surface. This solution simultaneously lowers the roofline and lends an aerodynamic sleekness to the full volume of the swept-back C-pillar.
