After the leaked Ferrari 458 Spider roof design, another document shows the Ferrari 458 Italia pricing, coming it at 162,900 euros, before taxes. It’s not an official price, and will obviously vary widely depending on what combinations you choose from the 458 Italia configurator. The price makes it an expensive little number for most of us, but not if you’re a true Ferrari fan and plan on purchasing one.

Here’s looking at the new roof for the Ferrari 599 or Ferrari 458 spider version! This seems to be a patent application, complete with drawings, of a targa-type roof, and according to Ferrari sources, it comes direct from Maranello.

For the engineers among you, check out the design of this folding hard top roof, which then nestles behind the vehicle’s occupants. Logical deductions based on the drawing, would suggest the spider version of the 458 Italia, but as Ferrari says, the design regards the roof part only.

According to the Ferrari source, every design has a drawing, even the ones that don’t go into production. It’s tantalising stuff, and there’s no knowing how these drawings got onto the web, but they’re better than any teaser any marketing department came up with. Literally. Our source below quotes the original story from the Dutch and the Ferrari source information from the Italians.

Here are new renders of the Ferrai 458 Spider, after confirmations that the brand new Ferrari 458 Italia would be made in an open-top version in the future. The 458 Spider will appear a couple of years down the track, likely picking up from where the California leaves off. These renderings are probably a bit premature, in light of the couple of years waiting time we all have, but there’s no harm in dreaming.

Joy for Ferrari fans as president Montezemolo confirms that the Ferrari 458 Spider will be produced. He also revealed more news on the 458 Italia, saying it follows the 430 Scuderia in having full steering wheel commands. 458 pricing is 197,000 euros with deliveries commencing January. The 458 Spider version won’t appear before a couple of years.

Ferrari is looking to expand its offerings, making a greater range for fans. The California follows a GT model, while the 458 is intended as the supersports model. The spider should prove to be a popular development.
