A few weeks back just before the global pandemic we broke the news that we would be collaborating on a Ferrari 458 GT3 build that was happening in Miami with our customer and good friend Manny and his imprecable vision of a Gen 2 GT3 street build, he seen all the rest and believes he can build a better example and after seeing his work, we believe this is going to be one very special GT3 street build.
The 458 is one of the prettiest cars ever produced, it really is stunning from every viewing point, but in the GT3 race version look it enhances that beauty further, it really is a special looking GT race car, possibly the prettiest GT3 car of all time, apart from the BMW Z4 of course, but we would say that as we are building one, but we can appreciate the 458 GT3 more than most after building one back in 2015 with our Scandinavian Partners Lights 2 Flag, it’s a car you have to see up close and personal to appreciate what the GT3 styling does to a standard 458 in every detail, and Many is going all out with this build, he is leaving no stone unturned with the interior also coming in for some very special Manny treatment.
Every single Ferrari 458 GT3 build that has been put together in the USA has been done so using used race parts, now there is nothing wrong with that, our own Z4 has an Authentic used race kit, but Manny didnt want used, he wanted new parts which is exactly what he is getting, Front bumper, front splitter, front vented fenders, rear bumper, rear over fenders, rear diffuser, rear wing, door mirrors with glass along with the arch liners with the hood also on order, after deciding at a later date that the front hood was an absolute must have part on the conversion and we would have to agree.
This is one build that we have been looking forward to after getting derailed by the global pandemic which put this build back 4 months, but after receiving the parts the enthusiasm and excitement has just reignited, Manny is about to light up the Ferrari 458 game with the most authentic GT3 street build there has been to date ... disagree, show us another.
