But how much does it weigh? :ror:

The 458 Spider is powered by the same naturally aspirated 4.5-liter V8 as the 458 Italia, producing 562 hp at a soaring 9,000 rpm and 398 lb-ft of torque at 6,000 rpm. The heady reserves are channeled to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and electronic differential.

Ferrari claims a 0-to-62-mph time of 3.5 seconds, or a tenth of a second slower than the fixed-roof model, and a top speed of 198 mph.

Along with its new aluminum hardtop, measures taken in stiffening the 458 Spider's chassis added 110 pounds over the 458 Italia at 3,153 pounds. In a bid to give the car a unique driving character, Ferrari altered damping characteristics of the suspension.
