Dramatically presented in stunning 'stealth-spec', this 23,000-miles, Nero Daytona example has aged brilliantly and retains its Ferrari warranty until 2023.The Ferrari 458 Italia was first officially unveiled at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, and was the replacement for the F430, in the mid-engine, V8-powered model range. In keeping with Ferrari tradition, the body was designed by Pininfarina under the leadership of Donato Coco, the Ferrari design director. The car's exterior styling and features were designed for aerodynamic efficiency, producing a downforce of 140kg (309lb) at 200km/h (120mph). In particular, the front grille features deformable winglets that lower at high speeds, in order to offer reduced drag. The 458 is powered by a 4.5-litre V8 engine from the ‘Ferrari/Maserati’ F136-engine family, producing 562bhp and 398lb.ft torque at 6,000rpm with 80% torque available at 3,250rpm. The engine also featured direct fuel injection, which is a first for Ferrari mid-engine set-ups in its road cars. The car's suspension features double wishbones at the front and a multi-link setup at the rear, coupled with E-Diff and F1-Trac traction control systems, designed to improve the car's cornering and longitudinal acceleration by 32% when compared with its predecessors. The brakes include a pre-fill function whereby the pistons in the calipers move the pads into contact with the discs on lift-off to minimize delay in the brakes being applied. Ferrari's official 0–62mph acceleration is 2.9 seconds, the top speed is 210mph and Ferrari quote a power to weight ratio of 5.75lb per horsepower.Offered here is a beautiful 2011 Ferrari 458 that’s covered just 22,500 miles from new. It's finished in Nero Daytona with a Nero leather/alcantara interior and sits on a set of 20" forged dark painted rims complete with yellow brake calipers just peeking through. It was extensively optioned from new with Scuderia wing shields, electrochromic interior mirrors, radio-nav system and Bluetooth, front and rear parking sensors and a yellow rev counter. The interior is equally impressive with Grigio Chiaro special stitching, electric seats, alcantara armrests, carbon fibre central bridge, carbon fibre steering wheel and a high power Hi-Fi system.This stunning 458 is a testament to Pininfarina’s design, ageing well since production began back in 2009. It's very well optioned, in a modern ‘stealthy’ colour combination, with a great service history, complete with all its manuals and service book and the remainder of the Ferrari warranty until February 2023. This represents a fantastic opportunity to own a low mileage 458 Italia at a guide that looks irresistible. .SpecificationMake: FERRARIModel: 458 ITALIAYear: 2011Chassis Number: ZFF67NHC000179638Registration Number: BX11 JWNTransmission: DCTEngine Number: 171071Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 22500 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Black Leather

He also painted with Claude Monet, and Henri Matisse credited Russell for introducing him to Impressionism. He married Anna Maria Antonietta Mattiocco, one of Rodin's favourite models, in 1888. Cf. W Tunnicliffe, John Russell: Australia's French Impressionist, pp.38-39 where Russell's interest for Japanese art and his print collecting are discussed.
