    Main difference is that there are no F430 fanatics looking to pick up the few occurrences of a beaten up 458 selling for less than a pristine F430 :D
    I may have a look whenever I got some more time to waste ;)

    488 is far the better car than a 458 looks wise 458 is not aging well the front end mostly.its makes alot less power.488 is the better choice only 458 i would choose over a 488 would be the speciale still less power but looks great if your in the market for a 458 drive the 488 and chances are you will forget the 458

    For the sake of everlasting world peace, all threads comparing 488s to 458s should be banned on Fchat.

    In 10 years comparing a 458 to a 488 will be like comparing a 993 to a 996. Nobody wants a 996. 993 is a classic and better cars have been made since the 996.

    Can’t agree here.
    993 pretty. 996 ugly. Worst 911 ever.
    458 pretty. 488 beastly beautiful.
    Also in 10 years or even now most 4 door electric family cars will walk away from a 458 at the stoplight.

    To compare a 488 to a 996 is ridiculous. The 488 is a beautiful car the 996 was a disaster the Porsche engineers admitted the 996 doors were a disaster have you ever looked at one waves in the doors for a Porsche unreal. The 996 has others issues, engine issues for one a boxster interior for the most part. Your are correct the 993 is a classic but there is no way to make a linkage between the 458 to the 488 in the realm of 993-996! The 488 is a great car on its own!

    I hate the looks of the 996 turbo, lights suck and slap sided. Where are the hips?

    I'm just waiting for the 458/ Pista or F8 resale parity to consider upgrading from 488 to Pista or F8...
