    Re: 458 - a lot of speculation on PH, including a comment from one owner that his car is going back to have a fuel-related breather pipe (fuel-pump, I think) modified.


    That said, it's usually either electrics or fuel-system, so I doubt that's adding much to the debate.

    Blue '08 FD2 CTR - big, ITR-sized shoes to fill...
    Yellow '96 NSX 3.0 - oh was it worth the wait!
    Black '99 ITR - well, I had to have another one, the first was so much fun. Miss this one even more than #1...
    Blue '03 S2000 - SOLD, flawed but fun
    Blue '04 Focus TDCi Sport - SOLD, very good fun for a diesel!
    Black '00 ITR - SOLD, still missed
    Red '98 Civic VTi - SOLD, probably still bombproof

    Other than the key fact that despite their denial of a problem, Ferrari are doing things to delivered cars!
    2001 3.2 Circuit Blue Coupe with pop-ups!

    Gordon Murray knows.
    Rowan Atkinson knows.
    It's the Honda NSX."

    Ferrari still have a way to go to catch up with the number of Gallardo's that have gone up in smoke.

    But the 458 has lost a lot more as a %age of cars made. Typical Ferrari reliability!
