Ferrari has revealed a one-of-a-kind vehicle, called the Ferrari 458 MM Speciale. Designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the car has been created for an unnamed British client.

The 458 MM Speciale is based on the now-discontinued 458 Speciale, but comes with a number of changes including a different aluminum body and bespoke bumpers made from carbonfibre. It gets a more sloped roofline and prominent rake at the rear end. Ferrari has also added side intakes to aid cooling for the naturally aspirated 4.5-litre V8 engine, since the modified rear impacts engine bay cooling. The engine continues to produce 605hp and 540Nm of torque, and is paired to a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox.

The one-off 458 MM Speciale also gets a black A-pillar, similar to the one used in the 1984 GTO. The wheels have been designed exclusively for the car, and both the headlights and tail-lights have been specifically modified as well.

The car comes finished in Bianco Italia paint with the tri-coloured Italian flag.

Photos of the interior have not been released yet. However, it is known that the car comes with satin white accents, an upgraded sound system, a tailor-made trim, and Cioccolato leather upholstery with white stitching.
