Ο Ben Barry εκφράζει προσωπική άποψη όταν λέει πως θα προτιμούσε την Italia. Στο κείμενό του αναγνωρίζει την σαφή υπεροχή της Speciale:
There’s no doubt that the 458 Speciale is a dynamic leap forward over the Italia – there’s extra performance, better braking, less roll, and even more lurid possibilities with the rear-drive chassis. On track or for a committed drive over a favourite road, it’s unquestionably better.
But the compromises mean that Italia owners shouldn’t necessarily feel desperate to trade up, especially if you’re looking for a car to use on a regular basis and not just for the ten-tenths stuff. The Italia, after all, is already a fabulously accomplished car that leaves you yearning for very little more. The Speciale is, well, extremely special, but I’m going to be a wuss here and say that, if it were my money, I’d buy an Italia.
