Description

Chassis No. ZFF79ALA8J0230452

Ferrari unveiled the 488 GTB at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2015, bringing turbocharging back to a mid-engine V8 berlinetta for the first time since the F40. Successor to the celebrated 458 Italia, it carried a name rooted in Maranello tradition. The figure 488 marks the displacement per cylinder in cubic centimeters, while GTB recalls the Gran Turismo Berlinetta badge worn by the 308 GTB of 1975.

The car's 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 is rated at 661 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. Ferrari's engineers worked to preserve the crisp throttle response and soaring note of the naturally aspirated cars, managing torque delivery through each gear to keep the power progressive. The effort paid off; the engine was named the overall International Engine of the Year in 2016, and through a seven-speed F1 dual-clutch transmission it carries the 488 GTB to 62 mph in 3.0 seconds and on to a top speed of 205 mph. The Ferrari Styling Centre gave the car deep, divided side intakes that nod to the 308 GTB. At the rear, a blown spoiler adds downforce without the drag of a large fixed wing.

This 488 GTB was first registered in Washington state in November 2017 and has remained with its original owner since. It is finished in Rosso Corsa with a Nero leather interior, a combination its owner sharpened with a run of Giallo details. Yellow brake calipers sit behind 20-inch forged wheels in a dark painted finish. Inside, Giallo stitching and a yellow rev counter set off the black hides.

Carbon fiber was specified generously for dramatic effect. Outside, it forms the front spoiler, side air splitters, rear air ducts, and underdoor covers. In the cabin, it lines the dash inserts and central bridge and shapes the LED-equipped driver zone. The order also included the sport exhaust system, a suspension lifter, the Adaptive Frontlight System, full electric seats, and the premium hi-fi system. The car shows under 1,000 miles at the time of cataloging, backed by a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and it received a fresh battery during a maintenance inspection in Lynnwood, Washington, in September 2026.

Few one-owner examples arrive with so little use. This example's twin-turbo V8 has barely been asked for its best, leaving nearly every mile of that relentless 661-horsepower surge, razor-sharp steering, and sport exhaust soundtrack still to be enjoyed.
