Unveiled in September 2019, the Ferrari F8 Spider without the roof of the F8 Tribute coupé, the berlinetta tribute to all cars equipped with an eight-cylinder engine produced by the Maranello company.
The F8 Spider is an open-top variant of the F8 Tributo with a folding hardtop as seen on its predecessors. The top takes 14 seconds for operation and can be operated with speeds up to 45 km/h (28 mph). The F8 Spider features large air intakes on its rear haunches, moved rearward compared to the ones in the 488 Spider for improved airflow to the engine
On an aesthetic level, the differences between the Ferrari F8 Spider and the F8 Tributo with coupé body are concentrated in the rear, which does not traditionally house a cover on the engine in Lexan with three transverse slots, a reference to the large F40.
The rear has in fact been completely redesigned, with a metal cover that does not let you glimpse the beautiful 3.9 V8, but is equipped with two beautiful air intakes in glossy black to let the engine cool. In addition, there is no soft cut of the roof, but there are two humps behind the seats that act not only as a design element but also as a roll-bar and, of course, we find the housing for the retractable metal roof. |

This roof is similar to the license plate solutions seen on other Ferraris, with a rigid metal cover that hides in 14 seconds under the roof humps, which can be operated in motion up to a speed of 45 km / h. For the rest, however, remains the usual, now known Ferrari F8 Tributo. The front is therefore equipped with the classic L-shaped LED lights, but already from the front we notice a detail, the first Tributo.
The front is therefore equipped with the classic L-shaped LED lights, but already from the front we notice a detail, the first Tributo. Immediately catching the eye is the huge S-Duct air intake, inspired by racing, which channels flows from the front bumper to maximize grip at the front, taken from the latest Ferrari 488 Pista. The double split central exhaust incorporated into the rear bumper is then a reference to the 430 Scuderia.
Compared to the other Ferrari berlinettas, we also find an important rear spoiler in the tail, which also incorporates the four Full LED round headlights, a reference to the legendary 308, 328, 288 GTO and F40, all equipped with four split headlights. Concluding with the dimensions of the Ferrari F8 Spider, the trunk is quite capacious for the category, with 200 liters of maximum capacity in the front compartment.
