The Ferrari 488 Pista is undeniably one of the most desirable performance cars of the past few years, and over in the UK resides an example unlike any other.
This particular 488 Pista is finished in an intriguing shade of ‘Verde Francesca’ and was recently photographed by YouTuber TheTFJJ. In a world where the vast majority of Ferrari models are painted in the typical shades of red, yellow, or black, it is refreshing to see a model as desirable as the 488 Pista finished in a unique paint job that really makes it stand out.

The YouTuber says the color of this car was inspired by the Verde Tevere paint of a one-off Ferrari 250 SWB (pictured below). Contrasting the green paint are a host of carbon fiber parts, including the diffuser, side skirts, side air intakes, front splitter, and most notably, the optional carbon fiber wheels that the 488 Pista is available with.
Powering the car is a 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 rated at 711 hp and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque, allowing the hardcore supercar to hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.85 seconds, 124 mpg (200 km/h) in 7.6 seconds, and a top speed exceeding 211 mph (340 km/h).
It is unclear how much the owner of this 488 paid for the custom paint job, but it would not have been cheap. However, we think there’s a very good chance the unique paint finish will pay dividends if the original owner ever decides to sell it, as the bespoke paint could certainly increase its value.
