DMC Ferrari 458 Italia Estremo Edizione revealed with 592 HP

Production will be limited to 15 units

DMC has officially unveiled the Ferrari 458 Italia Estremo Edizione.

Described as a car "without any boundaries," the Estremo Edizione has a new front bumper, a ventilated hood and aerodynamic side skirts. The model has also been equipped with a carbon fiber rear fascia, a lowered suspension, a rear wing and 20- / 21-inch alloy wheels.

Interior pictures were not released but DMC says customers can order a bespoke cabin with premium leather upholstery and carbon fiber trim.

For added performance, the 4.5-liter V8 engine has been equipped with a new air filter, a sports exhaust system and an optimized ECU. Thanks to these modifications, the engine develops an additional 22 HP (16 kW) which brings the total up to 592 HP (435 kW). This enables the carl to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.1 seconds and hit a top speed of 332 km/h (206 mph).

Production will be limited to 15 units and every third model will be a "Gold Edition" that features a mysterious extra body part.

R.I.P Kurt Caselli (1983 – 2013)

A tribute video to the legendary Kurt Caselli who lost his life yesterday at the Baja 1000 by MIKEDGAF1503.

There are some conflicting reports about the accident, but whatever the true circumstances turn out to be it is a very sad day indeed. Thoughts and condolences to his fiancée and all of his friends and family.

I was lucky enough to meet him on a few occasions in California and in Salzburg and was touched each time by his warm personality, huge smile, positivity and kind words. He seemed to have this effect on everybody he met and I am sure he will be missed and remembered with fondness by all.

I asked some kids at a Glen Helen WORCS race a few years ago who their favourite rider was and they all said without fail, Kurt Caselli. He won on that day too as he did so often. RIP.
