So this is the new Ferrari 458 Italia and what a car, what a machine is this...oh no no no! i came to know you're about to close your browser? come on first read the whole post dude!
So here it is! possibly the prettiest Ferrari ever made, Ammmmmmm! i think we need some more to make it a bit more ammmmmm! good looking so here are some more 458s....
What a marvelous piece of engineering. But not in distant past we saw the other side of the story and sometimes pictures speak louder than words, scroll down!!!
ooooooooooooooooh dear! but don't get dishearten fellows because THE RED DEVIL IS BACK! OH YEAH!
At last after quiet a time Ferrari has at last worked out the fire problem in their Ferrari 458s and guess what? it isn't what people rumored that its because of electrical short circuit blah blah blah! As it turned out the reason behind all that scene is a bit of glue.
Ferrari says that they have found the problem and it is because of the material in the wheel arch lining and heat shield. According to Ferrari, the glue securing the wheel arch lining and heat shield can melt and deform when under high operating temperatures. When it comes in contact with the exhaust, "the glue can smoke and the wheel arch liner can ignite".
All 1258 458 Italias has been recalled by the Ferrari and Ferrari says that it would take them half day to fix one car where they will replace glue with bolts. Ferrari also says that those who got their cars burnt to ashes will get new 458s without any cost to the client.
I think Ferrari is still a Ferrari, although I had completely lost faith in Ferrari but Ferrari skunk works has done it, Hats off for Ferrari!
well yes it's really a big thing that Ferrari is doing.
ReplyDeletebut why they used glue in-place of screws in the first place lol.
To save weight :D or for keeping center of gravity in the centre lolz!
ReplyDeletemay be glue made it water proof....
to make water proof, they should used silicon glue + screws, and center of gravity doesn't change by screws i guess, neither they would increase weight in kgies lol. :D
ReplyDeletethey must have some stupid scientists who suggested glue to them.....
