Ferrari 488 GTB vs Ferrari 458 Speciale

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ferrari 488 GTB is the quicker car, covering it in 10.24 s at 138.0 mph against the Ferrari 458 Speciale’s 10.60 s — a margin of 0.35 s. To 60 mph the Ferrari 488 GTB takes 2.58 s and the Ferrari 458 Speciale 2.74 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the Ferrari 488 GTB or the Ferrari 458 Speciale faster?
The Ferrari 488 GTB. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 10.24 s to the Ferrari 458 Speciale's 10.60 s, a margin of 0.35 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.58 s against 2.74 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ferrari 488 GTB 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 488 GTB reaches 60 mph in 2.58 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.24 s at 138.0 mph.
What is the Ferrari 458 Speciale 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 458 Speciale reaches 60 mph in 2.74 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.60 s at 132.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ferrari 488 GTB trips the lights at 138.0 mph and the Ferrari 458 Speciale at 132.0 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 10 of 11 for the Ferrari 488 GTB and 8 of 11 for the Ferrari 458 Speciale. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
