488 arrives in the uae

I was emailed a wonderful surprise the other day. The surprise was to announce the arrival of the 488 GTB at the showroom in Dubai! Me being quite the lover of the 458 am more than interested and quite excited to have this news. It was time to meet yet again this masterpiece and meet I did.
I organized to meet with the nice marketing lady from AlTayer Dubai at the showroom and off I went. On arrival, there in all its glory sat the 488 GTB. Heart beat increased seeing such a masterpiece. I announced myself to the reception and spent 5 minutes admiring all the wonderful art in the showroom, the books of nostalgia in the waiting area and enjoyed a top up of water.
The meeting started, a little conversation on the car, a little more about ChronEVO and some photographs taken of the piece of art in question. Beautiful!
I shall let you see the results of pictures, and the Ferrari Press Release below and allow you to swoon for this wonderful car. The streets will be charged with smiles and amazed faces when this eventually takes to the road with the many owners that will purchase. Maybe soon I can top this up with the experience of driving the 488 GTB...Till Then...
FERRARI 488 GTB ARRIVES IN THE UAE
Exciting berlinetta on display at Al Tayer Motors showroom in Dubai
Dubai, 12 August 2015 - Ferrari’s exciting mid-rear-engined V8 Berlinetta, the 488 GTB, has arrived in the UAE and can be viewed at the Al Tayer Motors showroom in Dubai.
Visitors to the showroom will be able to see the car, which made its international debut at the Geneva International Motor Show earlier in March. The new Ferrari 488 GTB not only delivers unparalleled performance but extreme power, exploitable and controllable to an unprecedented level.
The 488 in the car’s moniker indicates the engine’s unitary displacement, while the GTB stands for Gran Turismo Berlinetta, a reference to Ferrari’s heritage.
Designed by the Ferrari Style Centre, the 488 GTB’s sculptural forms are completely new. They accentuate the car’s sportiness yet retain the classically clean, pure lines typical of Ferrari’s legendary styling. The seamless interweaving of form and function is clear in every detail. Certain design elements are also obvious nods to the past, not least the 308 GTB-inspired styling of the flanks.
An exceptional engine and sophisticated aerodynamics combined with refined vehicle dynamic controls radically improve the already razor-sharp responsiveness of Ferrari’s road cars to near-track level. Power (670 cv), engine and vehicle response times (0.8 s and 0.06 s respectively) give the Ferrari 488 GTB a unique character and guarantee unmatched driving pleasure to drivers of all abilities.
The 488 GTB is priced at AED 955,000 - before customization. Ferrari’s unparalleled quality standards and increasing focus on client service underpin the extended seven-year maintenance program offered with the Ferrari 488 GTB. Available across the entire Ferrari range, the program covers all regular maintenance for the first seven years of the car’s life.
This scheduled maintenance program for Ferrari's is an exclusive service that allows clients the certainty that their car is kept at peak performance and safety over the years. This unique service is also available to owners of pre-owned Ferrari's through Al Tayer Motors Ferrari showroom in Dubai.
