Ferrari F8 Rental
The last pure gasoline mid-engined Ferrari V8, built with real buttons instead of touch controls.
Overview
The Ferrari F8 is the last mid-engined Ferrari built with a purely gasoline V8 and real dashboard buttons instead of touch surfaces, its 710 hp engine derived from the track-focused 488 Pista. It suits a renter who wants the badge reaction without a conversation about hybrids or turbos, and a first Ferrari rental with nothing to explain first.
How It Drives
The pull ramps up hard and torque builds by gear, so the surge never feels like it is coming from a turbo, and the steering carries more weight and feedback than earlier Ferraris in this shape. The Ferrari F8 works for a first Ferrari rental built around the badge alone.
Who Rents It
A Ferrari F8 suits a renter who wants the badge reaction without a conversation about hybrids or turbos. It suits someone who already drove a 458 or a 488 and wants the newer, faster car in the shape they already recognize, and it works just as well for a first Ferrari rental built around the badge alone. A driver who wants the purest version of the platform leans toward one of the two body styles Ferrari offers here, while a renter who wants the roof down for photographs or a passenger leans toward the other. Either way, the badge reaction and the 710 hp underneath are identical, so the decision comes down to preference rather than performance.
Trim Breakdown
Ferrari sold the F8 in exactly 2 road versions, a fixed roof coupe and a folding hardtop convertible, and never added a third trim to the F8 nameplate. Prometheus Exotics runs both of them today, the Tributo and the Spider.
F8 Tributo
The Ferrari F8 Tributo is the fixed roof coupe and the stiffer of the 2 we run. A 3.9 liter twin turbo V8 makes 710 hp at 8,000 rpm and drives the rear wheels through a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. It carries the lighter body of the pair, roughly 70 kg under the weight of the Spider, behind a slatted Lexan rear screen that leaves the engine on full display.
F8 Spider
The Ferrari F8 Spider is the convertible, with a 2 piece folding hardtop that lowers in 14 seconds at speeds up to 28 mph. It keeps the same 710 hp V8, the same brakes and the same chassis tune as the Tributo, so the roof is the only real difference here. A powered rear window drops on its own with the roof closed, and we run this one as well.
