The 2012 Ferrari 458: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2012 Ferrari 458 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is the 2012 Ferrari 458 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the 458
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Engine and fuel
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
What to expect from the 458
As a car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.
Who rents the 458
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Try before you buy
A test week in the 458 tells you more than any review. Rent the 458 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Picking a year and a trim
Within the 2012 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Questions first?
A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2012 Ferrari 458 from us first.
