You might not know this, but life is hard for Ferrari->ke252 owners. Not only is there the constant fear that a fire is going to break out behind your head at any given time, but since any millionaire may as well be able to buy one, there's always the fear that you could show up to the next yacht party and have to park your 458 Italia->ke3479 next to someone else's 458 Italia that looks exactly the same. Can you imagine how awful that would be? It could possibly be even more embarrassing than being seen wearing the same Hermes tie as another guy in the boardroom.

Luckily, for people with just that particular set of problems, there are companies out there that dare to do what few would ever dream of attempting and offer products to personalize or "refine" your supercar->ke177 more extensively than you could from the factory. DMC Luxury is one such company, and their latest is the 2014 Ferrari 458 Italia "MCC Edition." If you have a Ferrari in need of a more visually unique look but don't want to go all out, this may be the package for you.

Ferrari 458 Italia "MCC Edition" By DMC Luxury in detail

The Monte Carlo Carbon Edition is an appearance package that adds a new front bumper, a carbon-fiber front lip, and two "sidely located diffusers" to the Ferrari 458 Italia->ke3479, which DMC claims contributes to better road feel, not just a unique look. They also use the factory mounting brackets, which should make installation fairly simple and straightforward. With no major modifications needed to install the package, the car isn't stuck with its new face, and the original parts could be put back in the future if need be.

Unlike DMC's previous Monte Carlo Edition, the MCC Edition makes extensive use of carbon fiber, which they claim is held to even higher standards than what is used by Ferrari itself. The look, while not as extreme as it could be, is still quite aggressive. Whether that's a good thing or not is a matter of personal preference, but it's certainly going to draw more attention than a factory Ferrari 458 Italia.

Ferrari 458 Italia

Introduced as a 2010 model, the Ferrari 458 Italia was the gorgeous followup to Ferrari's venerable F430. Packing a 4.5-liter V-8 that cranks out 570 horsepower and has a 9,000 rpm redline, it's a beast of a car that will hit 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. If you give it enough tarmac, it will break 200 mph. Fanatical devotion to aerodynamics led to a front end that only its mother could find attractive, but in profile, the 458 Italia is absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous. While it may not be quite as surgically precise as the Maclaren, driving one is still its own reward.

Despite stiff competition from the likes of McLaren, Audi->ke1440, Lamborghini->ke44, Porsche, and Aston Martin->ke13, the 458 Italia remains the supercar to beat. Pricing starts at around $275,000 and with options, that quickly climbs, but like with most luxury goods, if you can afford it, you aren't concerned about price.
