Ferrari 458 Italia Challenge – Click above for image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nThe crew at the Axis of Oversteer have managed to snag what could be the first images of the upcoming Ferrari 458 Italia<\/a> Challenge, and while no one’s claiming that this is the real McCoy just yet, it’s certainly packing the right kit.<\/p>\n

The standard coupe’s five-lug wheels have been nixed in favor of a single lug units, with each nine-spoke, lightweight hoop framing massive carbon ceramic stoppers. The Challenge appears slightly lower than stock and includes some revised aero bits in the form of longer, wider side skirts, a revised fascia and a bonnet sporting a set of hood pins. <\/p>\n

Out back and inside, things appear to be slightly rough around the edges, so it’s safe to assume this is just a prototype for the time being. However, the roll cage, plastic windows and deeply bolstered race seat are all sure to make the cut when the Challenge debuts later this year.<\/p>\n

One thing we do know: The launch of the 599 GTO<\/a> is going on this week in Italy, so it’s likely that journalists are getting a sneak peak at the Challenge between making runs in Ferrari’s<\/a> Enzo-beating GT. That being the case, expect all the details to be revealed shortly.<\/p>\n
