The story

The F8 Tributo replaced the 488 GTB, pairing the 488 Pista's 710-hp V8 with greater comfort. Its name honored the engine; the hybrid V6 296GTB followed as Ferrari's entry-level mid-engine coupe.1234

  1. 2019

    Geneva debut as the 488 GTB successor

    The F8 Tributo brought SSC 6.1 and FDE+; the latter now worked in the manettino's Race setting.123

  2. 2019

    1330 kg dry, plus Pista-derived aero

    The coupe's 1330 kg dry figure required lightweight options. A Pista-derived S-Duct and adjustable diffuser flaps shaped the airflow.15

  3. 2019

    Spider adds a 14-second folding hardtop

    The Spider shared the coupe's drivetrain and weighed 1400 kg dry; the Tributo's 1435 kg minimum figure was curb weight.23

  4. 2021

    1:29.06 at the Lausitzring

    AUTO BILD lapped the F8 Tributo faster than the 911 Turbo S, but slower than the Lamborghini Huracán Evo.6

  5. 2022

    March: order books close

    Ferrari stopped accepting orders for both the F8 Tributo and F8 Spider in March 2022.7

  6. 2022

    SP48 Unica trades glass for bodywork

    The F8 Tributo-based one-off deleted the rear windshield and replaced the round taillights with thin rectangular units.8

  7. 2023

    Coupe ends; one 2023 Americas import

    Ferrari North America imported just one 2023-model F8 Tributo. Coupe production ended first, with the Spider's run also finishing in 2023.49

  8. 2023

    SP-8 discards the roof entirely

    The roofless F8 Spider-based roadster wore a longer splitter, glossy Blue Sandstone carbon fiber up front and matte Argento Micalizzato gray at the rear.10

  9. 2026

    HC25 hides cooling in a black band

    The F8 Spider-based HC25 had a 710-hp V8 and a black body band concealing cooling intakes and ducts that extracted heat from the engine bay.9

How to spot one

Look for

  • The Tributo's louvered Lexan engine cover echoes the F40.13
  • Four round taillights sit within a wraparound rear spoiler.13
  • Compact horizontal LED headlights have brake-cooling ducts directly above them.13
  • An S-duct runs through the hood.13
  • Elaborately sculpted side sills stand out just ahead of the rear wheels.16

Year by year

  1. 2022

    Tributo and Spider carried over unchanged, with no new exterior details to distinguish this model year.11

Don’t confuse it with

  • 488 GTB

    The 488 GTB has two taillights and a lower side-intake divider; the F8 has four lights and sharper sills.16

  • 458 Italia

    The 458 Italia has cleaner sides and three exhaust pipes; the F8 has two exhaust outlets.1617
