Ferrari was willing to make us wait until next month's Geneva Motor Show for the introduction of the 488 Pista. However, given all the leaks that hit the web, Maranello decided to introduce the track special over the web last week.
So, did the world wide web leave the 488 Pista alone? Of course it didn't. In fact, we ended up with multiple renderings, with the most interesting one showcasing the 488 Pista in Aperta form.

Well, we are now back on the topic, with the supercar having been spotted out in the wild.

As you'll be able to notice in the images above (lens tip to Autogespot for the pics), a 488 Pista still wearing camouflage was caught on the road, with the sighting having taken place in Maranello, Ferrari's hometown.

And while the visual part of the sighting can hardly be called surprising, the spotter who came across the velocity tool had something interesting to say when asked about the aural side of the affair.

"Sound is amazing! Much better than the "stock" 488!" the aficionado mentioned on the said website.

Now, since the Pista treatment brings a 50 hp bump, which is the largest of its kind for the Italian automotive producer, we're glad to receive clues on the decibel side of the transformation being just as spicy.

Until we'll get to bring you the live photos of the Fezza, we'll remind you of another render that showed up last week.

A pixel play that caught our eye in particular involved the 488 Pista receiving the FXX treatment. Despite the cool circuit treatment introduced by the rendering, we wouldn't hold our breath for such a customer car being brought to life, though.

Oh, and let's not forget that the aftermarket side of the industry hasn't missed the occasion to virtually gift the 488 Pista with custom shoes.
