Ferrari just named their latest supercar after our coastline. The Ferrari Amalfi Spider.
After launching the Amalfi coupe last July, Maranello released the convertible version. This is an open-air supercar built specifically for top-down driving, not just a car with the roof cut off.
The fabric roof drops in 13.5 seconds. You can operate it at speeds up to 60 km/h (37 mph), so there's no need to pull over. The five-layer fabric keeps the cabin surprisingly quiet when closed. With the top down, you get 172 liters of trunk space. Close it up and you have 255 liters.
Under the hood sits a 640-horsepower V8 biturbo engine. Zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.3 seconds. Zero to 200 km/h in 9 seconds flat. Top speed over 320 km/h (199 mph). No hybrid system here.

The active rear wing generates 110 kg of downforce at 250 km/h. The brake-by-wire system improves pedal feel and modulation. A wind deflector sits behind the rear seats to cut down on buffeting when you're cruising with the top down.
Inside, you get Ferrari's dual-cockpit layout with a lower center tunnel, physical buttons on the steering wheel (including the start button), and a larger central display.
Deliveries start in the first half of 2027. Starting price: €270,000.
For anyone wondering about the name: Ferrari chose "Amalfi" for both the coupe and spider versions. This is their new V8 grand tourer line. Whether you're driving the winding coastal roads here or halfway around the world, the nameplate carries a piece of southern Italy with it.
