Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 458 Spider?

[LarryT (l02turner]

Here's another site with the same photos - I noticed the artist renderings 
are provided by Ferrari SPA - II wonder why they didnt release photos of the 
car being tested - with camo?  Perhaps they may be changing parts of it?

http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/4217/Ferrari-458-Italia.html

There's also a link to a sound file of the engine but it only took me to 
some advertisers.  The engine is listed as having 570CV.  with torque is 
540NM (Newton Meters)  But CV is new to me.    Time for Wiki  - without 
succes - didn't see any mention of CV.  Anyone know what it stands for?  The 
article also says the engine produces 127 CV/liter which they say is very 
good.  But that doesn't help me understand what CV is based on.  Oh well...

Later ya'll - hope the article is informative.   The above website has a 
large number of hi-res photos of all kinds of cars.  Enjoy -
