"5 litters"?  Are you saying that the 512BB, 512BBi, 512LM, 512TR and 512TR series 2 was a pack of dogs?  😉😜😝

Always have. They bounce around on car names all the time, starting I think when they switched from the "cc per cylinder" convention to "liters and number of cylinders" for the 512BB. 

The quirkiness is part of the charm!

For the new turbo GTB, Ferrari went back to it's displacement per cylinder designation. Like the 250, 275, 330, etc...
 
488cc x 8 = 3,904 cc.   (The engine is actual 3,902 cc)
 
Since the new car is replacing the 458 Italia (4.5 liter), I sure they wanted to use a larger number designation for marketing,  rather than a smaller one (398 GTB)

I must be missing something. I thought it was 4.8L, 8 cyl.
Same with 458. I thought it was 4.5L, 8 cyl. I never really checked. I took it for granted that's what it was. Like the 308, 328, 348, etc.
So, why 458 and 488 ?
