We saw it first at Geneva. Now, people of Britain, you will see it at this weekend"s Goodwood Festival of Speed. It is none other than Mansory"s wild take on the Ferrari 488 GTB.Sure, the 661bhp Ferrari 488 GTB isn"t exactly the kind of supercar that screams for more power or aero, but hey, since when has Mansory played by the The Rules?So, what you get is a 790bhp bumblebee, capable of accelerating from 0-62mph in 2.9secs (down 0.1sec from standard) and a top speed of 212mph. How has Mansory achieved such gains? By installing a tweaked ECU for the 3.9-litre turbo V8 in the middle, along with strapping on a specially new exhaust system.The springs are 20mm lower to cope with the additional power, while you"ll no doubt spot the new aero addenda dotted across the 488"s body. There are lightweight wheels, 20 inches at the front and 21 at the back, lots of interior decoration and a whole dollop of yellow.See if you can catch it in action this weekend on Lord March"s driveway
