The 2015 Ferrari 488 is the marque’s first turbo-assisted mid-engined car since the seminal F40. It marks a change of direction in terms of its bodywork specifically; creating a staggering fifty percent increase in speed-generated downforce. Ferrari also claims quicker gear changes and a more sophisticated adaptive suspension. The engine is a very different beast too, being a smaller-than-usual 3.9 litre twin-turbocharged flat plane crank V8, which manages to be both more efficient and more effective with its 661 brake horsepower. It follows the lineage of the Ferrari F154 engine family.

The car’s moniker is actually based on its engine performance, producing 488cc per cylinder. The 488 GTB is driven by a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission made for Ferrari by Getrag. It was named ‘The Supercar of the Year 2015’ by renowned car magazine, Top Gear.

This fine 1:18 scale model of the 488 GTB has been handcrafted and finished in Amalgam workshops with the co-operation and assistance of Ferrari regarding original finishes, materials, archive imagery and drawings. The use of supremely accurate digital scanning of the original car has allowed for perfect recreation of every detail at scale. Furthermore, it has undergone detailed scrutiny by both engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation.

Every Amalgam 1:18 scale model is supplied in a luxury black box with a protective outer carrying sleeve. Each model is mounted on a polished black acrylic base protected by a clear acrylic dust cover. The base holds a booklet containing the certificate of authenticity along with information and collateral material about the car. The model title and original branding is displayed on a polished stainless steel plaque mounted at the front end of the base.

Understanding Scale

The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
