Car enthusiasts, dreamers and the wealthy take note - the Ferrari 488 GTB has arrived in Dubai.

The Italian supercar, which made its international debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, is for sale at the Al Tayer Motors showroom.

For an initial Dh955,000 - add on some more if you want customisation - Al Tayer Motors says the car has “unparalleled performance, extreme power,” and is “exploitable and controllable to an unprecedented level”.

The 488 in the car’s moniker indicates the engine’s unitary displacement, while the GTB stands for Gran Turismo Berlinetta, a reference to Ferrari’s heritage.

It comes with a seven-year maintenance package, has a mid-to-rear V8 engine, 670 bhp, reaches 0-100 km/h in 3.0 seconds and has a maximum speed of 330 km/h.
