2015 Geneva Motor Show: Ferrari 488 GTB Showcased

By Rajkamal

No international auto show is complete if there is no Ferrari on the scene. The 2015 Geneva Motor Show can't be excused either.

The Italian luxury carmaker Ferrari has been drawing fans with its latest addition, the Ferrari 488 GTB. The sports car is currently on display.

So what makes this car so special? Many would think that it is just a Ferrari 458 that has been facelifted or with fancier lines.
