About renting the Ferrari F8 Tributo Spyder Yellow in Dubai

The Ferrari F8 Tributo Spider is a 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 mid-engined open-top supercar — 710bhp, rear-wheel drive, two seats, retractable folding hardtop — priced from AED 2,970 per day. It covers 0-100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, tops out at 340 km/h, and represents Ferrari's final flowering of the 488 platform before the 296 GTS took over as the current mid-engined open-top Ferrari. Available for rent in Dubai with delivery to your address, hotel, or DXB airport within Dubai limits. Deposit is AED 4,500. The first 250 km per day are included; the current daily rate is shown at the top of this page.

The F8 Tributo Spider is Ferrari's tribute (hence the name — Tributo) to the last-generation naturally-aspirated V8 mid-engined Ferraris before turbocharging became the mainstream approach. The 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 is a lightly revised version of the 488 Pista's engine, producing 710bhp — 40 more than the 488 Spider it replaced. The chassis and aero were sharpened at the same time: revised front bumper for more downforce, S-Duct integrated into the nose for cleaner airflow, and the same active rear diffuser that made the 488 Pista so effective at high speed.

Inside the cabin is unmistakably Ferrari — yellow rev counter centre-stage in the driver's instrument binnacle, the manettino for drive modes on the steering wheel (Wet, Sport, Race, CT-Off, ESC-Off), paddle-shifters mounted on the column not the wheel. Colour on this car is Giallo Modena — Ferrari's signature yellow, which is arguably the definitive Ferrari colour and one of the most recognisable at any Dubai valet. Storage is limited (small front trunk and a small shelf behind the seats).

The F8 Tributo Spider rents to customers who specifically want the last-generation turbocharged V8 open-top Ferrari — before the current 296 GTS moved Ferrari to V6 hybrid. Typical brief is a couple's weekend, a photography session where the yellow drop-top is the point, or an enthusiast who wants a mid-engined turbo V8 Ferrari experience while these cars are still current-fleet. Standard Dubai destinations all work at their best roof-down at dusk — Sheikh Zayed Road, Marina to Palm, up to the Address Sky View. Minimum age is 27 (supercar tier). Book a week ahead in high season for weekend windows. Delivery is AED 110 anywhere within Dubai. WhatsApp us on +971 58 808 6137 for weekly and monthly rates that fit your dates.

Against the Ferrari 488 Spyder in our fleet, the F8 is the direct successor — 40bhp more, sharper aero, more modern cabin electronics; the 488 is the earlier car and is finished in white rather than yellow. Against the Ferrari 296 GTS, the F8 is the analogue turbocharged predecessor (no hybrid); the 296 is the current V6-plus-electric hybrid at a slightly higher daily rate. Against the McLaren 720S Spider, the F8 is more Ferrari (louder, more theatrical, the yellow colour); the McLaren is more precise and more overtly high-tech.
