Seen Through Glass is back with a bang! This time, they have traveled to Connecticut to film the world's only manual Ferrari 458 Speciale. This is a passion project of a private owner who loves manual gearboxes and wanted to convert the 458 Speciale to a manual. Seen Through Glass is excited to explore the car and tell the story of how it was created, as well as what it's like to drive.
The car is the real deal and took over three years to develop. The owner is the founder of Modificata, a company famous for manual conversions. Seen Through Glass will be taking the car for a spin and getting the inside scoop from the owner.
