Speculations of a high performance variant of the 488
editThe high performance variant of the 488 leaked on the internet does not signifies that the variant would be named "Pista" as such. Technical details and other information about the model remain unknown so it should only be mentioned in the article when the aforementioned details become available.

Claim of lower weight of the Pista Spider than the Pista is not correct
editIn the Pista Spider section it says: "The Spider retains the same engine generating the same power output as the coupé and hence resulting in the same performance as the coupé counterpart according to the manufacturer but now boasts a reduced weight of 1,380 kg (3,042 lb), making it the first production Ferrari road going convertible car to be lighter than its coupé counterpart."
This claim,as one might suspect because it's essentially impossible, is not correct:
https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/ferrari/488-pista-spider
One can find more sources, of course. I assume the 1,380 kg is the dry weight, btw. Also, and in line with the higher weight of the Pista Spider, its performance is not the same as the coupé's (8 s vs 7.6 s @ 0-124 mph, 2.85 s vs. 2.75 s):
https://www.encycarpedia.com/ferrari/18-488-pista-coupe
https://www.encycarpedia.com/ferrari/18-488-pista-spider-convertible
(Plus, the author of this sentence shouldn't have written "... hence resulting in the same performance as the coupé counterpart": If it would be lighter, it would have a higher performance / lower 0-100 km/h time etc.)
I would like to change that sentence accordingly and/or add the above information in another sentence referring to the links I cited. Please advise. --Felix Tritschler (talk) 14:43, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
