A Ferrari fooling around in the snow is always an awesome sight, but these shots, provided by our spy photographer, show something a bit more than just a 458 Italia sliding about.

Looking at the front wheel-arches, which are cut open, it’s clear that we’re actually looking at a test-mule for the next big thing to come from the Italian automaker.

With the 458 already getting close to five years old, perhaps Ferrari is looking to give the sexy supercar a slight redesign. Or maybe there’s already a successor to the 458 on the way?

With the Lamborghini Huracan acting as the current Italian supercar du jour, it’s possible that Ferrari is looking to steal some spotlight back from its rivals.
