Exterior
This is a gorgeous car. With Pininfarina bodywork created under the direction of Donato Coco, Ferrari’s new design chief, the California is a real stunner, particularly with the roof up. Roof down it loses a trifle of that extraordinary well-balanced beauty, but only a trifle. Unlike other cars with a retractable hardtop, the proportions remain intact when the passengers expose themselves to the sun.

Interior
In addition to sporting the marque’s classic styling cues, the cabin has also been beautifully trimmed using quality materials by Ferrari’s own skilled artisans. New accessories and equipment, such as the seats, steering wheel, instrument panel and infotainment system, together with optimised aerodynamics ensure that this is a highly ergonomic and enjoyable car to drive regardless of whether the top is up or down.

Engine
The Ferrari California is the first Ferrari model to feature a mid-front positioned engine: The 4.3-Liter V8 Engine with direct fuel injection and a “flat” crankshaft pumps out 460 horses at 7500 rpm and will apparently launche it from 0-60mph (100km/h) in under 4 seconds!! It is also the first Ferrari to benefit from a new 7-speed dual clutch transmission which helps enhance the performance figures.
