This is Ferrari’s latest addition to their V-8 line-up that is designed to evoke the old 250 California. The car is made of lightweight aluminum with a retractable hardtop, and is a 2+ cabin (it’s a two-seater with a hint of a back seat bench. Packing a direct-injection 4.3 liter V-8 that pumps out 460hp and 358 ft-lbs. of torque, the vehicle transmits power through a electronically-controlled, dual clutch six-speed gearbox, that pushes it from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. It has several settings: sport, comfort, and CST-off. The electronics include an iPod dock, USB ports, and Bluetooth. The gearing is actuated with paddle shifters on the steering column, a suspension evolved from F1 racing cars, and carbon fiber Brembo brakes.
