2017 Ferrari California T

Introduced as an entry-level Ferrari in 2008, Built as a modern successor to the Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder of the 50s and the Ferrari 365 California of the 60s, the Ferrari California represented a fourth model range for the automaker: the front-engine, eight cylinder grand touring sports car. The first front-mounted V8, first Ferrari with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, and one the first ferrari's to feature a multi-link rear suspension and engine with direct fuel injection. The “T” is representative of the twin-turbocharged engine delivering upwards of 553 hp and 557 lb-ft of torque, but the powertrain is simply one upgrade to the California. Its variable boost management system was engineered precisely to reduce turbocharger lag and deliver improved performance. Its excellent handling is due in large part to its weight distribution: the front-mounted engine allowed for a 47% front / 53% rear distribution of weight. The original California features a top speed of 193 mph and 0-62 mph in 3.6 secs. The Handling Speciale package is just a mild toning. For $8120, chump change in Ferrari-land, it turns up the suspension stiffness a click or two, hastens the shifts slightly, adds a few styling tweaks, and opens up the exhaust to deliver more sound.This example has a 5,297miles and just arrived at our showroom.
