More infos
- Very good (apple) infoteiment system (... € 3K )
- V8 ferrari and "just" 7,500 rpm seems a bit strange
- V8 has 560ps @ 7,500rpm in every gear, but not the same torque
I II and III 615nm @ 5,750
VI flat 650Nm from 2,500 to 5,500
VII 755 Nm and (and 560ps @ 6,000rpm only)
- handling: more than 3s better than California GT, but a little bit soft setup
- high weight, but it seems 200 Kgs lighter...
- very good brakes, results and fading too. they'd be just a little bit more aggressive

"Fanatics in red jackets may look down on it, and the option pricing gets silly (21 of its 28 available colors cost $12,486 extra), but the California T is more enthralling than its direct competitors, namely the Aston Martin DB9and Bentley Continental GTC, and more passionate than the anodynePorsche 911 Turbo S. It is your daily dose of Ferrari." C/D

The acceleration is unreal. The N154 engine is a gem. Can't wait to see it in the future Maserati cars with 560 hp +
 
Novitec Rosso tunes the Ferrari California T

Novitec Rosso has introduced their new N-Largo.

Based on the Ferrari California T, the N-Largo features a carbon fiber widebody kit that includes a new front bumper, aerodynamic side skirts and extended fenders. The model also has a prominent rear wing and a new rear bumper with an integrated diffuser.

The car also has a stainless-steel sports exhaust system, sports springs (that reduce the ride height by approximately 35mm) and 21- / 22-inch forged alloy wheels with Pirelli P Zero high-performance tires. To help compensate for the reduced ride height, there's a hydraulic front lift system which can raise the front of the car by 40mm, at the push of a button, for going over speed bumps or entering a parking garage.

Under the hood, the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine has been tuned to produce 668 PS (491 kW) and 871 Nm (642 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 108 PS (79 kW) and 96 Nm (70 lb-ft). Thanks to the extra oomph, the car can accelerate 0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds before hitting a top speed of 325 km/h (201.9 mph).

Goodness. Saw one of these today up close. I have never really cared much for this Ferrari, but that has changed.

Ferrari California T Vettel Edition

Believed to be a one-off model
A unique Ferrari California T believed to be called "Vettel Edition" has been recently photographed in Bologna, Italy.

The one-off turbocharged California represents the work of Ferrari's Tailor Made division and combines a red body with a black look for the roof, side mirror caps and the side skirts which also have a white trim. The company's logo on the front fender is just a sticker in the same vein as F1 cars while the black wheels are combined with red brake calipers.

Stepping inside the cabin, it adopts a similar black & red theme along with the colors of the Italian flag on the flat-bottomed steering wheel as well as on the "R", "Auto" and "Launch" buttons on the center column. We are not entirely sure, but on the passenger side it appears to have the optional fire extinguisher kit enclosed in a box wrapped around in black leather with red stitching.

We will know more very soon as the Ferrari California T Vettel Edition is expected to make its official debut this weekend at the 2015 Belgium Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps.

Ferrari

Ferrari S.p.A. is an Italian luxury sports car manufacturer based in Maranello, Italy. Founded in 1939 by Enzo Ferrari (1898-1988), the company built its first car in 1940, adopted its current name in 1945, and began to produce its current line of road cars in 1947. Ferrari became a public company in 1960, and from 1963 to 2014 it was a subsidiary of Fiat S.p.A. It was spun off from Fiat's successor entity, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, in 2016.
