    New California pics

    This car was shown at a private launch party in Antwerp and is fitted with a new design of wheel which look a lot better than the 5 arm design previously seen IMHO. Pics courtesy of Ruud from Fchat.






    Re: New California pics

    well theese are certainly uplifting. those new wheels look spectacular, and from those angles the car does look pretty good.

    Re: New California pics

    The roof mechanism looks pretty impressive in the second video at the bottom of the page. It's certainly very quick!

    The side view proportions look pretty good to my eyes from this shot. I'm looking forward to seeing it in Maranello in a couple of weeks


    Re: New California pics

    im starting to think i might really like this car, but then again we have gone back and fourth on that before. so im going to wait untill i see it in the flesh to make my final decision. at least im kindda looking forward to that lately since ive seen some new pics and got some info from the dealership here.

    Re: New California pics

    New wheels are 20". Cali looks much, much better with them, at least IMHO. Full option list should be ready next week...

    I'll be in Maranello in September too. Did you get an invite from your dealer?

    Re: New California pics

    Yes, Joe. Flying out the 18th and return on the 19th. Should be good with the factory tour

    Re: New California pics

    Ferrari should have named it the " Southern California " , " SC " for short ,in homage to the Lexus SC which it looks more like a design successor to .


    Re: New California pics

    apparently it will look very good in black, but this is just a scale model.



    Re: New California pics

    Thanks for pics, yes the rims are gorgeous

    Re: New California pics

    Looks surprisingly like the new Maser GT in those black model pics.

    Re: New California pics

    Will also be there on the 18th .... Guess their will be a rennteam reunion.

    Re: New California pics

    Wow looks great in black - because you cant see it!

    Re: New California pics

    I will be there on 18 too
    How do we meet guys? Should we use a secret hand shake and a password? LOL

    Anyone has an opinion on the rear seats?

    I need to decide this month if I get one or not...

    They look to be about as useful as the rear seats in a 911. Good for some luggage maybe..

    Re: New California pics

    In reading the Ferrari magazine it appears that the F1 gearbox gears are "engaged and shift up and down via compensators ON the steering wheel". I read this to mean that there are no paddles and have the same set up as the Porsche PDK. Am I missing something?

    I hope I am because I dislike the buttons on the steering wheel.

    Re: New California pics

    Nick you can relax. It has F1 style paddles



    SciFrog,

    Here is a pic of the rear. Not much leg room unless front occupants aren't tall and from other pics I've seen the backrests are almost vertical like the 997 cab's.



    Looks like Ferrari pulled the pics and video I linked to on Autogespot in my initial post.

    Re: New California pics

    those wheels definitely lift the car up.

    I know lawyers like to follow word for word but I bet it was a mistranslation. No chance in hell would they put it ON the steering wheel.
