REPORTBEAUTIFUL STYLING WITH INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING
Reprising the hallowed California name originally applied to 250 GT
California Spyder and 365 California, the 2+2 hardtop convertible
Ferrari California broke cover at the 2008 Paris Motor Show and
marked several Ferrari firsts. As the first production Ferrari
sporting a folding metal roof, the California was also the first
front-mounted V-8 Ferrari and the first from Maranello equipped
with a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic gearbox with
manual-shifting capability. Beautifully sculpted bodywork designed
by Pininfarina was the product of extensive wind-tunnel testing and
featured numerous functional aerodynamic features. The roof is a
technical masterpiece in itself, transforming the California T from
sleek coupe to glamorous convertible in just 14 seconds. The
Californias chassis was developed by Scaglietti and set new
standards of design and development excellence as well. While
certainly beautiful, the California delivers true Supercar
performance in every possible discipline, exemplified by the
second-generation California debuted in 2014 with a
twin-turbocharged 3.9-liter V-8 engine rated at 553 HP. Capable of
0-60 mph sprints in 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 196 mph, the
California T is simply one of Ferraris fastest, best-looking and
most-enjoyable current models.Beautifully finished in Rosso Mugello
(Mugello Red) over Tan upholstery, this stunning 2017 Ferrari
California T is a one-owner example, accompanied by an impeccably
clean CARFAX report and just 1,969 miles of use at the time of
writing. Virtually as-new, this top-quality 2017 Ferrari California
T is beautifully presented throughout from its handsome exterior to
its luxurious, yet highly functional interior, striking twin-turbo
engine bay and clean, undamaged undercarriage and belly pan. Fully
equipped with factory options and amenities for a fabulous
all-around driving experience, this 2017 Ferrari California T is
equipped with the optional HS Handling Speciale appearance and
suspension upgrade package costing $8,150 new. Among the HS
upgrades are discreet appearance updates including matte chrome
front grille and rear diffuser, plus darker-finish exhaust tips.
Functional tweaks include stiffer front and rear springs,
reprogrammed magnetic dampers for sportier handling
characteristics, and a more-aggressive Sport driving mode. Exhaust
sound is updated to match, with new exhaust silencers one per side
delivering a more menacing note. Ferraris renowned seven-speed,
dual-clutch transmission was also revised on HS-optioned cars with
30 per cent quicker upshifts and 40 per cent quicker downshifts for
fantastic response to driver inputs. Of particular note, the
HS-specific steering upgraded the somewhat over-assisted
directional control of the standard models for improved response.In
addition to the clean CARFAX report already mentioned above, this
stellar 2017 Ferrari California T is accompanied by the proper
factory tool tray, books and manuals. Respected from launch among
magazine road-testers and Ferraris demanding clients alike, the
California T seamlessly blends immense style with the stunning
performance and handling that only Ferrari can deliver. With just
one owner and fewer than 2,000 miles from new, this beautiful
example delivers that rich tradition in abundance.
