Kevin RehbockFeb 16, 2012 The GranTurismo shares its platform with the Quattroporte.
Jordan SmithFeb 16, 2012 Is the California built on the same platform as the GranTurismo?
Teddy MacDonellFeb 16, 2012 California's are awesome but there's really not room for passengers in the back
Matthew McKernanFeb 16, 2012 I think the 458 Scuderia is next year but I'm not sure
Thibault LeroyFeb 16, 2012 i would think the F430 is kinda an entry level sports car
John SerelyFeb 25, 2012 Personally, I think the California is a great looking car.
Matt PiccoloFeb 17, 2012 I find it funny u guys want a zr1 over this lmao... This is beter in so many ways lmao
Adam SpankySlapsFeb 17, 2012 Ford fans usually have a stick up their asses for Chevy, they usually don't like Chevys, that's all. U seem a little immature
Greg KenerlyFeb 17, 2012 No doubt, to each his own. Just a humble guy saying that I'd feel awkward driving my California to Best Buy. Plus, i think the speed limit is the same no matter what car youre in. And think of the insurance for a 20something on a Ferrari.
P.S. I live in Atlanta and there are plenty of 3 bedrooms for $150k...lol
Carlos Eduardo GaviriaFeb 17, 2012 It depends where you live. In europe I would drive the zr1, it's rare over there and in the US I would drive the California
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 A cheap house and a used corvette orrr... a Ferrari. No brainier for me.
Timothy HookerFeb 16, 2012 200k would get u a descent house and used vette here....house prices r low
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 And there's nothing wrong with that...if anything it's awesome. I'm just stating my opinion on why I'd get the California if i had the option
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 @greg. I hear ya. But If everyone had a signed baseball by Ruth then no, I wouldn't want one nearly as much. & w.$200k u'd be parking ur vette beside a weak ass house lol. Ur right, everyone has a vette for a reason, its because it's fast and "cheap"
Paul DickeyFeb 16, 2012 @greg. I hope you're talking about a foreclosed house and a used vette.
Jordan SmithFeb 16, 2012 Amen Greg. I'd even take a Z06 over this. Then take it to Hennessey or Lingenfelter and let em do their magic.
Greg KenerlyFeb 16, 2012 Stephen I get what you're saying about Vettes but if everyone had Babe Ruth signed baseballs on their mantle would you want one less? I'm tired of the same old bs I hear about performance cars..."Everyone has one". There's a reason there are so many. It's because this car is a staple in American ingenuity. Plus the California is $200k. That's a paid-for house with a paid-for Vette in the garage.
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 Haha. I'd get this over any Chevy. I know the vettes got performance... But I pass vettes everyday. Maybe not the zr1 but 99% of ppl still see vettes as a middleclass "go-to" car after making a little money. Ferraris are exclusive and beautiful
John SerelyFeb 16, 2012 @FORD fan because I like the a7 more than the a8 lol
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 They are two different cars - Style, class, performance, price, etc. I'm sure you're aware of this - but needed to be said
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 @ford. If ur gonna ask "If ur going w.the a7 why not go w.the a8?" then I'm gonna ask - if you go w. the A8 why not go w.the S8? $25k difference from a7-> a8 -> s8. & asking the ? u asked is like asking "if ur going w.the cls why not go w.the S?"
Charlie LiberskiFeb 16, 2012 Not true, many people buy ferraris with intent to sell them no more than two years later because they can get most of their money back. And the convertibles, no matter which ones, are the best investments
Charlie LiberskiFeb 16, 2012 And lastly as great as the zr1 is, and all comparison aside, the zr1 is not going to hold it's value at all compared to the ferrari.
Charlie LiberskiFeb 16, 2012 First off Ferrari recently started offering reasonable maintenance packages for the first couple of years so the comment about maintenance fees is irrelevant. Second, whoever said they would take a vette gs over this is an idiot
John SerelyFeb 16, 2012 Personally, I'd take this over a vette in a heart beat (then sell it and get a 911 gt3 and an A7)
Adam SpankySlapsFeb 16, 2012 If ur a ford fan why would u drive a Chevy zr1?
Stephen Reed Warren IIFeb 16, 2012 My buddies dad had a California and his brother gave him so much crap cuz it was a "girls" car. He traded it in for a 458 half a year later. I thought the whole situation was ridiculous.
Jack HigginsFeb 16, 2012 So FORD fan, you own 3 cars. 1 is a viper and 1 is a custom zr1? I don't believe that for one second.
Aislin CooperFeb 16, 2012 Best looking retractable hardtop, plus a great looking car all around
Brandon LidyFeb 16, 2012 Looms a tad like the 599. Not bad Ferrari
David MikolyzkFeb 16, 2012 A corvette over this. That's funny. Pull up in this and people go DAMN! Pull up in a corvette and no one cares. It's still a Ferrari people.
Vito PortanovaFeb 16, 2012 Looks the same to me. And even If they call this the "poor mans Ferrari" or whatever else negative statements are made. I'll take it in a heart beat over a corvette or any other japans car out there!
Timothy HookerFeb 16, 2012 Looks good but Id take a Corvette gs.....same look ...less moolah
PetrolheadjackFeb 16, 2012 get a maserati gran cabrio... for 45,000 less
JGL ScuderiaFeb 16, 2012 WOW. this one look way meaner and quicker than the old one. really really good job on this ferrari. looks great!
Antonio RamthunFeb 16, 2012 In person this car looks so dope!
Dale SchroederFeb 16, 2012 It's cute how people call this the "poor man's" Ferrari when it still costs well over $100k just to own one, not to mention the huge annual maintenance costs.

Hampus KarlssonFeb 18, 2012 Will it have dual clutch gearbox?
Hank AustinFeb 16, 2012 Cuz ponies is catchy and carbuzz likes to spice it up sometimes
Pi Ka ChuFeb 16, 2012 Hahaha y not just use horses
Joshua ArnottFeb 16, 2012 It says on last page- 490 ponies
JGL ScuderiaFeb 16, 2012 good but how much powet is it going to have.. i guess about 460 hp.
John SerelyFeb 17, 2012 *all but one (two comments down)
John SerelyFeb 17, 2012 That was to Brandon, Vince and Greg. Know your facts guys. All but one Of the current ferraris are front engined. Please know know what your taking about before posting lol.
John SerelyFeb 17, 2012 All but one of the CURRENT ferraris are front engined. So, maybe you should know what your talking about before correcting someone, because when your wrong (like now) you look like a dumbass lol
Dayan Fernandez BatistaFeb 17, 2012 I don't care where the engine is. As far as it have one, even if it's on the passengers seat. This car is beautiful, kind of Ferrari that shows more class than others models that anyone who win lottery will buy.
John SerelyFeb 17, 2012 @greg WTF are you talking about lol
John SerelyFeb 16, 2012 Sorry about the confusion. I meant the current lineup. I guess I should have been more specific. I am right about the current lineup lol
John SerelyFeb 16, 2012 @heart really? I meant their current lineup lol. You should have read my post lol.
Kevin RehbockFeb 16, 2012 Technically Ferrari's current lineup is front-mid engined (FF, California, 599) and rear-mid engined only (458) because of where the center of mass is located. The last front engine Ferrari was the 575M and a true rear-engine model has never been made by the factory.
Greg KenerlyFeb 16, 2012 John drives a rear engine Miata. He knows his facts...
Vince DeMasiFeb 16, 2012 @john maybe you should know what your talking about before YOU post
Justin PedotoFeb 16, 2012 it is mainly the first, and modern Ferrari's that are front engined. the ones from the late 60s to the early 2000s are mid engined.
John SerelyFeb 16, 2012 @vince most ferraris are front engine. Only one (458) is mid. The others (FF, 599 and California are front engined) know what your talking about before posting lol
The GranTurismo shares its platform with the Quattroporte.
Is the California built on the same platform as the GranTurismo?
California's are awesome but there's really not room for passengers in the back
I think the 458 Scuderia is next year but I'm not sure
i would think the F430 is kinda an entry level sports car
And 458 Scuderia? Or is that next year?
New California, the 599 replacement, and the F70 Enzo replacement. this is gona be a good year for ferrari
My favorite car is the California. It's beautiful.
