2012 Ferrari California


 
  Review 
 
   

Ferrari launched the California GT back in 2008 at the Paris Auto Show, but for the 2012 model year, the California will get some special treatment in the form of a big update. The model will be about 66 lbs lighter and will deliver an additional 30 HP. Both the exterior and interior will also be improved.

The new 2012 Ferrari California will be powered by the same 4.3 liter V8 engine, but will get new software and improved machining of the internals to achieve the 30 HP boost. This increase will bring the output up to a total of 483 HP and 373 lb-ft of torque. And since it is also 66 lbs lighter, performance will get a bump as well. The revised California will make the sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 3.85 seconds (down from 4.0 seconds).

Next to the technical improvements, the 2012 California will receive a few exterior and interior updates, including a bigger hard drive for the in-car entertainment system, 40 GB up from the current 30.

The new California will go into production in January 2012, making a debut in late 2011 a necessity.

UPDATE 04/13/2012: After making its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, the new 2012 California has been taken to Maranello where the car was tested by company drivers and the engineers that developed it. Check out the video by clicking on the image above!

It is already looks so awesome on its looks, why this one still needs to have a modification? Anyway, it is really a nice choice of body paint; it truly looks luscious and stunning on that.

California is one of the best roadsters of Ferrari! That’s why I wonder if why it’s still needed to have a modification on its exterior looks. Anyway, It’s a great thing that it has an impressive engine.

Yeah! Additional 30 hp is really great on it, and its total 483 horsepower is absolutely powerful for this California vehicle. Moreover, it also looks luscious on its body paint, which is very noticeable on it.

The additional 30 HP on its engine output is really great on it. Well, it seems so fun to drive with than on its previous output. Moreover, I must say that its aero dynamic packaged is very awesome on this.
