In 2008 At The Paris Motor Show The Ferrari California Was Showcased To The World, However Prior To This Unveiling There Was Plans To Market The Car With The Maserati Motif, However Due To The Extensive Costings The Heads Of The Management Team At The Maranello Factory Decided On Decorating The Car With The World Famous Prancing Horse. Designed By Ken Okuyama At Pininfarina, This Fabulous All New Grand Touring Supercar Was To Have For The First Time A Front Mounted Engine, Which Initially Raised A Few Eye Brows To The Purist Of Ferrari Owners, However This Did Not Stop The Car Being A Massive Success To Worldwide Buyers And The Motoring Press. The Engine Opted For From The Factory Was A Four Point Three Litre V8, Which Generated A More Than Healthy 460 Brake Horse Power, Which Would Easily Accelerate From 0-62 MPH In Just 3.9 Seconds And Would Further Climb To An Electrically Limited Top Speed Of 193 MPH, With All This Power Available With Or Without The Solid Convertible Roof In Place. Other Impressive New Features Included A Sensational Seven Speed Dual Clutch Transmission And Again For The First Time A Multi Linked Rear Suspension System, Making Every Journey Perfectly Controlled, No Matter The Distance. The Body Design Was A Masterpiece For The Italian Factory, As Nearly 1,000 Hours In The Wind Tunnel With A One Third Scale Model Of The California Perfecting Its Aerodynamics And After All This Immense Effect For All Involved, The Ferrari California Was To Be The Most Aerodynamic Ferrari Ever Made, Up Until The F12 Berlinetta At Least.
