i hate the looks of the Cali especially the front
but i have to say i dont like the 430 front either..
its to soft..
I wish it would look like the scud in normal guise..

I'm extremely busy at the moment - two tests next week! I hope, that Christian has some time to translate some of the most important parts. I don't have even read the article - just scanned them!!

I read the article, and basically that's what they want to say to

edit; one think i noticed, that can be a nice argument that this is a cheap ferrari, is that the Manettino gearbox has only 3 settings, whereas there are five for the F430

now, for more details, i gotta find me dictionary

I think the whole world said that about the old Ferrari Mondial too...

Ferrari California: Keep it.

F430 any day of the week - even in white.

Re: [scans] AMS: Ferrari California vs. Ferrari F430 Spider

Seeing pictures of the two cars side by side just highlight how much the California looks like a pimped up Hyundai Genesis Coupe. Too overstyled for my taste.

Re: [scans] AMS: Ferrari California vs. Ferrari F430 Spider

F430 Spider because the "California" is such a fake Ferrari. A proper Ferarri is smooth, sleek and very stylish and the California just isn't, its "PIMPED"
