The name is the only part about it that's good, because it reminds me of a real Ferrari.

This thing, as awesome as the specs are, and as sublime as I'm sure it'll be to drive, just does nothing for me aesthetically. It looks like a sports car, but that's about it. Sure as hell doesn't get me excited.

I understand the name, but I still don't like it.
 
The names rubbish...you don't call a car after ANY place! California is cool as a place but not cool as the name of a Ferrari car!

Front mounted V8?! Whats the weight distrubution?! But I guess those drivers don't care as they'll have an Atom for the track 😀

ehh... it looks a little *too conventional to be a ferrari. I like my ferraris to look more aerodynamic and aggressive... this one looks like a nice convertible for blonde girls cruising down PCH rather than powering through the curves.

SO...you are saying that there hasn't been any "real" Ferrari's since the 50's or 60's?

WOW.

Weight distribution? The retractable hardtop takes care of it.
News flash folks: There are people out there who likes cool cars that doesn't think weight distribution is everything.
That car looks awesome, turns heads, and sounds like utter beauty. And all you have to say is weight distribution?
 
looks pretty nice with the top down, with it up all I can think of is how it reminds me of a Mercedes wanna be sports car. And it will cost an arm and a leg, they should be SHOT for attaching the prestigious name of California to this travesty of a car.

The car looks cool and it is more user friendly with a boot and 2 sudo back seats.

Yes there are people that care but this is a Ferrari with a racing pedigree! Not your average car! But I guess the rich want a car that is more user friendly and that you could use as a daily driver.

The California is very cool, but not utter beauty imo.

I'd take an F430 😀

So you disagree with the 550 Maranello, 360 Modena, 599 Fiorano, 365 Daytona, and virtually every Ferrari from the 50s (America, Mexico, Europa, Superamerica, California and Monza)? Makes sense...
 
It looks better than the Ferrari SuperAmerica.

I like the name myself. Too many people regurgitate the opinions of Jeremy Clarkson these days.
 
I'm sure it looks much nicer in person. It looks decent from some angles, not so good from others. The side vent looks terrible, and I don't like how it tries to flow into the side crease. Also, did they outsource the rear end to TVR or something?

What TVR has a rear end that looks like the one on the Ferrari? 😕
