Ferrari California. Dec 08
To be strictly accurate as the engine and drivetrain sit entirely between the axle lines, it is as much a mid-engined car as the F430.
The mid-front mounted V8 engine, although built to the classic 90 degree V8, is all new and features direct fuel injection, cutting emissions.
Also new for Ferrari is the dual clutch gearbox that effectively reduces gear change times to zero, the folding metal roof and the multilink suspension that blends traditional Ferrari handling and adhesion to the road with a new level of ride quality and comfort.
