2010 Ferrari California

There are no significant changes for the 2010 Ferrari California.

California is a different sort of state and it's a different sort of Ferrari, too. The California is the first Ferrari to get a dual-clutch automated manual transmission. It's surprisingly agile and an easy car to drive hard -- perfect for the first-timers Ferrari anticipates the California will attract.

In the
2010 Ferrari California's price range is the Aston Martin DB9 Volante, while Aston's V8 Vantage Roadster, Audi's R8 Spyder and Maserati's GranTurismo are notably cheaper.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The
2010 Ferrari California retractable-hardtop convertible comes standard with 19-inch wheels, bi-xenon headlights, the "manettino" steering wheel knob for adjustable vehicle settings, full leather interior, fold-down rear seatback, a trip computer, hard-drive navigation system and a CD player sound system with touchscreen interface.

The rear-wheel-drive Ferrari California is powered by a 4.3-liter V8 that cranks out 460 hp and 357 pound-feet of torque. A seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual is the only available transmission. According to Ferrari, the California is capable of sprinting from zero to 60 mph in fewer than 4 seconds. Antilock disc brakes, front side airbags, an automatically deploying rollbar, and stability and traction control are standard on the
2010 Ferrari California.

Like every current Ferrari, the new California has an interior befitting its lofty price.

Driving Impressions
Weighing about 3,800 pounds, the
2010 Ferrari California is hardly an elemental sports car.
