Nicer look than the old version imo. Much less lardy at the back.

The new California T is powered by a low-mounted direct-injection 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing 552bhp at 7500rpm and 557lb ft of torque. Ferrari says the California T can accelerate from rest to 62mph in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of 196mph, both marginal improvements over the old model.

I have high hopes for this one. I really didn't get on with the California at all, came very close to buying one for my wife but even she thought it felt gutless and simply not worth the money over the Maserati GTS.
 
Its okay...

Whilst it is in no way a competitor (I am just looking for an excuse to post a picture!) I would do anything for the new S class coupe!!

Wows.
 
Interesting that S-Class coupe. It looks very short compared to the saloon...now I know that's what coupe implies, but in this case they seem at first glance to have chopped rather a lot off. Beautiful though.

Back to the Ferrari, well yeah, it's lovely.
 
I thought the CL was an S coupe already?

It was/is, but they are dropping the CL moniker and its being called the S Class Coupe instead. IT LOOKS AMAZING. The Ferrari on the other hand, never found the California to be a particularly interesting car. At least it no longer has those terrible exhausts any more.
 
What ever next a turbo charged Lamborghini, a GT3RS...

This is the death of high performance N/A engines folks. (Yes, I know but they were not quite the same were they ;) )
