Default 2009 Ferrari California

The 2009 ferrari California, the new Pininfarina design. A lot of the critics don't seem to like the styling - most notably the old style chrome laced front grille. I on the other hand like how the car looks - especially in orange.

I like the design very much. Everything with black rims gets my vote! It looks like an awesome car to drive. At least you will get attention with such a Pininfarina design

Interesting that it's quite a compact design - the more I look at it the more I like it

Hey don't chose yet, you haven't seen all the choices. Yves I'm sure they will put a color match stripe on the rim if you ask nicely with your order.

Seeing the new photo's i go for a grey one but they with orange chairs instead of the red ones.

No serious, i cannot understand the critics on this car. It looks very very classy to me! But then again a Pininfarina designed car is always a joy to see

Maybe it sounds weird but I gotta say I really like the pink one most.

Yes I agree, the front looks great to me - especially the grille, and I love the way the rear fender lines sort of turn into the tail lights. Also, the dual stacked exhaust looks really, well, bad ass for lack of a better term.

Easily one of the lesser Ferrari's out there but not as bad as the F430. There are so many clashes in design in this car its starting to get sad every time Ferrari annouce a new model. The only part that appeals to me on any level is the cluster gauge, its very classical and doesn't scratch the eyes like the outside does. The front looks very MR2ish and the rear I got no words....

The 599 remains the only car I can look at from Ferrari for a prolonged period of time, current Alfa 8C and Maser GT S put anything Ferrari has out to shame in the looks department.
