2013 Ferrari California Roadster on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States

A picture ,yourself in The California's direct-injected 4.3-liter V8 now makes 490 horsepower - an increase of 37 ponies - thanks to revised engine mapping and an upgraded exhaust manifold. Torque also grows from 357 lb-ft to 372 lb-ft . This marvelous beauty of a car engine power continues to be transmitted to the wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. This gearbox boasts shifts as quick as the automaker's earlier single-clutch gearboxes but with a much higher degree of refinement. Reigning in the momentum generated by the above-mentioned partners in crime are standard carbon ceramic brakes at all corners, which also keep the forged alloy wheels clean of brake dust.Inside, the California rewards owners with surprising attention to detail and a quality feel that hasn’t always been present in cars bedecked with the prancing horse badge. Front seats are firm but comfortable, while the rear 2+2 seats are best reserved for children, pets or cargo. Overall, the interior may come across as plain to those accustomed to more ornamentation in the cockpit, but we’d call it a timeless design that won’t look tacky in ten years.
The real reason to buy a Ferrari lies beneath its hood, and the California is no exception to this rule. Its 4.3-liter V-8 gets a 30-horsepower bump in output for 2013, so it’s now rated at 490 hp and 373 pound-feet of torque. It’s also 30 kilograms (66 pounds) lighter than last year’s model, which cuts the 0-60 mph time down to 3.8 seconds, on the way top speed of 193 mph. As for transmission, the only choice available is a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic. While no Ferrari can be panned as having sloppy handling, the California’s forte is not track days or autocross events, and the car is happiest when driven 10-percent or so below its (still substantial) limit. Those wanting sharper performance can opt for the new Handling Speciale package, which does help reduce body roll at the expense of ride comfort. Acceleration and braking potential are beyond reproach, and no sane owner will ever come close to probing the car’s limits on public roads . Dont miss your opportunity to get because cars like this were made for people who love quality and such passion behind the wheel who doesnt just look at as car but a time piece collection.

2015 Ferrari LaFerrari [w/video]
Thu, 12 Jun 2014What a year it's been for enthusiasts who love high-performance, higher-dollar automobiles. The past twelve months or so have been consumed with the three horsemonsters of today's hybrid hypercar enlightenment: the Porsche 918 Spyder, the McLaren P1 and the Ferrari LaFerrari. Getting into just two of the three would be better than a lump of coal in one's stocking come holiday time, but for me, it'd still leave things feeling sadly incomplete, gnawing from within 'til the end of days.
Getting the call from Maranello, therefore, was even more fortunate and satisfying. The 918 Spyder - the only seriously green hybrid of the trio - shook me up with its sophisticated menu of technologies. The McLaren P1 remains more of a true hypercar than the Porsche, what with its e-motor designed to boost the lightweight beast to supernatural speeds above any terrestrial concerns like fuel efficiency. And now it's time for the Italian with the funny name, LaFerrari. No mistake about it: I've been waiting all year for this car a little more than I've been waiting for the other two.
This run of hypercars built up over the year like a famous three-part opera: The enthralling start of the drama sitting in the Porsche 918, tear-assing the heavier green dart around a track in Spain; then on to the UK with the lightness and quick heart of the biturbo V8 in McLaren's track-inspired P1, and it was all to be topped-off at Fiorano with the LaFerrari, fit for a Wagnerian finish.
Are you the Enzo-succeeding Ferrari F150?
Fri, 08 Feb 2013We've brought you no end of spy shots and rumors surrounding the new Ferrari hypercar, often referred to as F150, that is destined to succeed the Enzo as the Italian maker's top offering. Now, one new and highly speculative rendering has come to light whose origins are interesting, even if the final product is still pretty much a stab in the dark.
The rendering you see here was created by an organization called goldRush Rally, which published the image on its Facebook page. The claim is that this rendering was based on a "snapshot of a plaque with a sketch of the new supercar." We certainly won't speculate as to what kind of "presentation" a luxury-rally throwing company like gRR would be invited to - to say nothing of why there was a plaque bearing the image of a supercar that has been so well cordoned off from public eyes - but we'll roll with it because we love the internet.
Even if the story is completely true (big if), we're fairly certain the details of the rendering miss in some places relative to the real deal car. The front wheel wells, for instance, seem comically thin around the top, and hold wheels that are way out of proportion with the spy shots and videos we've seen so far. More promising, however, is the detailing of the door and sill of the F150 - portions of the car that have consistently been covered in spy shots.
CA man accused of stealing same Ferrari twice
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Cars get stolen all the time. It's an unfortunate reality, but a reality nonetheless. It's just unusual when the same guy steals the same car twice, but that's what apparently occurred recently in Fontana, CA.
That's where one Earnie Hooks was arrested late last month driving a black Ferrari 458 Spider. According to police, Hooks was intoxicated when he arrived at a roadside checkpoint, and when they ran the plates, they found the car was reported as stolen.
Hooks managed to evade police (not too hard to imagine given the car he was driving) and later abandoned the car, which was taken to the impound. Around 3 am the next morning, though, someone broke into the impound and stole the car... again. Hooks was found five days later in Studio City, still driving the stolen Ferrari. He was arrested and somehow still had the gall to plead not guilty to the charges of car theft and resisting arrest.
