Colleagues English ages have published the lists of official Ferrari California: beyond the English Channel, the first coupe-cabriolet Horse will cost 143,000 pounds, the equivalent of 184,000 euros. This list is reflected in Britain in a position midway between the F430 berlinetta and spider, and also by us, if imaginary (but not too) in which the price should accurately reflect the current exchange rate, the same “hierarchy” remain unchanged, with a share berlinetta and spider 172,500 to 189,500.

The incredible news arrives from England, where an anonymous rich and passionate bought a Ferrari car of the most beautiful and rare as ever, the 250 GTO’62, for some 15.7 million pounds, equivalent to approximately 20 million Euro to exchange today, almost double estimates. Just the GTO was for years the reference of auction houses as the most expensive car ever fought, then passed recently by the 250 GT California sold by Sotheby’sa Maranello few months ago to 7 million euros.

The debut will take place at the Paris Motor Show, but in the evening of Thursday, September 18, Ferrari has organized a private event to show to preview the new car California to a select group of clients and friends. Mille invited to Maranello, as many in Los Angeles at Santa Monica: Luca di Montezemolo officers and pilots Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa were invited accepted the Italian government buildings in the new production line Ferrari car .

Inevitable even Michael Shumacher, who has participated actively in the development of the coupe cabriolet pony motor front. The official website offers a video of the event, with detailed new car of California.

There is little to do. Since the launch of Ferrari car Enzo, presented the now distant Paris Ferrari Car Motor Show 2002, six years have passed, and the Prancing Horse has sfornato several models, all to its heavy name and all beloved by fans. But there is nothing that can stir as the model tip of the range, F40, Enzo or however you call it.

E ‘for some months now that around Maranello spy photographers are strange sightings in July was the turn of a bizarre 360, now, two months away from those early shots, here appear as a suspected F430.

What are the details that smascherano the true nature mechanical mentite hidden under the guise of “small” home? Looking carefully you will note the step lengthened, the track wider and quell’inconfondibile group of terminals exhaust positioned at the centre of the rear bumper. Obviously, the two terminals a there Scuderia you see above, are posticci.

The items corridor seem confirmed: although this is a clear “oxymoron”, Ferrari Car will present at year-end version of the spider 430 Scuderia. In the eyes of many is a move of pure marketing, since the development of extreme and minimalist Scuderia, requested, it seems not be suitable for glamour and style version of the spider.

The only hope is that the spider becomes a kind of boat, voted to the lightness and sportsmanship without compromise. Currently, the spider weighs about 70kg more than the coupe. Ferrari Car is determined to achieve a limited range, probably already in the viewfinder of collectors, in 300 specimens and probably will be unveiled preview of the final World Challenge Ferrari Car at Mugello, scheduled in November.
