Di niente

I think she will be California replacement.

[Avantifer12]

Bellissimo! A new dream is born.

That's kind of out of the blue...I had no idea that we'd be seeing a new Ferrari so soon, the 458 Speciale was just unveiled in September. Can't wait to see this new beauty!

Those lines on that picture give me an impression that there will be some styling cues brought over from the F12 berlinetta.

And as I've heard it's going to be a V8 turbo engine on this California replacement?

[fratelliferrari]

Can't wait for tomorrow

[fratelliferrari]

How late will it be revealed?

[tifosi1993]

Waiting is painful.

So, it isn't released yet, but I'm guess this is the new car.

Whoa, looks absolutely fantastic!

I really liked the "old" California as well but this is a very nice evolution. Any pics of the back?

Nothing yet. I'm only guessing this is legitimate. It does seem to match up with the drawing on the site.

Looks stunning, a really great and beautiful evolution of the California, wouldn't expect anything less from Ferrari. Another amazing masterpiece, and 552 hp for a entry level car...that's just mind-blowing! Great work from the guys at Maranello, bravo! Che bella macchina!

[Hornet]

Looks a lot like a Berlinetta with convertible roof

[Liscia]

The body is much improved with the front now handsome and purposeful but that motor
is the knockout punch for me! In both specification and looks! Fitting that Ferrari has it's
first turbo production car since the F40 at the start of the new turbo era in F1!

Bellissimo. Bella..I saw a Cali the other day and have always loved the most civilized of Ferrari offerings, now
I love it even more.
Me want! Yet another stunning masterpiece..

Too similar to the F12; I was hoping they would try and carve out a compelling new identity or scrap it completely. At least it's not as ugly as the one it replaces.

I don't think you can seriously call this as "ugly". I agree that the new version looks better but the "old" version of California was/is beautiful as well.

[Nova]

One mans ugly is another mans treasure....At this point in time, there are no ugly Ferrari's..
There have been a few in the past, during certain periods, and I wouldnt call them ugly, but right now? Nah.
The LaFerrari takes some getting used to, but seeing it from different angles, helps, plus seeing a pic of 1 that is all 1 color
also helps. Not too crazy about the twotone.
