    Congratulations, almost brand new and a very nice color combo. Nowadays at this early age they already know what they want and you can't blame her for having developed so quickly a great taste and enjoying to seat on the best leader.

    enjoy yours as much as I've already enjoyed mine.

    Congratulations!!

    Exactly the colorscheme I'm saving up for... (hard to find in Europe with LED steering wheel)

    Enjoy the car and quality time with your granddaughter!

    Wow, 1800 miles on a '10. Previous owner must have had a ton of other nice cars or great restraint. I'm more than two thirds of the way to that total in 8 weeks. Great looking car! Cute granddaughter. Please, get out there and put some miles on that poor, neglected Cali! 😀

    Congratulations to a kindred spirit! Since the 60's, I had always loved the classic Grigio Alloy/beige color scheme, and searched for about 2 yrs for a used one until I finally built one in 2013. You're very fortunate to have found one, particularly one with such low miles. My son took mine to his senior prom 4 yrs ago...perhaps in another 16 or so years, your daughter will do the same! Enjoy!

    I have had the Dodge Dart for 2 years, put 800 miles on it

    I have had the Ferrari for two weeks and already put 300 miles in it. I have to take it out every night after work !

    Some see a Ferrari as an investment and never drive them, some see as a car that is a blast to drive. I drive mine every chance I get, and love every minute.

    I hear ya. I literally try to think how I can best arrange my work schedule for the coming week to maximize seat time in my Cali. You're gonna be a great steward of that gorgeous Cali. Drive the wheels off it!

    More pics

    I really wanted LED steering wheel, embroidered headrests, but the low miles and color combo won out

    I am thinking about getting a warranty through the local Ferrari dealer. At $4500.00 per year it almost seemed worth it to "self insure " but then I read the thread about transmission repairs costing $25k and changed my mind
