    thanks, these are great additions. especially the outdoor shots really give a real life feel to the car. I must say, and this is a decidedly minority (and prejudiced) opinion from an owner of a 2012 California, that there are elements from the rear that I like less in the T. perhaps I have become accustomed to the previous car which I live with every day.

    Im of the opposite its the one area of my Cali that I've never been able to look at with admiration, personally I was sold on the T as soon as I seen the back :) We all have different opinions and I've had plenty folks tell me its stunning. Its just never worked for me, as for the rest of my Cali I just love it. New one just gets rid of that largeness, But hey look at J Lo doesn't stop us looking does it :)

    not a big fan of the rear side reflectors as seen in the last photo. I didn't pick up on them in the press photo of the dark red car.

    I was under strict instruction not to take any pics of that particular car, might get myself in trouble now :) Sorry they are not the best but it was diffucult whilst trying to hide the phone, but they are better than none at all :) They will probably spread like wildfire now :)

    Only downside for me is same steering wheel as 458, just couldn't get used to indicators being on there but Im sure ill get used to them given time.

    I love it! It's curious how subtle changes can be the difference between ok and beautiful. It's an intangible. Just like art. As long as it has all of the emotion and boy racer sound.., it for sure will be a huge success!

    You have to drive through Stanton to do that.

    Thanks for posting these shots .. I definitely like the rear view much better .. also the side profile .. I am ok with the front but I always like the front 3/4 shot of the current california..overall a solid plus in the design...

    It is interesting that Ferrari is willing to have 3 current models with almost identical frontend designs. A casual observer will have difficulty distinguishing the California T, F12 and the FF from one another.

    Neil- They surely do not look the same to me and anyone having trouble telling a California T from an FF from any angle would have to be myopic.

    Thanks for posting. Ferrari central styling has indeed done a nice job here. This bodes well for the 458 replacement, which is expected to be an evolutionary change, just like the California.

    I am anxious to get reports of how the TT works on this tiny engine. I am sure there is plenty of torque but is it a Ferrari engine?
