    Corsa red and beige. The only deviation from stock is about a 20% window tent which I didn't even know and then they have the roof wrapped in a black mat vinyl


    Back to the original posters question, I think the California 30 is the best deal for the most depreciation and the best value, they don't sound half shabby either, unless you can find a 2015 or newer that has a ton of options. It's definitely not as fast as a 458 but we are talking about a very nice GT car.

    I think the one to get is a 2013 or one of the few 2014s and I would add get the sport suspension package only about 25% of the 13s had it but it is the one to

    get.In my mind. they can usually be recognized by the silver gill vents . only available in 2013/14
    It makes a nice difference most of these

    The silver grill and vents were part of the HS Pack but could be optionally deleted when ordering the car. The HS Pack may also have been added after delivery as an upgrade and would have not come with the silver grill and vents.

    The dealer will be able to pull the paperwork showing the car has the HS Pack. If you drive a few Calis back-to-back, the HS car handling will feel noticeably more dynamic and compliant. The HS car will also sit slightly lower than Calis with the standard suspension.

    In reality, the HS Cali30 is as quick as a 458 at street legal speeds and has brakes better from 60 mph.
