    I was out back to back at Fiorano in a Scuderia and a California riding with Dario Benuzzi. I can tell you that the California is not slow and handles really well. The transmission is fantastic. Really impressed with the car. Whether you like or dislike the looks of the car is personal taste. However anyone who doubts the DNA of the car should reserve judgement until you have a chance to see it perform in anger. The production line is absolutely amazing.

    We already know the Scuderia is an amazing car but did Dario take it to a new level?

    Dario would take a shopping cart in the grocery store to a new level

    I just saw one for the first time with those very colors you just said earlier this evening at a launching party, and surprisingly I was loving the looks of it.

    And although I'd pick Grigio Titanio over Rosso Corsa for a California anyday, the pictures simply don't do this car justice.

    Dario passed me in an FXX he was testing at Fiorano after I was instructed to let him by and I could not stay with him for more than about 15 seconds. I really tried. The way he drives is unbeliveable; I seriously thought he was going to crash that FXX, when he overshot one of the turns, but it was all in a day's work for him. He was probably just brake-testing and it was all planned. I wonder if he still has his driver's "licencia" for public roads. Dario is the man.
