Perfect Auto Collection Signature Listing 2012 Ferrari California VIN ZFF65LJA6C | 19,994 miles There are no turbochargers between your ear and the crankshaft. With the roof down, that turns out to be the entire point. Why We Acquired This Vehicle The California is the car in which Ferrari broke most of its own rules at once. It was the first Ferrari to put a V8 ahead of the driver rather than behind, the first with a folding metal roof, the first with direct injection, and the first with a dual-clutch gearbox. Every one of those decisions was argued about at the time. All of them are now simply how Ferrari builds cars. What matters more with hindsight is the engine. The 4.3-liter V8 is naturally aspirated, revving to peak power at 7,750 rpm, and it belongs to the last generation of Ferrari V8s built before turbocharging arrived. That is not a small distinction in an open car, where the exhaust and induction are the reason to lower the roof in the first place. This example is finished in Nero over Nero, and it was specified with a considered rather than a flamboyant hand - the cabin materials and detailing were chosen deliberately, and the verified appointments are detailed in full below. At 19,994 miles it has been driven and enjoyed without being worn, which is exactly what we look for in a car of this kind.

We ask a simpler question: does it stir something, and would we be proud to keep it in our own collection? This California answered in a quieter way than most Ferraris do. It is the one you can actually use - a naturally aspirated V8 and an open roof in a car that will also carry two people to dinner without turning the evening into an event. Nero over Nero suits that character: this is a Ferrari specified to be driven regularly rather than parked where it can be seen. Why Enthusiasts Value This Model The California was designed to widen what a Ferrari could be asked to do. Moving the V8 ahead of the cabin made room for occasional rear seats and real luggage space; the folding metal roof made it a closed coupe in bad weather and a convertible in good; and the dual-clutch gearbox made the whole car usable in traffic in a way earlier Ferraris were not. What draws informed buyers now is what came after. Ferrari replaced this car with the turbocharged California T for 2015, which means the naturally aspirated 4.3-liter cars are a closed set. Turbocharging brought more torque and a very different voice; it did not bring back the top-end shriek of an engine making its peak power at 7,750 rpm with nothing muffling the intake. What buyers are looking for among them is specific: honest mileage, a color combination chosen rather than accepted, a cabin specified beyond the standard build, and a seller willing to describe condition plainly. That is why the details of a car matter - they are the difference between a listing that claims a car is a good one and one that can show it. Factory and Vehicle Highlights 4.3-Liter Naturally Aspirated V8 The California's 4.3-liter direct-injected V8 is mounted ahead of the cabin and produces 453 horsepower at 7,750 rpm, driving the rear wheels. Why it matters: Naturally as&gt;
