Test drove the new Ferrari California yesterday. What an amazing car!
It's surprisingly fast, easy to drive and just a lovely place to sit.
I found it pretty comfy (which I wasn't really expecting). It's steering is just incredible, both light and engaging, the brakes are phenomenal and the engine noise is just fantastic.

The gearchange is a revelation - absolutely no torque interruption, which has got to be the secret of it's amazing performance.

I desperately want one, it's got to be the best all-rounder I've ever driven - it really can do just about anything (apart from off-roading!) wink

If you're impressed with the gearbox, you must try a R35 GTR biggrin

Yes - apparently there'll be sport exhausts for it next year, so hopefully that'll sort this issue out!
