About this car

The 2012 Ferrari California delivers open-top grand touring with its striking Azzurro Metallic Paint exterior and Light Beige leather interior. Powered by a 4.3L V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, this convertible has covered just 18,288 miles and features a power-retractable aluminum hardtop for seamless weather protection.

Performance hardware includes launch control, a limited-slip differential, aluminum body chassis, front double-wishbone suspension, rear multi-link suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars, speed-sensitive power rack-and-pinion steering, and Brembo ceramic disc brakes. Variable valve timing on both intake and exhaust sides supports the engine's responsive character, while F1-Trac traction and stability control works with the four-wheel anti-lock braking system.

Exterior details comprise a rear lip spoiler, high-intensity projector beam headlights with washers, delay-off and dusk sensor, rear LED brake lights, rear fog lamps, power heated exterior mirrors, a glass rear window, and rain-sensing intermittent windshield wipers. Inside, the cabin offers a power tilt/telescoping steering wheel with the Manettino drive-mode selector for comfort, sport, and track settings, plus dual-zone climate control, remote power door locks, power windows with one-touch operation, and an anti-theft alarm system.

About the Ferrari California

Production: 2008–2014
Est. units built: 12,460
Cylinders: 8
Powertrain: Combustion
Body: Convertible

The Ferrari California, introduced in 2008 at the Paris Motor Show, was produced from 2009 to 2017, marking Ferrari's return to front-engine V8 grand tourers with a retractable hardtop convertible design. Approximately 8,000 units were built during its production run, making it relatively accessible compared to other Ferrari models, though still exclusive for collectors. It was succeeded by the Ferrari Portofino in 2017.

Equipped with a 4.3-liter V8 engine in its initial years (later upgraded to a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 in the California T variant from 2014), it delivered between 453 hp and 552 hp, achieving 0-60 mph in around 3.5-3.9 seconds depending on the model. A key feature for collectors is its status as Ferrari's first hardtop convertible and first dual-clutch transmission car, blending innovation with classic GT styling. While not as rare as limited-run Ferraris, the California holds steady value in the used market, with prices typically ranging from $80,000 to $150,000 based on condition and variant. The California T, with its turbocharged engine, is often seen as a more desirable option due to improved performance and fuel efficiency.
