The Ferrari California T, produced from 2014 to 2017, is a grand touring convertible that succeeded the original California model. As Ferrari’s entry-level model during its production run, it combined luxury with performance, with approximately 10,000 units manufactured worldwide. This makes it relatively common compared to other Ferrari models, though certain limited editions and bespoke configurations enhance its appeal to exotic car collectors.
Powered by a 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the California T delivers 552 horsepower and 557 lb-ft of torque, achieving 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 196 mph. Its retractable hardtop, a signature feature, offers versatility as both a coupe and convertible. For collectors, the California T holds interest due to its status as one of the last naturally aspirated V8 alternatives before Ferrari’s broader shift to turbocharging. While not as rare as limited-run Ferraris, well-maintained examples, especially in unique colors or with Tailor Made program customizations, have shown steady value retention in the used market, often ranging between $100,000 and $150,000 depending on mileage and condition as of recent auctions.
