About this car
The 2017 Ferrari California T delivers open-air grand touring with the performance expected from the marque. Finished in Nero Daytona Metallic over Nero leather, this convertible pairs a 3.9L twin-turbo V8 with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The engine produces 553 horsepower and 557 lb-ft of torque, enabling 0-60 mph acceleration in 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 196 mph. Its retractable hardtop transforms the car from coupe to convertible in 14 seconds while preserving structural rigidity and trunk space.
Factory-specified options include 20-inch forged diamond-finish wheels, red brake calipers, Scuderia Ferrari fender shields, and a front grille with chromed edges. The interior features prancing horse stitching on the headrests, coloured special stitching, and a High Power HiFi audio system. Carbon ceramic brakes are fitted, complemented by the standard xenon headlamps, touchscreen navigation, satellite radio, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-zone climate control, and front and rear parking sensors.
Additional standard equipment encompasses power bucket seats with manual driver and passenger lumbar support, a power tilt/telescoping steering column, leather upholstery throughout, an integrated navigation system with voice activation, and a full suite of driver aids including electronic stability control, F1-Trac traction control, and tire-pressure monitoring. The vehicle rides on a double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension with driver-adjustable ride control and hydraulic power-assisted steering.

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.
