Ferrari California.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Ferrari California arrived in 2008 as the brand's entry-level GT, offering a folding hardtop and a more relaxed driving experience than mid-engined Ferraris. It's popular with buyers seeking usable everyday performance and open-air motoring, though running costs remain significant. Prospective owners should pay close attention to service history and look for evidence of regular maintenance at Ferrari specialists, as neglect can prove expensive.
