Fifth Gear tests the Ferrari California



Great looking car, but i prefer a F430 Spyder.
I'd buy this for my future wife to follow me in a F430 if i had the dough

Let's discuss something of far greater importance: the 5th Gear chick, is she hot or not?

I can't make my mind up about that.

Edit: Ok now I'm starting to get really worried about the not so distant future, 2 minutes into the test currently and so far I haven't heard anything about 0-60 times, cornering G's or horsepower. No instead we get this load of bullcrap about 'user friendliness', 'eco commitment' and worst of all the first statistic that gets mentioned is the amount of CO2 it emits.

Dear friends of 5th Gear and all other Prii out there, it's a ****ing FERRARI, it is supposed to tear down the Amazonian rainforest for a dayjob and just for fun club baby seals to death in the weekend.

Oh and btw: lolz @ the 'eco-commitment', this car is 200 kg heavier than a 599...

Not, I got the vibe that she lives somewhere In the midlands sipping green tea after lunch, making her own sweaters.

She's somewhere in between the two.
