This car does look good with a 22/21 setup.

Just another reason why you NEVER buy a first model year Ferrari.

Moe, they don't have the same identical engine with only the ECU being tuned differently.

The California has different duration camshafts for low end torque and a completely different intake and exhaust system.

jasonrhcastle You are a Teamspeed member that Rocks and Rolls!

So, is this 100% not coming to US? My dealer still hasn't received word one way or the other from Ferrari NA.

Just got the official confirmation from my dealer. It is a no go for the 2012 US market vehicles.

Really disappointing. If I did have a non refundable deposit, I would have canceled my order and waited for 2013 production. However, think I will just keep this one a year or so and replace with an updated model.
