Ferrari California live video from Paris motor show

The Ferrari California is so talked about, it’s nearly embarrassing for a vehicle that most of us will never be able to afford. I have a limited experience with these brands, though you will often see a Ferrari on Lake Como and I even had the fortune to wander in to the Concorso d’Eleganza at Villa d’Este last year.

I like the California though. I like its cheeky lines and its chunky look. My colleague at autoblog.it is not so convinced though, saying “I can’t digest it - it’s as heavy as a Sunday lunch”. After making certain comparisons to Jennifer Lopez and the rear of the car, he reveals that the roof function has created a necessary design glitch that is difficult to get over.

Over on style mens, they question the current worldwide recession. It certainly hasn’t affected Ferrari California sales. Looks like the we’re all still very good at indulging - or is it just a shifting of what’s necessary in life…?
