I don't like anything about it. SC430 styling, IS-F stacked quad pipe, Z3 fender louvers, camero hood scoop, single round tail lamp, Maserati-like front, video screen in instrumentation, plain seats. Poor marketing, design IMO. Who is the designer of this ugly duck?

The fit and finish of the interior looks pretty good despite of the bad design. If there is one thing I like about the California, this might be it.

Harsh criticism I know... I'd stick to 430 or Gallardo. I'll even take a Ford GT over this. It's that bad IMO...

one of their best interiors to date, and like most cars today I guarantee it looks 1000x better in the flesh(would also like to see it with the 599 20in wheels)

It's been done before, by mazda, lexus... Ferrari's were never done before... MOST of their designs have been new and fresh... not this one, it's just not pretty

Not feeling it, I mean, It's beatiful but, one of my least fav. designs from them. It looks stubby.
