nothing terribly exciting, but figured id make a thread in here finally.

Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo was offered a unique opportunity this week. The Italian got the chance to test Ferrari's brand-new road car, the new Ferrari California, 2+ convertible. Luca di Montezemolo put it through its paces over several laps at Ferrari's Fiorano circuit.

"I am very satisfied indeed with the work that the women and men of Ferrari have done," declared Luca di Montezemolo. "The California is an extraordinary car and I was delighted with the performance, comfort and driving pleasure it delivered. The California is, like all of our models, the epitome of cutting-edge innovation. Its gearbox, suspensions and chassis are the most advanced possible. This is the first dual-purpose Spider/Coupé with a retractable hard top that closes in just 14 seconds. Despite its extraordinary performance, the California 2+ is also exceptionally easy to drive and has a space behind the front seats that makes it supremely flexible in terms of usage."

The text was written by the Ferrari PR department. I doubt he did more than sit in it briefly.
