If you’re seeking an exotic roadster that is easy to live with in any season, the 2012 Ferrari California convertible may fit you like an Italian leather glove. There is no manual transmission offered, so anyone can enjoy the car, and the retractable hardtop makes this a year-around driver.
Hardcore Ferrari enthusiasts will prefer their front-engine cars with a V12 and as little extra weight as possible. A closed-top FF or F12berlineta is probably going to be a more satisfactory ride. Those who prefer a proper manual may find something from Porsche more desirable.
