Latest Ferrari Debut Adds More Sparkle to the Luxury Car Spark-Is Your Spark Missing?

The official North American debut of the Ferrari California was made, fittingly, in Los Angeles California at the Los Angeles Auto Show.  The hardtop convertible has pulses racing, capable of zero to 60 mph in under 4.0 seconds, powered by a 453 horsepower front-mounted V8 with a twin-clutch seven speed automatic transmission and serving as a decadent slice of South Beach luxury rental carFerrari California-the perfect South Beach luxury rental car eye candy as well!

This all-aluminum treat to the world of exotic cars is the first car from Ferrari to feature an engine mounted in mid-front position.  The Ferrari California also features an F1-Trac traction control system, first offered in the 599 GTB Fiorano.

Sporty, innovative, topless and fast-the luxurious Ferrari California embodies the Prancing Horse in its own unique and stylish way, hinting that there is more personality to ooze out of the brand in years to come.  Just looking at photos of the new luxury car in a red shiny new coat gives us at Imagine Lifestyles the urge to roll one through the streets of South Beach, taking in the thrill of the sexy new exotic convertible while feeling the ocean breeze and taking in the beautiful sights of South Florida.

The rumor mill has speculated that the Ferrari California began as a Maserati, developed under the code name M139, and that it was then kept by Ferrari following the 2005 divorce of Maserati and Ferrari.  Ferrari opted to keep the M139 program, and thus the California model rides on the GranTurismo platform.  A medley of posh and playful, this car is the perfect South Beach exotic rental car for any occasion, even if it is just to let loose and have fun!  Have you considered a South Beach Ferrari rental?

Entourage Meets Ferrari Challenge, Set to Explode in Miami

Clearly, it’s a hit with all who matter!
Even the boys from Entourage are heading to the Ferrari Challenge in Miami-the luxurious sin city of the east coast.  The illustrious crew from the HBO hit series are set to continue their love affair with Ferrari as a July episode takes them to the Ferrari summit held at the Homestead Speedway south of Miami.

One of the Entourage stars, super agent Ari Gold, drives a Ferrari F430in the show.  Lead character and handsome young actor Vince is set to play Enzo Ferrari in a movie about the legendary car czar’s life and times.

It’s appropriate that the plotline should place them at the Ferrari Challenge, which is a must-be-there date on the calendar for dedicated Ferrari owners, and fellow luxury car worshippers.

The Miami event, held in March, marks the opening of a six-race series for Ferraris, held at tracks around the United States and Canada. It’s what the luxury carmaker calls an "exclusive experience” for its elite customers.  Owners can actually race on the professional tracks, or simply attend to be part of the glitterati and the atmosphere made up of people passionate about all things pertaining to the prancing horse logo that distinguishes Ferrari.

If not racing, the Ferrari Challenge in Miami extends to attendees a chance to dine in the luxurious VIP hospitality tents, take part in weekend driving clinics, or simply soak in the social atmosphere generated by thousands who share their love and enthusiasm for these luxury vehicles.

The Ferrari Challenge Series is organized by Ferrari North America and is sure heat up even Miami, as both are sizzling with what people want.  While you are booking your Miami Ferrari Challenge experience, (which I assume you began looking into while reading this) check out our South Beach luxury rental cars for maximum impact upon arrival because hey, you cannot very well attend a Miami luxury car event without exotic wheels can you?  We didn’t think so.  See you soon!

The $12 Million Ferrari Exotic 250TR. Luxury Exotic Sports Car Still Thriving.

The very rare 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa just sold at auction for about $12.2 million. This means: A. that somebody still has a lot of money, and, B. a new world record for the most expensive motor car sold at auction has been set.

"The historical significance of this car attracted a bidding war as collectors from around the world – both in the room and on the telephone – competed to secure one of the most alluring and iconic of all Ferrari racing cars," said Max Girardo, Managing Director of RM Auctions Europe. “The quality and the provenance of the Testa Rossa speaks for itself and the price we achieved today is testament to that.”

This Ferrari Scaglietti-designed "pontoon-fender" 250 Testa Rossa was one of only 22 ever made. Yet, the 250 TR is one of the most identifiable racing cars in Ferrari history and is coveted by Ferrari collectors. Famous car collector Ralph Lauren actually owns two. Maybe Ralph Lauren can set the new world record with one of his Ferrari 250 TRs, not that he cares.

The 2010 Ferrari California Unveiled

Drum roll please, here is the Ferrari California unveiled…

Ferrari is planning to take some market share from the AMG Mercedes SL, the Bentley Continental GTC, and the Aston DB9 Volante with the 2010 Ferrari California. Ferrari had introduced direct fuel inject technology to their famous V8, positioned over the front axle. A new 4.3 liter V8  will do zero to 60 mph in around 4 seconds with a 194 mph V-max. Additionally, the California’s new seven speed twin-clutch transmission changes gears faster than the F430 Scuderia.

Ferrari predicts that 70% of California customers will be new to the marque and most likely not serious drivers. Which is exactly what Ferrari wanted with the California; a target market that rather play a leisure round of golf than do Ferrari Challenge laps. The push-button automatic hardtop does an up-and-down in 14 seconds and roof up, the California can fit two sets of gold clubs in the trunk. The 2010 Ferrari California will write a new chapter in history for the famous Italian automaker. For a firm built on racing laurels and Formula One victories it seems popularity and commodity are most important right now. Ferrari wants to sell the new model for under $190,000, possibly even less. With a lower price and more versatile coupe-convertible body, Ferrari may just dilute the Ferrari brand name. Tell us what you think? One thing is definite, you can bet on seeing a few Ferrari Californias in your neighborhood by 2010.
