Totally different car and only you can make that decision. I loved my California, but already had two daily drivers so I optioned to trade mine in as well for a 458. Only problem is, I've been driving a Porsche for the last month instead of a Ferrari as I wait for the 458 to be built.

Also waiting for a 458 spyder allocation to trade the Cali for, but might take up to 2 years (at sticker)
 . Before doing anything, consider trading it in. With such a high dollar car, the tax advantage usually puts it on par with private sales, at least in TX (6.25%). Without it, a private sale is definitely the way to go. Good luck.

I did just that - I traded it in and lost 3 grand from when i bought it - I have owned ALOT of exotics and i have to say that Cali was not for me! My 458 on the other hand is the best car I have ever owned... period!

funny you say that...
i bought my 2012 cali to get in line for the 458 spider at MSRP now i have used the rear seats soooo many times i cannot imagine going to a pure 2 seater i was coming from a gallardo spyder, and i would bottom the front end on every single entry/exit... if i remembered to use the front nose lift i would hold up traffic i haven't hit the nose on the cali yet could use a little more hp but otherwise a superb car!

Why is it a known recall? Or are you showing off your forum detective skills?

Mine has the lift system so I have been good - I have a couple of reg cars as drivers if I need the rear seats

Please more details. Who is your dealer, perhaps my dealer can contact him or something, if that makes sense?

 . Just curious, mostly on comfort, fit and finish, and driving experience. It's obvious both perform better than the Italia, but the difference is probably less than we think. And I MUCH prefer a NA engine than FI, even with a lot less power.And no, the Cali doesn't have the 'wow factor' to me either. Most people don't realize it's a Ferrari until they see the badge. I like that. But doesn't feel like a sports car IMO.

The wow factor diminishes over time when you own one and drive it. But for those who don't have one, it still wows. To me, it is a wolf in sheep attire and that's also why I like it. I DON'T want to draw (too much) attention. But it is so competent, and is so well rounded and is so easy to drive all the time that I can see why some call it bland. Those close to me think I'm crazy to be still car shopping looking for a " fun" weekend car when I already have the Cali. I guess in order to be exciting, a car should be difficult to drive everyday, a little rough around the edges, and have its requisite quirks. If that's the case, then the Cali misses the mark.
