you'll shoot your eye out (Novitec Ferrari Cali)














Novitec Rosso has unveiled a new styling and performance package for the Ferrari California.

To give the car an aggressive appearance, Novitec Rosso adds an aerodynamic carbon fiber body kit which includes a front spoiler, attractive side skirts, a rear diffuser, and a trunk-mounted spoiler. The finishing touch is three-piece NF3 wheels, which measure 9Jx21 front and 11.5Jx22 rear, outfitted with Pirelli tires.

In terms of performance, the company installed a new engine management system (with custom mapping for injection and ignition) and a stainless-steel exhaust system "with metal catalysts and a flap actuator operated from the Manettino switch on the steering wheel." These updates allow the 4.3-liter V8 engine to produce 500 hp (368 kW) and 518 Nm of torque (an increase of 40 hp and 33 Nm). Other tweaks include sport springs (which lowers the ride height by 35 millimeters) and a hydraulic lift system that raises the front end 40 millimeters.

Inside, Novitec Rosso offers an extensive customization program which allows customers to create a bespoke interior that reflects their unique tastes.

for the first time ever, I find myself liking the California.

The finishing touch is three-piece NF3 wheels, which measure 9Jx21 front and 11.5Jx22 rear, outfitted with Pirelli tires
I almost spit out my coffee when I saw that.
pretty sure they have that backwards and it's supposed to be 21x9 and 22x11.5

When I first saw it, I scrolled up as fast as I could in case I somehow HAD missed a 22" wide wheel!

lol, I didn't notice that. That would definitely have been interesting, if not absolutely ridiculous.
