Its just that ive always thought Fezzas like the 275 seemed really Astonish if you ask me...

Forgive me Ferrari, Theres only one other car that touches my heart other than Skylines, and thats the F40.

I love my Ferrari's i never ever talk down about them, but as of recently they are bringing out let down after let down.

Personally i think out of the modern Ferari's the Enzo should have been designed similar to the F40/50 and named the obvious name of F60, cause i bet you Enzo himself is spewing in his grave. (although i think its a great car in its own respects, nothing wrong with it at all, but to call it an Enzo???!)

Secondly out of the modern Ferrari's the F430 and the 612 Scaglliette (Forgive me if i spelt it wrong) should be the only ones allowed to see daylight. This new California is a mockery of the old prestigious Ferrari's that once were...

To be put quite simply this contraption (and i use the term lightly in this case since its Ferrari) reminds me of a Porsche Boxter/BMW Z4 from the side pic. A Toyota MR2 (current shape) from the front. And something that Volswagon would think about producing if they decided to bring out a new Beetle from the rear.

Not a fan of soft tops either, i think they take away from the essence of the cars framework.

Although im sure the performance better matches what you pay for. But at the end of the day i think Ferrari is going backwards with all their endeavours, I'd much rather a 35 GTR anyday over any of the current Ferrari's, i'd only take one for the Badge and saying i own a Ferrari, then again, Hand me a F40 or 50 and ill drop my house and everything i have to own that!

Sorry to all those that are fans of the '350 California' and love this car, its just my 2 cents and i think i had to say that, because as a Ferrari die hard fan myself, (i have everything Ferrari cept the car itself lol), i think i had to get this off my chest because Ferrari have been disapointing me time and time again with their developments, hopefully they get back on their horse (no pun intended) and start to give back Ferrari a decent name especially for their loyal customers that will spend anything to get one. :) don't flame me for this! like i said above, love Ferrari....just skeptical about their future as a prestigious car company and where they are heading. On a lighter note i hope they take the constructors championship in F1! :)

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
