In this episode of JR Garage, the team unveils their latest acquisition - a 2012 Ferrari California, purchased for a steal at $63,000. This sleek replacement for their burnt Ferrari FF comes with its fair share of issues, from dry rotting tires to sticky buttons and a broken window switch. Despite these setbacks, the team remains optimistic about the potential of their new ride.
The California's interior, though missing floor mats and plagued by sticky buttons, exudes that unmistakable Ferrari charm. With a high mileage of 50,000 miles, the engine purrs to life smoothly, hinting at the car's reliability despite its age. However, a concerning flaw emerges as the roof fails to retract, casting a shadow of doubt over the otherwise promising purchase.
As the team contemplates the future of their car collection, thoughts of parting ways with their Porsche Boxster linger. Yet, the allure of the Ferrari California's potential keeps them intrigued. With plans to address maintenance issues and possibly keep the California long-term, JR Garage sets out on a new automotive adventure, navigating the highs and lows of their latest acquisition with trademark enthusiasm and determination.
