Ferrari California T Handling Speciale
Ferrari’s by nature are excellent handling machines. The company has decided to increase that connection between the car and driver on the California T with a Handling Speciale package. The package includes tuned magnetorheological dampers and revised spring rates (16 percent stiffer up front, 19 percent at the rear) and a new exhaust system. On the software side, shifts are faster in Sport mode, both in automatic and manual modes, thanks to recalibrated transmission logic. F1-Trac stability control system’s programming has also been toyed around to give better exit speeds on corners.
