Myths out of the way it is time to talk about our methodology for creating this list. Technology, materials science and chassis design have all progressed to the point where a convertible Ferrari can match its coupe sibling pound for pound in the performance and fun stakes with none of the downsides. Sure, back in the day open top cars were dynamically flawed but in the last decade, we can’t think of a single open top Ferrari that hasn’t been anything but astonishing to drive. The second myth about Ferrari convertibles is that they are compromised performance cars. Like my friend, if I had to choose between a Ferrari I get to drive every single day and one that stays locked in my garage most of the time, I’ll take the former every time. The California is more practical, has more space, more comfort and is gets used all the time. He had traded in his 458 for a California because he never drove the 458. The California I drove was a friend’s car. I recently drove a Ferrari California and while it is no 488 dynamically it was the perfect daily driver. First myth is that Ferrari convertibles are not real Ferraris. Should a 488 Spider outrank a 355 Spider? Sure, it is much faster and more advanced, but is it truly better? How do you rank cars that we are never going to ever drive like the 250 GT SWB California Spyder? Lots of tough choices make these lists a fiery affair.īefore we get into the list, we want to talk about a few myths that annoy us. The Ferrari lists we create are almost always controversial because any best of Ferrari models discussion is hard to have given the brands long history. Today we are ranking the best open top and convertible Ferraris ever made by our friends at Maranello.
