One of the first "production" cars to break the 200 MPH barrier, the F40 looked every bit a supercar, especially when bathed in traditional Rosso Corsa red paint. Now 20 years old, this car shows you exactly how these cars were constructed. As an exceptionally well-kept example, the paint is still deep and vivid, and the panels are completely undamaged.

The engine was a state-of-the-art twin-turbo 2936cc V-8 mounted longitudinally, and featured double overhead cams, twin intercoolers, and electronic engine-management systems. Ferrari quoted 478 horsepower in a car that tipped the scales at under 3,000 pounds in U.S. trim, making for explosive performance.
At part throttle, the engine is smooth, with plenty of torque and excellent flexibility. It lugs effortlessly at 30 mph and cruises smoothly at 80. But when the pedal is aggressively depressed, the monster is released.

Like the 288 GTO that came before it, the Ferrari F40 has a tubular steel chassis but differed in its extensive use of carbon-fiber composites on the floorpan, dashboard, front bulkhead, and other areas. The body was also made of composite materials employed in Ferrari's Formula 1 program, in this case a Nomex, Kevlar, and carbon-fiber weave. Everything remains in factory-new condition, from the carbon fiber tub to the massive disc brakes, which, even in 1990, were devoid of any electronic assistance such as ABS. Tires are modern Pirelli P-Zeros in the original sizes.

The experience of driving a Ferrari F40 begins when you open the door, made of a lightweight composite material clad with only the minimum of an inner door panel. The dash and center console are covered in gray cloth. No glovebox or radio, and even the windows are manually operated. On the road, you can hear every pebble flung off the front tires into the undercarriage, a sound that is amplified by the composite panels devoid of usual sound deadening material.

This car is well-known and has had all service and maintenance procedures done at the correct time and mileage markers. All the original tools, books and manuals are included as well.
