Saw a Ferrari F40 yesterday:)

Well, I was up in PA for work. Went to go visit my buddy at Villanova Law School and he mentions that there is a ferrari dealership right down the street from the school. So on the way out to get some dinner I tell him to swing by. Where I live I never see cars like this and I've always been huge on exotic cars. Small place in philly but what do I see at the front of the showroom, a Ferrari F40. Very awesome! Just wanted to share. There was also a daytona coupe, some F430s, a testarossa and I believe a 360 or two.

Where is that "This thread is worthless without pics" smiley go?

here is a link with a video of an F40.. Unfortunately I did not have my camera to take pictures.

YouTube - Ferrari F40 LM

Awesome. Is the F40 a new car from Ferrari or something?

Chipster · October 17th, 2006, 07:13 PM

No, they were made in the late 80s, and early 90s I believe. It was Ferrari's supercar before the F50 and then the Enzo...

Cool...thanks for info. F-40's are cool and expensive. I bet they cost at least 100,000.00

What does LM stand for in the video? I heard once it meant "Logistics Management" or something like that.

Haha costs at least 100,000.... you must be kidding yourself. You probably can't even buy a seat out of that car for $100,000.00 (joking). They and the F50's are still going for $400-800k depending on milage..... and that is if you can even find one.

My girlfriend's brother's neighbor has one with a VTEC.

F40's range from 300-400 and f50 from 500-700

I think Smackie may have been funnin' you.

**Doc** · October 18th, 2006, 09:01 AM

What a piece of shit. It looks just like a fiero with a body kit. Surely ferrari can do better than that.

I doubt those things go for much more than 60k.

My nissan 350z twin turbo would smoke that thing.

Don't forget the 288 GTO.

That car came stock with VEEEtech.

Well that was the supercar before the F40 right

I was never incredibly impressed with the F40. It did look much much better in person though. The main thing is just how rare. I live in eastern Virginia, I dont get to see too many cars like that.

Tanked · October 18th, 2006, 10:28 PM

I love the F-50. It is the only F-car I'd want to own....well maybe a F430 spyder too.

**Toby** · October 19th, 2006, 07:31 AM

I like the F-15 best.

Ha! Shows what you know! The F-15 still uses muffler bearings. POS

I saw a Lamborghini kit car yesterday. It was made out of a Volkswagen, but it looked really cool. Just thought I'd share.
