Although this is a highly debatable question, few automoti- ve enthusiasts will disagree when it comes to the Ferrari F40. This thoroughbred from Ma- ranello's finest stable incorporates everything needed to be a true 'supercar', and more. Built to celebrate the marque's 40th anniversary, the F40 was a development of the 288 GTO. Whereas the GTO's looks are understated, the F40's curvaceous body and huge re- ar wing just scream performance. Penned by Pininfarina, the F40 shares some design e- lements with the 288 GTO Evoluzione race car. ____________________________________________________ This car is offered exclusively through Jan B.

The chassis consists of a composite central section with steel tubular space frames on either end to support the suspension. This setup offers a good balance between light weight and rigidity. Suspension is by double wishbones all- round, helped by coil springs over dampers and an anti-roll bar fore and aft. ____________________________________________________ This car is offered exclusively through Jan B.

Unlike most other Ferraris, which are powered by a high revving V12 engine, the F40 uses a V8. Like the manufacturer's contemporary Formula 1 engines, the V8 is fitted with two Turbochargers and intercoolers. The three litre engine was rated at 478 bhp, which was well within the chassis' 600 - 650 bhp limit. The complete package combined stunning looks and tarmac ripping performance, which could very well be considered the essential ingredients for being a supercar. The lack of creature comforts and practicality ads to the 'perfect mix.' Driving a F40 requires a very strong left foot and a very careful right foot. At the time of the F40's launch there was just one real competitor, the Porsche 959. E- quipped with a heavy all wheel drive system, the Porsche was let down by a much higher kerb weight. For many years the F40's performance remained unmatched. Ferrari intended to produce less than 950 examples, but to match the 3100 potential orders, just over 1300 were eventually built. The spartan F40 was basically a road legal racer, so it came as no surprise that Ferrari customers were interested in racing the F40 in GT-races. For this pur- pose Michelotto modified a number of F40s, which were raced with considerable success, long after the road car's production had halted. Dubbed F40 LM and F40 GTE, these ra- cers were fitted with a 700 bhp version of the V8. Today, the F40 still ranks high on many enthusiasts' favourite car list. With 1315 examples it is not as rare as Ferrari's other 'supercars' and is common sight on many Ferrari events, where its unique looks still makes fans' hearts beat faster. It is pictured here at Ferrari e- vents and auctions all over Europe. Specific history of this car: Delivered in December 1989 via the Garage Francorchamps in Brussels, this F40 is one of the few very desirable cars with the standard non-adjustable suspension and with sliding ____________________________________________________ This car is offered exclusively through Jan B.

Still until today there are only two owners registe- red in the original, German registration papers (Fahrzeugbrief). The car is now presented in extremely original and exeptional condition throughout. With a total mileage of only 8.500 kms it still has its first paint and is free of any accident damage. 83619 is presented with fully matching numbers as well as a complete service history which included the replacement of the fuel cells as well as the timing belts. This F40 is one of the very few cars which also comes with a full Ferrari Classiche certificate as well as the service books! Offered here is a real juwel for any serious Ferrari collector, only very rarely does one find such an original and well documented Ferrari F40 for sale.

That is, when the vertical lines (which contrary to its purpose) dominated at its debut, it was ugly, and people kept buying horses. Cars were known as "horseless carriages." The necessity of speed lowered and elongated the car so that the horizontal lines, balanced by the curves, dominated: it became a perfect whole, logically organized for its purpose, and it was beautiful. —Fernand Leger "Aesthetics of the Machine: The Manufactured Object, The Artisan, and the Artist," 1924 M Migh-performance sports and racing cars represent some of the ultimate achievements of one of the world's largest industries. Few objects inspire such longing and acute fascination. As the French critic and theorist Roland Barthes observed, "I think that cars today are almost the exact equiv alent of the great Gothic cathedrals: I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object." Unlike most machines, which often seem to have an antagonistic relationship with people, these are intentionally designed for improved handling, and the refinement of the association between man and machine.

  • 30Th Anniversary of the F40 Maranello, 21 July 2017
    30 th anniversary of the F40 Maranello, 21 July 2017 - Thirty years have passed since the official presentation of the F40, which took place on 21 July 1987 at the Civic Centre in Maranello, now home to the Ferrari Museum. Created to celebrate the company's 40th anniversary, it was the last car to carry the founder's "signature". It was a definitive car, the ultimate expression of the technology thus far developed by the Prancing Horse, but at the same time it went back to Ferrari’s roots when racing cars were also road vehicles. An extreme derivation of the 308 GTB and of the 288 GTO Evoluzione prototype, the Ferrari F40 is a masterpiece of engineering and style, which entered the collective imagination as a symbol of an era. On the anniversary of the launch of this motoring legend, Ferrari has gathered together the memories of three of its creators: Ermanno Bonfiglioli, then Head of Special Projects, Leonardo Fioravanti, a designer for Pininfarina, and test driver Dario Benuzzi. Ermanno Bonfigl ioli, who as Head of Special Projects was responsible for supercharged engines, has not forgotten the excitement of that 21 July: "I have never experienced a presentation like that of the F40. When the car was unveiled, a buzz passed through the room followed by thunderous applause. No one, except for close associates of Enzo Ferrari, had yet seen it. Indeed, the company had cloaked the development and testing of that car in unusual secrecy. And the surprise at such a stylistic leap was almost shock. The timeframe was also unusual, within the very short arc of 13 months, the chassis and bodywork moving ahead quickly and at the same pace as the powertrain.
