This is freaking awsome!!!

"Built originally for the FIA GT1 in 1996, the bodywork was made from scratch in carbon with a reinforced chassis and full FIA specification roll cage. In 2001 the car was fitted with a Ferrari V12 based on the engine in the 550 Maranello. In 2005 we fitted the Hewland 6 speed sequential gearbox and further refined the chassis. It is an incredibly stiff car which is more akin to a Group C car in performance than a GT car. It is very, very fast indeed.

The car weighs 1075kgs with engine power at 550bhp. The front wheels are a large 11x18” size while the rears are a staggering 12.5x18”. The suspension includes custom wishbones, anti-rollbars and a flat bottom all made in house by us"

Since the F40 is my favourite car every built, and is the greatest car on the planet, and now having had the priviledge of driving one 2 weeks ago on a local cricuit. The fact that this is lighter, more powerfuld and better handling, i sooo want a drive. Mind you, I am no sure if removing the soul (3.0ltr TT V8) and replacing it with a V12 is good or bad. Some things should be left as is

the F40 is one of my favorite cars ever. I like the 2nd F40 better but both are still badass
