VIDEO: A History of the Ferrari F40
The video below chronicles the creation of the Ferrari F40, which, in opinion of the connosers, remains the greatest of the supercars even now, almost twenty years after its introduction (time flies, eh?). From the 288 GTO Evoluzione, which ultimately became a rolling laboratory for the F40′s future mechanicals, to the car’s introduction in 1987, to the F40LM GT-class racers of the 90s, the video covers it all. Yes, the F50 is impressive, and the Enzo is a performance revelation, but given the choice, I’d take the F40 every single time. Its race-inspired design is still fresh-looking today, and when it’s in the same room as any of its successors, it is the F40 that has a tractor-beam-like pull. It’s the last great Ferrari overseen by Enzo himself. Yes, the F40 is special in every sort of way.
