The most unusual Ferrari F40 – Findclassically FEATURETTE
Probably the most famous Ferrari in the world? The iconic design, the red color, the purist shapes of the 80s, the incomparable sound of the 2.9L V8 twin-turbo engine… The Ferrari F40 was launched in 1987, on the occasion of Ferrari’s 40th anniversary, and was the last vehicle to be personally approved by Enzo Ferrari.
