Description
Sonoma Classic Motorcars and our new world-wide brokerage Riviera MotorSports located in the Marina de Cascais Portugal is proud to present the 1988 Ferrari F40. The image posted in the advert is for representation purpose only. Images and supporting documents will be provided upon request.
Designed as the next flagship supercar after the 288 GTO, the F40 utilized an evolutionary version of the GTO’s chassis and double-wishbone suspension, as well as using the same 96-inch wheelbase. What was presented to the public in 1987 was an absolute no-compromise car that utilized a Pininfarina designed lightweight composite and aluminum body with IMSA-inspired widened fenders and an austere interior all in the name of saving weight. The engine was a 2. 9-liter twin turbo V-8 (again, descended from that used in the 288 GTO) that made 478 hp and propelled the car from 0-60 in 4 seconds in route to a top speed of just over 200 mph.
Ferrari built 1, 315 examples from 1987 to 1992, with approximately 211 U. S. spec cars coming stateside starting in early 1990.
the Ferrari F40 was a true expression of stripped-down, single-minded mission focus (anti-lock brakes weren’t even on the spec sheet) that proved to be the last car of its kind. As a result, the car’s depreciation curve didn’t last long, and collectors today seek these exceptional cars out no matter the price.
