Nice little Ferrari F40 vid

Pity the commentary is in French, but cool to see the legend that is the F40 being hand built on the production line at Maranello

If you've turned the sound down for the commentary, turn it up for the on board track footage at the end

I soooo want one of these, it hurts

still the best supercar imo, awesome sound, allegedly a certain director of Newcastle United had one , he let the turbo's kick in in the wet whilst going round a roundabout , span it and smashed a wheel and damaged the suspension!!!!

I have had the absolute pleasure of a spin in one of these as a passenger - an absolutely brutal snarling monster of a supercar - it was an unbelievable experience!

You can keep your Veyrons, Koenigseggs, even Zondas for me and I'll take this everytime. I love today's super/hypercars immensely, but there's just something so brutal and primal about the F40 that does it for me, and whilst it's no longer at the top of the list for performance figures, I'd like to wager it still feels the fastest
