F40
About This Car
The Ferrari F40 is not just a car — it is the last car personally approved by Enzo Ferrari before his death in 1988. Built to celebrate Ferrari's 40th anniversary, it was the first production car to break the 200 mph barrier. With a twin-turbocharged V8, a stripped-out racing interior, and bodywork made entirely of Kevlar and carbon fiber, the F40 was a road-legal race car in every sense. No ABS, no traction control, no power steering — just raw, unfiltered speed and the most iconic rear wing in automotive history.
History & Legacy

Unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 1987. Enzo Ferrari personally presented it — his last car before his death in 1988.
After 1,315 units, production ceases. The F40 becomes an instant legend and the last car personally approved by Enzo Ferrari.
As the last Enzo-era Ferrari, values begin climbing dramatically. Early examples that sold for $400K now fetch millions.
A pristine low-mileage example sells at auction for $3.1M, cementing its status as one of the most valuable modern Ferraris.
