Description

Ferrari F40 (1987)The F40 was to be a celebration of forty years of Ferrari. The companys first supercar, although heavily influenced by the extreme machine philosophy of the 288 GTO, was never intended for a life on the racetrack. That is not to say, however, that it was lacking in purpose: its sophisticated high performance, turbo charged running gear combined with a first class chassis gave it the kind of great dynamic prowess that was close to that of a racing car.

The F40 was to be a celebration of forty years of Ferrari. The company’s first supercar, although heavily influenced by the extreme machine philosophy of the 288 GTO, was never intended for a life on the racetrack. That is not to say, however, that it was lacking in purpose: its sophisticated high-performance, turbo-charged running gear combined with a first class chassis gave it the kind of great dynamic prowess that was close to that of a racing car. As the celebrated magazine Road & Track wrote, ‘The F40 may be one of the most single-minded road cars ever constructed’.

Mere months before his passing, a frail Enzo Ferrari announced from a podium at Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, Italy, a car that would change the world. That car, the F40, signalled the end of an era, both for the Ferrari brand and for performance cars in general. It was a demanding, Spartan supercar— “not particularly comfortable” even by the company’s own description. The F40 was designed expressly to be the fastest, sharpest, most aggressive Ferrari road car, ever. And it was about as close as you could get to a race car that had snuck out of the paddock and somehow gotten approved for road use.

In a way, the car had done just that. The F40’s roots are found in the 288 GTO Evoluzione, the rocket that Ferrari had been developing to do battle in the road-racing portion of the fabled Group B category of FIA-sanctioned racing. Rallying accidents killed the entire category before the Evoluzione could strut its stuff, leaving Ferrari with the decision about what to do with all the time, money, and remarkable engineering that had gone into the project. The answer came in the form of a German rival, caught in the same predicament.

Porsche had also been developing a Group B monster and was forced to turn that project into a road car. Known first as Gruppe B concept, that car eventually became the astonishingly fast and technologically advanced 959. Ferrari noticed the headlines and accolades the 959 drew and began to think his aborted Group B car could do the same. “This is a great car, we have to make it,” said Ferrari test driver Marco Toni of the Evoluzione. That was all that Enzo needed to hear. He tapped Nicola Materazzi, father of the 288 GTO and its Evoluzione counterpart, to build the road car. It would be the last road car that Enzo Ferrari personally approved.

The F40 debuted in 1987 and stunned evaluators with its blistering performance. A Road & Track test in October 1991 showed that the 478hp F40 could hit 60mph from a standstill in just 3.8 seconds and dispatch the quarter mile in 11.8 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 196 mph.

The Ferrari packed advanced engineering into its 2450mm wheelbase, including a twin-turbo V8 power unit and a lightweight Kevlar and carbon composite body. And yet, it was not a spaceship like the 959. If the Porsche was a glimpse into the technology-laden future, the F40 was heralded as the most distilled, most satisfying version of the old ways of doing things. It had none of the electronic nannies now standard in every modern performance car. It did not use trick engine mapping and traction control to augment lap times. No power steering, power brakes or ABS to reassure the driver. Weight was kept to a minimum: the composite body panels were built for strength and low weight; Lexan-clothed windscreen was used instead of glass; and the interior was sparse to say the least, with no sound system, glove compartment or elaborate trims or upholstery. The F40 demanded the utmost attention and focus. Give it that, though, and it would give back the best driving experience of any car on the road at the time and most of them since. For Enzo, who died in 1988, it was a fitting final act, and it pointed to a future in which his company would, even after his passing, be at the forefront of ultra-high-performance road cars. Only 1311 examples were produced.

The European specification model edition is a perfect replica of the car as unveiled to celebrate Ferrari's 40th anniversary in 1987. The US specification incorporates all of the changes made to suit the car to the American market, and can be mostly identified externally by a deep black rubber chin spoiler, as well a tow hook hidden in the black mesh of the radiator intake and side markers ahead of the front and behind the rear wheel arches. US-spec F40s have a distinguished rear fascia, without fog lights and with a high mount stop light, whilst Ferrari had to reinforce its chassis with new bumper mountings and side protection bars among other structures added to the space frame. Inside, whilst the European cars had racing shells with three-point seat belts, the American cars had sport seats with automatic seat belts. One concession was made to creature comfort, as air conditioning was fitted as standard. Bespoke models can also be commissioned for owners of the real car.

These fine 1:8 scale models of the Ferrari F40 have been handcrafted and finished in our workshops with the co-operation and assistance of Ferrari regarding original finishes, materials, archive imagery and drawings. The use of supremely accurate digital scanning of the original car has allowed us to perfectly recreate every detail at scale. Furthermore, it has undergone detailed scrutiny by both engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation.

The Ferrari F40 is limited to just 199 pieces.

Great for adults who need full liquid diets!
Flavor Name: Turkey Bolognese with Bone Broth, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don't really write very many reviews, but I am an adult with gastroparesis and these pouches are amazing!! I've been dealing with GP for over 15 years and I wish I'd known about these sooner. When I am in a bad flare, sometimes all I can keep down is liquids and baby food. These are so gentle on my stomach, and leave me feeling truly nourished, unlike so many of the mainstream baby foods that are clearly low quality meat or very sugar laden. I try to make my own soups and liquids from a Paleo mindset, but sometimes when you're really sick, you don't have the energy to even put something in the blender. These are amazing for those times and will be a staple in my arsenal from now on.
