Buy an F40 with a clean title, and then pick out a Yenko, Baldwin, Nickey, etc., of your choice,pay for 1 year of insurance on both, AND get a couple of drums of Sunoco 110 put in the corner of your garage with a drum pump.
Why? 'Cause it will be the same money as the Enzo project - and that car will never be the same! |

The Ferrari world is quite different than the muscle car world. Not two weeks ago I was at the track in Palm Beach and saw a beautiful 360 Spider that hit a wall and had it's side bashed in. There was also a guy racing his 12 million dollar (give or take a couple million) 62' Ferrari 250 GTO around the track. Talk about balls! (The GTO did not receive a scratch that day!)
When I asked a guy at Lime Rock who was racing his 4 million dollar Alfa Romeo at the track and winning the class if he was nervous his reply was the car was built to be raced. I think that is the mentality of the true Ferrari enthusiast. Use it.. if it breaks... have it fixed or rebuilt. I am amazed at the restorations done to complete basket case cars. Symbolic Motorcars in California had a 50's racing Ferrari that was purchased for 800k for a pile of parts and completely restored. You should have seen what they had to work with... not recognizable as a car. I read somewhere that almost every Ferrari ever built is on the road. I am sure there are some that have been destroyed but most Ferrari's are rebuit. Now the cars I mentioned above were classic cars with racing history (except the 360 Spider). I am curious to know how the value of this car will be affected. But do remember that this is an extremely low production super car. Oh, you should hear the sound of this cars engine.... damn....

I was told yesterday that if the frame is not bent it can be sent back to Farrari for repair. Otherwise there are elite shops that can repair it to like new status. The title will still say "wrecked". However, if you have the proper documentation to confirm that it was repaired properly wrecked may not matter that much. After all, think of how many old muscle cars were, though possibly not wrecked, nontheless basket cases at one time. Who cares now??
