Equipment
Luggage, manuals, complete U.S. emissions, tools. Ferrari Classiche certified.
Condition
Essentially unused and pristine, even the usually frayed driver's seat back bolster. 1,312 miles from new, serviced earlier this year at Algar Ferrari including timing belt, tensioners and fuel pumps. Original and as-delivered throughout, including the factory-fitted tires and balance weights.
Market commentary
Instantly identifiable as the standard-setting supercar of its day, F40s appeal to a new generation of collectors. It is one of the cars that got hung on the dorm room walls of kids now in their peak earning years and has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity and value which this transaction reflects. The originality of this car -- not even a Tubi exhaust system -- is unusual and is matched by its recent service at Algar to give confidence it can be used, once the old tires are replaced, probably with a complete set of wheels and tires to preserve the originals. It is not exactly expensive, but brought all the money it could have.
