A Ferrari F40 with genuine racing pedigree is up for grabs.
This car—chassis number 80782—left the Ferrari factory as a road car in November 1989, and was shipped to Kroymans BV, the official Ferrari importer for the Netherlands, according to the auction listing. It was converted into a race car three years later by Peter van Erp of Cavallino Tuning, the racing arm of Kroymans BV.
This marked the beginning of a competition career that would last until 2009, with the F40 steadily accumulating more modifications throughout. That started with Intracks racing shocks, Stack instruments, new brakes, and some changes to the bodywork. A roll hoop and air jacks were added in 1995. The twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-8 engine was initially left stock, but at some point it got upgraded. The listing claims it now produces between 700 and 1,000 hp , a big step up from the stock 471 hp. Even the stock rating was enough to get the stock F40 to 200 mph—making it the world's fastest production car
