    it might be me but, is that the ex-brunei f1? The one that used to be yellow, sold through SVAG and is now white with LM specs with crazy tint?

    Yes - the very same F1. Chassis number 014.

    In reality, only 2 F1s were originally painted white if we are talking about road cars. Chassis numbers 031 was "Special White" and 053 lists its color only as "White". Both cars remain white today with 031 in Japan and 053 last spotted in Hong Kong. There were quite a few GTRs that used white as their base color, but either way the figure in the video was not accurate. While many F1s have been refitted over the years, chassis 014 is the only one I am aware of that has been resprayed in white.

    For more photos and another video with the car, follow this link:

    BTW: This should probably have been posted in the Off Topic Cars section since it's not Ferrari related.

    I think the owner is one of 50 Cent's managers. I hear he's working towards an NWA reunion concert...

    I was wondering who Jack sold the car to! If it indeed went to McLaren Cars LTD. for a complete repaint and update, it had to cost at least $250k. The car needed a new A/C system and fuel bladder/tank as well as a few other minor things. Still a bargain at under $2m total cost if you ask me. If that kid can hang onto it and not destroy it or have it repossessed until he's 30, he can retire to Monaco on the proceeds of its sale. Best car to ever touch asphalt and will always be seriously sought after.
