Well then, Im NOT interested in owning Ferrari F50 if I cannot get a factory red/tan. One for sale in Aus for US$1.1M An Aussie Fchatters F50 and its a beauty too! http://www.maranellomotorsport.com.au/track_inventory.html
Euro car; and while there is nothing wrong IMO with a euro car, they do sell for less for some reason. Lower demand I suppose.
Hey, Mike! How are you? I hope all is well. Unfortunately, I can't disclose the s/n of the F50 that recently sold. But the info is good, I promise. The sale was recent; so recent in fact that the new owner hasn't yet taken delivery of the car. That's a Euro Enzo, 128786, located at Emporio Motor Group in New Jersey. I called and e-mailed them about the car when an acquaintance was interested in a black Enzo. They never got back to me; found the acquaintance a different once. I'm not sure why that car is here in the U.S.; good luck getting them to get back to you. LOL! Pap, isn't your 348's interior black? What makes you think that this is the ex-Swaters car? This is the same car that Jason Thorgalsen (Speedracer38) saw on Hawaiian plates in December 2008. But in September of '08 and May of '09, s/n 99999 was spotted at the Galleria Ferrari in Italy. Then I saw it here in California in September and now it's for sale. Definitely two different cars, but I don't know if there's any way to tell which one is the ex-Swaters car.
Aside from the ex-Swaters car, which is the other "definite" 99999? Just curious origins/provenance, is all.
Well, the one for sale identified in this thread is s/n 99999; and the one that's currently on display at the Galleria Ferrari is also s/n 99999. Which one is the ex-Swaters car is beyond me. LOL!
Suggest to double check the key lock numbers and then you will find out which car is which. Marcel Massini
Guys, you better do your homework. Remember Suleyman Abusaidovich Kerimov's near fatal crash in Nice, France, 25 November 2006? Has it been totally reconstructed since then? Marcel Massini
Marcel, this car has been seen several times since Suleyman's near-fatal wreck. Either it was rebuilt, or Suleyman crashed in an Enzo to whose serial number we are not privy. Where can I find the key lock on an F50? Is it written in the warranty booklet? Or is physically somewhere on the car?
Carbon, F50 s/n 99999 from the Galleria wears key lock number 212. Marcel, we were apparently wrong with the black Enzo crashed in Nice being 128786. I have still no idea which is the number of the crashed one. Olivier
The one for sale in this thread is the ex-Swaters car, and displayed by the factory as well, per docs. Any knowledge of the origins of the current Galleria F50, pre-Galleria?
The F50 at the galleria is not in good conditions... Little scratch on it, both front light plexi are broken and the interior is under an amazing and massive dust.
I came across a BEAUTIFUL Ferrari F50 lurking in the shadows this weekend, but unfortunately it did not have a 99999 chassis number! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I was VERY fortunate to have a look at 360C's Giallo F50 in Melbourne last year. What a wonderful machine that!!!! Has to be one of the best around!! He is SO anal about his cars, they have to be better than new! Such a shame the car was having some repairs done, we could not start it to hear that beautiful V12 growl.

Ex-David Walters. I just love these auction company descriptions: "Ferrari F50 Show Car, the very first F50 built and the last Ferrari to have a five-digit chassis number, s/n 99999".
Estimate is $600-$800k "...and a well-known 1995 Ferrari F50 Show Car ($600,000 - $800,000), the very first F50 built and the last Ferrari to have a five-digit chassis number, s/n 99999.
