    Any F50's in SoCal? I would love to see one! Never have.

    I would expect there to be a few in LA at least.

    There are several. But as with all rare cars that are rarely used, the chances of seeing one on the road are slim.

    Hm. The ones I know appear to enjoy partners who share the car hobby so I don't think they are available. I'm afraid the chances of finding an lady who owns a Ferrari Supercar could be even slimmer than the chances of seeing an F50 on the road!

    I'm thinking of getting an F50. Any advice on what to look for / how much I should be paying / any good cars out there at the moment?

    Do they go over speed bumps in the UK?

    Any idea how high the lift system lifts the car at the front spoiler? (I have a kerb going into my drive I would need to clear)

    Thanks

    Here in the UK you could get into an F50 for £400k I reckon but pay up to £450k for a really good one.

    Thanks, who has the 14.7km car?

    I'm aware Joe Macari has one but it's black

    Anyone know if they go over speed bumps?

    That Macari car has been repainted and messed around with I think although I have not seen it myself so could be wrong. As long as the lifting system is working they should clear speed bumps no problem.

    Yes - the cover and the roll hoops come off and then the hard top gets fitted in its place.
