    Indeed. Looking at launch press images and thinking about the F40, the timing of its production & its specification, you realize that this car was Lightning in a Bottle for Ferrari.

    To have the opportunity to go back in time & capture one in time-warp condition would have to be the ultimate.

    I don't drive her as often as I would like but when I do it's concentration followed by laughter Just an amazing car to drive.
