Wtf is this?

2014 Ferrari F40 For Sale - 1014659 - duPont REGISTRY

 

It is a crime.

Although a very profitable one, probably.

 

If that's a crime, I wish I committed it!

 

No kidding, VIN in picture is hand scribed and doesn't match the printed advetisement. Weird

 

Wow. ! How can you resist the temptation until now to part with this gem, I'm sure somebody is going to love the opportunity to purchase a brand new car from nearly 30 years ago.

The only dilemma is do you buy it so that you are the first and only person to use it, or continue to keep it as it is like a piece of appreciating artwork.

 

FERRARI F40 | NEVER TITLED | COLLECTORS CAR | NEVER DRIVEN 1 MILE | Five Star Muscle Cars

 

No kidding, I would rather own a well used, well maintained one. And then proceed to drive it whenever the urge compelled me without worry of it's value when I put it back in the garage.

 

#4 of 12 made? What is this?

 

Much like the fake VIN in the ad. Why make up a VIN? This seems very 'odd'.

 

I buy 2

 

Yeah, how much for the one on the left?

 

For sale by an entity registered just 10 days ago.

 

S/n is 91436

The picture of the chassis# plate isn't very clear, but it seems 91436 to me.

 

Where there is smoke.

 

Stolen car or scam?

 

A car dealer from Singapore offered this car to me 3 weeks ago with the same pictures? Odd but probably true

 

so what is this thing?
- a completely new unused f40 that somebody put in a box 25 years ago?
- an f40 made from spare parts, but never really registered as a car?
- a fabrication/replica/fake bs etc?

 

Very low miles, real deal, based on those photos. When they were actually taken and where is another matter......

 

How can you legally call it a "2014"?

 

You can't, but maybe you can if it's this "super special edition" that comes with a fake VIN.

On another note: I wonder how many people know that it is VERY easy to get "free" miles on an F40. The odometer is easy to disconnect.

 

when it costs $14k to do a 500 mile journey in depreciation, I reckon a fair few people are doing it

 

Wonder if someone bought 12 cars new and are selling off this one and maybe others later. $4.8M would now be closer to $20M.

But $4.8M of a conservative stock (e.g, Apple) stock bought in 1990 would be $110M. That's a few GTOs.

 

So here we are, amongst the most knowledgable Ferrari people that we know, and nobody really knows definitively what this car is? I am surprised.

 

The #4 of 12 thing is BS at least from a Ferrari standpoint. The car is NOT a 2014 as can be seen from the photos supplied that it bears plates and information in common with other F40s. Without knowing the VIN it's difficult to say what it is, but what we do know is that it was posted with a fake VIN by a just registered user on that site. Just my 2 cents.
