    I agree. And one that looks even better in the flesh. The day I went to buy my F40 I stood transfixed by an F50 for so long I think the salesman though I was having some kind of medical issue!

    Don't know if these are stock wheels, I only saw once golden wheels on a F50.

    In certain lights the F50 headlight covers look weirdly distorted are they plastic or glass?

    Unlike the F40's which are glass, they are smoothly-formed Lexan™.

    The colored distortion of light you see from certain angles is caused by the refraction of light, you see the same thing happening with the engine covers of both the F40 & F50

    The first F50 is US-spec or converted? Seems kind of odd if the latter; being the 1st one, as original as possible would be the ultimate goal, imo.

    Depends on mileage, condition, history, provenance etc, we sold 4 last year all in the $2ms, from $2.25m to $2.75m

    Seems like We Are Curated bought and already sold the 5k mile black USA F50.

    From John's IG: Arguably one of the most exciting cars we have discovered and purchased. One of the last Original Owner USA Ferrari F50 examples in existence. Less than 5,000 miles. It’s an honor to be part of this cars history. Sold!
