    Another celebration of 30 years of the F50.

    Interesting stories (making an F1 car for the road, variants 333 SP & F50 GT, owner’s views, values, comparison to F40).

    Is this tire a new design / compound? Will the design (less the 'legacy tour' script) be available to owners who didn't participate in the legacy tour?

    Yes I believe it was commissioned by Ferrari to replace the old Goodyear Fiorano tyres, so owners can continue to use the cars on newer rubber, and those who paid to go on the tour received a set as part of their care package………. I mentioned last year in this thread possibly, about the F50 owners and specialists should club together to do a run of new tyres but someone provided info regarding the new tyre in development

    Of course one is free to like non-original exhausts which are loud and brash as straight pipes (irrespective of which brand they are).

    I, personally, prefer the original system which allows the true and much more authentic mechanical engine sound (chains, valves…) to harmoniously and more angrily, complement this auditory delight with the sensory vibration resulting from the direct engine-tub mating (again mainly from the inside).

    When Maranello UK asked me to have one of my F50s for Goodwood and I politely declined, I didn’t think that it will be replaced by a fake-painted car with fake exhausts…

    Never and nothing is better than original. I agree 100%.
