It's not the VIN. It's not in the right format and t's longer than the 17-character VIN anyway. It's likely a place holder number they use for...
Not that I care for this Mercedes but no, it's not a dust-off target for the SF90 XX Stradale. It did a sub 6:30 (!!!) lap at the Nordschleife....
The minimum tightening torque, which certainly should at least be in the F40 service manual, if not the owner's manual, is 65 Kgm, which is...
In Europe, it’s 3.5M Euro, VAT included. In the USA, it’s 3.75M USD before state and local taxes, and at the current tariffs. In California, for...
No, it's not like that: the picture is quite misleading as it only shows half of what's in the engine bay. In reality, it's what you'd normally...
Well, bench racing doesn't have to be entirely useless if one uses first-hand real-life data and rational extrapolation. Based on a currently...
Correct. It's not so much power-to-weight. Even a "lowly" 296 GT3 will run circles around a Koenigsegg One:1 or Jesko Attack on a racetrack. As...
I'm tired of many things, but not necessarily this. This aspect (no guarantee of final pricing) is common across manufacturers when it comes to...
The final price of the car is not guaranteed and is subject to change at any time prior to delivery.

I wish to point out a few things in your unpacking: They have gotten [some] money as of this writing. That's not the case. The...
The overall driving experience of the 499P, including the noise, is actually quite exciting and visceral. Of course, one can be fixated on just...
There are also things like drive shafts, suspension bushings, fuel tank overhaul, high-voltage battery overhaul, other random wear and tear, and...
More than double: yes, easily. However, we don't yet know how much more because the car hasn't yet existed long enough for all the costs to be...
As with the previous XX cars, it would be an adaptation of the road car for the track and not a derivation from the 499P Modificata, which is a...
I couldn't possibly agree more. Any money not "invested" in such cars could be made to grow much more significantly otherwise. Always. And with...
In the case of Formula 1 engines, V10 has the edge over V12 for glorious sound. They are both heavenly, just that V10 is a bit more so. Having...
The program (programme) for the 499P Modificata is called Sport Prototipi Clienti. HyperClub is something completely different: it's for watching...
F80: Ferrari’s quoted time. 499P: Some clients and their associates have driven the 499P Modificata on Fiorano. The delta between the Modificata...
I wasn’t speculating. ;-)
