    Anyone know how many black F50's were made if any? I'm starting a search for a possible new addition.

    Ideally would like a black/black/

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks

    Don't quote me on any of this but I think there are like 4 or 6 or something, not too many of them. Majority are in Europe too. Black F50 is my dream car, the best car you can possibly get imho so if you do get one then you will be my hero and you MUST post pictures, it's not an option :) Good luck!

    None were made in black. All F50s left the factory red. The only ones out there are repaints.

    I don't blame you for getting confused, I was sure that they came out in different colors but when I read your first post Mike I thought I must have been mistaken not you!

    If you buy that one, you can always drive back from Connecticut to Florida, and stop by Ohio on the way :)
    You might have a more successful search if you buy a red one and repaint it black - that's what somebody else on Fchat is thinking about doing (as in, he already bought a red one). I would think that the people who do have the black ones would want to hold on to them.

    Looks like it lives in Scarsdale. I now have a new background on my desktop....

    The repaint would be an option, but then I would need a black interior. Also as they made so few of them I do worry about a total repaing when spending 600+, give or take

    The car is actually located in CT. The car isn't for sale and I doubt any other black F50s are so like Webby said your best option would be buying a red one and repainting it black.

    Once you repaint an F50 you won't be able to see the carbon fiber weave through the paint.

    Your photo's of this one is awesome. I have time and can be patient, at least for the short term :)

    Everything is for sale, at what price TBD..... Unless it's yours, and you dont wish to let it go, at this moment....

    Seriously though, I would rather buy one not repaint it
