f40 at canepa design

does anybody know the history of the f40 for sale at canepa design ? also what do people think that car is worth today ? thanks in advance.

 

if its sorted, etc...400 wld be a great buy, 500 fair, 600 wld be a great sell.

this one didnt come across when i was doing my search so unfort i cant add much wrt that.

 

It doesn't seem bad.... I mean minus the large stereo and cut up carbon firber panels for speakers. Why do people do this???

 

Didn't even notice that mod. Will be a small fortune to revert to stock!

 

yeah that would be total deal breaker for me.

 

Is that Rod Stewarts car? If I recall he did the same things to his.

 

Stewart's F40 was 86746, the 60th car built, a 1990 car.

Canepa's F40 is 87821, the 113th car built, a 1991 car.

 

I think this was R Kelley's Car. Sold new in Olympia Fields, Ill (my friend was his neighbor at the time). Either way it was most likely somebody into music- hence the big stereo.

 

Are you referring to the "alledged" pedophile? I didn't know he ever owned any Ferraris.

 

Yep, that's him. I think he "peed on a 14 year old girl" or something like that. In accordance with his bad taste goes with butchering a carbon fiber interior..... maybe????

 

Jay:

The ownership trail as it relates to F40 87821 that I have on file does not include the aforementioned 'R Kelly'. Do you have something definitive that links him to this F40 in any way?

 

FWIW, F-Chat's own user "K-Diddy" did the stereo work on Rod's F40 (and took a wild ride or two as well); you can ping him for the scope of work if you're interested.

 

I have learned some things not about this car but about Canepa design and you could not pay me enough money to buy a car from him. I suggest everybody be VERY careful.

 

Sorry to hear that...

 

yes I am sorry as well. I am choosing for now not to expose exactly what he did but I say again before anybody buys a car from him be very careful. I would not buy a garbage can from him again.

 

NYC,

You wouldn't be in the same business as him, would you??

 

There is a interesting thread about his reason in the porsche section.

 

NYC is not in the car business, if that was a serious question. not even close.

 

Just read the porsche thread....i am really surprised...i met bruce back in 07 and this is unexpected.

 

NYC has integrity and a clear cut case. I for one, appreciate the heads up from a friend and enthusiast looking out for others.
