    Great video! I never knew how much better the F50 looked while on the road. Was this the same one at C&C a week or two ago?

    Wow, I have a newfound respect for the F50. Looks much better in motion, plus it pulled on the Lambo... YEAH!

    Awesome! Love the sound of the F50. Glad to see it pulling away from the Murcielago so easily

    I think the F50 accelerates about the same as a new Z06. Is the lambo slower than that? If not, the F50 was probably in the better gear at the time or the lambo driver wasn't trying to keep up.

    I feel like an F50 would pull on a Z06. And I am coming to Cali just to see this car! and hear it!

    great video

    loved the stormy overcast towards the middle-end of the video, coupled with the beautiful whistles of the lamborghini and super ferrari.

    Whether or not they really tried. the F50 looks like it would indeed pull on the Lambo.

    I was impressed!

    Thank you x1000000, there are not enough F50 videos out there. But every time I see one it just reconfirms my belief that it is the best looking and sounding car in history

    What a great video, I really enjoyed watching it.

    I know the F50 has a much smaller less powerful and older engine it does appear the F50 was pulling away from LP640. Would the F50 really have a chance?

    The note from F50 seems so much more glorious than that from the LP640, whats the secret?

    It's a naturally aspirated V-12 whose heritage comes directly from the 1990 Ferrari F1 race car (see other video in this section). The official 0-62 quoted time for the F50 is 3.7 seconds. I believe the 0-60 time for the LP640 is 3.5 seconds. I'm sure there are a number of other variables to consider but the LP640 owner did admit to having some difficulty keeping up with the F50 under rolling acceleration. As for the exhaust note it comes from a custom header back Tubi system. :)
