    Great track car and the price seems within current market values. I would imagine at least some of the 8K miles was on a track but it appears the car has been well maintained.

    Does anyone know the specs on these "LM Turbos"?

    It is certainly not a stock F-40; which is what i have. The F-40 is not much of a road car, upgrades or no upgrades, it is a disguised racing car, but I enjoy driving mine shorter distances and especially love the "woosh" turbo sound,and the power assicuated. I think if you are intent on buying a track car and are going to track it, this seems to have everything, bigger brakes included. Good luck. I love mine. Let us know if you do.

    Personally the F40 is one of my favorite cars. This is a really great price for what has been done to it. It is an excellent car.

    The mods seem like they were professionally done. I am sure that this car is a lot of fun....and with the cost of the additions factored in, it is a great price.

    I have driven this car and it is very smooth and very fast. These upgrades should be done to every F40.

    When this car was for sale in 2004, it was one of two that I was seriously considering getting (I ended up buying a different car also in NY).

    "If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up."

    The F40 is one of the cars a true tifosi must own at some time in his life.

    The car is off the "for sale" page (recently). Did you buy it? - Tim
