One of the world’s fastest modified sportscars is on sale at Trader – an 800bhp Ferrari F50 supercar.
The incredibly rare Ferrari F50 was made in the mid 1990s and came standard with a 520bhp 4.7-litre engine.
But this Ferrari F50 has been boosted to produce a whopping 800bhp – making it one of the fastest cars in the world.
The convertible F50’s trademark V12 engine has had two turbochargers with adjustable boost pressures bolted on, and is fitted with an upgraded exhaust, electrics and inter-coolers to stop it from melting. And this engine work has meant the drop-top Ferrari – widely considered to be the finest driver’s Ferrari ever built – can accelerate from 0-60mph in just 3 seconds. This makes it nearly a second faster than the standard F50 and half a second faster than the Ferrari Enzo. And the car’s 800bhp makes it more powerful than Paris Hilton's Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren and Porsche Carrera GT, and puts it on a par with the 806bhp Koenigsegg CCX. The Ferrari F50 was built to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary, and just 349 models were built between 1995 and 1997. Apparently the company just announced that in order to maintain the ferrari brand's exclusivity, it will produce one less car this year! Or maybe they're just using that as an excuse to cover up the drop in sales due to a recession! If you're wealthy enough, you can pick up this sweet Ferrari for a whopping $800,000. But if you're like rest of us poor people, you'll have to make do with cheap Ferrari Clothing!
