Buy the Ferrari F50 That Was the Literal Model for the Bedroom Posters
Buy the Ferrari F50 That Was the Literal Model for the Bedroom Posters-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:49

I’ve always had mixed feelings about the . I feel like it didn’t get the love it deserved because it was overshadowed by the F40 and the Enzo. But also it had a goofy face that I couldn’t quite take seriously. I didn’t have any bedroom posters of it (I was an Enzo fan), but if you did, then here’s your chance to buy the one that wound up on all the bedroom posters.

This particular F50, with a chassis number ending in 99999, is the last Ferrari to have a five-digit serial number and was Ferrari’s show car at many events, including at its official reveal at the Geneva Motor Show in 1995. According to its listing on , the car had been tested on Ferrari’s Fiorano test track and on the roads around Maranello by test drivers like Dario Benuzzi, Niki Lauda, Gerhard Berger and Jean Alesi.

It’s also been the subject of countless factory posters, press photos, stock photos and some lovely cutaway drawings by Shin Yoshikawa. So, if you grew up with F50s posters on your wall, chances are that they were of this car. That part is extremely cool.

As with other F50s, Chassis No. 99999 has a 4.7-liter, 60-valve, naturally aspirated V12 and a six-speed gated manual gearbox. It has only 1,400 miles on the clock.

You’ll have to reach out to Autosport Designs if you want to know how much it is, though, because pricing is on request. Keep in mind that this car went for nearly $1.7 million . That should help you gauge how much it is now.

The drops the 4.2-liter V8 for a 3.0 supercharged V6 with less power and a strange "T" badge. Is that the recipe for a sport sedan finally capable of besting arch-rival BMW and making our 2010 Best10? That "old" 4.2-liter V8 produced 340 HP and is still used in nearly...
