Back in 1996, Ferrari celebrated its 50th anniversary with speed. The automaker created its highest-performing road car ever. Following in those same footsteps, Ferrari’s F50 is a culmination of the company’s racing pedigree and experience. Today, we look at a 1996 Ferrari F50, which is the 144th of 349 made. The F50 is powered by a 4.7-liter V12 that was created from the 3.5 V12 used in their F1 program in years previous.
The vehicle churns out 513 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque, which equates to a 0-60 mph time of just 3.6 seconds. The F50 you see in the images is a one-owner ride, and it comes perfectly maintained with only 4,491 miles. As with a classic, it also features all the documentation and service records you need, as well as the soft and hardtops and a “birth book” of the car’s production at the factory in Maranello.
Take a closer look at this iconic machine in the images and head over to RM Sotheby’s for more information. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more classic cars, new rides, and more auto news coming soon.
