Today I stopped by Algar Ferrari, which is my local Ferrari dealer, and after talking cars with the salesman for a while he took me to the basement and they had two f40s! One was in pieces and the other was a reference vehicle. They also had an f50 that used to previously be the sultan of Bruneis and had less than 500 miles. The pictures aren't great bcuz they're from my potato phone. Oh and he told me he's almost certain that they will have a new lemans prototype coming out and he mentioned they're testing ones now with laferrari bodywork (sounded like the car from that video a month or so ago). It was a good day

That's damn awesome. It's pretty cool to see a dealer keep old gems around.

They were all customer cars actually, but it was still cool. The F40 in pieces used to be owned by some guy who wanted to hortrod it (god knows why) but never got around to it and passed away. The 2nd one was a customer a car they borrowed to serve as a reference put to put the other back together

I actually talked with the guy about a totaled F50. An F50 got stolen from them in the early 2000s and eventually the police found it but they wouldn't give it back because it was part of an ongoing investigation but then an FBI agent took it on a joyride and totaled it
