The Ferrari F40 was discontinued in 1992.

In 1995 and 1996, in the BPR Global GT series, a team raced an F40 that they designated "GTE". It wasn't a factory Ferrari race car.

 

Yea, im surprised its even painted.

 

That M3 does almost nothing for me. The stock one looks better.

 

Not quite...

 

Just looked at the pic that the OP is talking about. Forgetting the BMW for a minute, which looks pretty good except for the exaggerated front end, I think the GT-R actually looks pretty sharp in white.

Way better than the silver car I'm so accustomed to seeing (and that I saw at the Indy auto show, to my surprise).

 

So the original poster has an ultra rare racing edition of a 1996 Ferrari F40 and he's a 21 year old student (according to his profile).

Not to mention he registered 5 years ago with the name FerrMaro - at 16 years old... so unless the "Ferr" means he wanted a Ferrari rather than had a Ferrari then this guy is either claiming his parents' car, or is the luckiest 16 year old ever.

I think we need some pics or an explanation.

By the way - I don't hate the BMW posted but I don't love it either. I'd sure as **** take it for an even trade for my 335i, though... overdone body kit or not.

 

Maybe he has a model of the F40

 

Thats what I was thinking. But I dont even know what the hell an F40 exactly is though

 

Eh, 96 wasnt that the F50?
F40 = 40 years of Ferrari
F50 = 50 years of Ferrari?

Anyway, no pulse problems here. Glad to see Ericcson got away from cell phones and went to cars I guess? Cool GTR right there in the one picture.

 

Next stop, my house.

 

The pulse is still working... but I cannot get excited by that car.

Over hyped thread IMHO.

 

See post #20.

 

LOL. You guys have asked more questions about my alleged Ferrari than the car I originally posted about. Jeez...If I had an F40 (a GTE in particular) do you really think I would post here? I have it on there because there was a thread in which everyone thought it would be funny to put crazy supercars in their sigs...It was a looong time ago though, and I just never took it off (wishful thinking I guess)

Soooo, back on topic. In regards to the Bangle design post: I almost jumped off a cliff when I saw the first new 7 series too. I was devastated by the direction Chris was taking BMW.But I have to admit that after reading some articles on Mr. Bangle's theories of auto design, my ideas of what looks good have changed a bit. And I think that we can all admit that this new E92 is a quantum leap in the right direction as far as "Bangle design" goes. Don't get it twisted, I love the old school looks of yore (an '02 M5 is one of my dream cars), but has anyone seen an new 5 series with the M sport package????

 

I like the exhaust

 

I still prefer the older style trunk with the CSL lid...
