One of the world’s most fastest modified autos – 800 bhp Ferrari F50 supercar – was on sale at Auto Trader.
The super-rare Ferrari F50 was produced from 1995 - 1997 and came fitted with a 520bhp 4.7 – liter engine.
But this Ferrari F50 has been boosted to produce a massive 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 intercoolers to stop it from melting.
And this engine work has meant the drop-top Ferrari – widely considered to be the finest car Ferrari has ever built – can accelerate from 0-60mph in just 3 seconds.
This makes it nearly a second faster than the standard F50 and a half second faster than the Ferrari Enzo.
The car’s 800bhp makes it more powerful than the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren and Porsche Carrera GT, and puts it right up there with the 806bhp Koenigsegg CCX.
The modified F50 also features upgraded brakes, suspension, and 3-piece ‘BBS’ style alloy wheels, while the interior has been stripped to reduce weight and improve handling and acceleration.
It was built to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary and just 349 models were built.
Ferrari spokesperson Antonio Ghini once said: “Ferraris are something cultural, a monument.
“They must be hard to find, so we will produce one less than the market.”
