As the happy owner of a 991 GT3 4.0, I am a true porsche fan as much as you are. However, the F40 has always left me speechless. It obviously takes big ones to get the best out of it. Intimidating in every sense. Your sincere humility at the wheel of this iconic car is very appreciated.

@@carswithluke. As an Italian, I have to say that in this case that hand gesture (🤌) is not really appropriate. 😉 Although of course I know that many people abroad do it simply as a “classic Italian hand gesture”. But they always do it in the wrong situation, simply to imitate an Italian, but where no Italian would ever do it. This hand gesture has a specific meaning, as do many other gestures that we Italians make with our hands. That hand gesture means something like.... “But… what do you want ?!” 🤌 (ma cosa vuoi ?! 🤌).

[@keatingaaron]

Your friend is generous and trusting. Lovely scenery with the beauty of the F40 set against the glorious Alps.

[@jordyvanderpers3787]

What a special car! The sounds it makes, the exhaust, the turbo and blow-off valve is just amazing! 😍

[@milk-it]

Similarly, I’m also a huge 911 fan. But the F40 was always reserved a special place in my heart. The wind-up windows were an optional extra for those who didn’t want the standard plexi-glass sliding windows. The spartan cockpit which generates a cacophony at speed, and the relief of shifting gears smoothly at the precise RPM and road speed with Ferrari’s quintessential ‘tink’ make the F40 a pure driver’s car. Only the ‘73 RS, 993 RS and 997 RS 4.0 can deliver a similar experience in the Porsche lineup. The F40 is such a masterpiece.

[@ROspook]

I think this is the dream for many car enthusiasts! Well done, you're lucky and you've probably earned it!

I salute your honest display of humility towards this intimidating machine. It needs a special road and a mindset to match. For the full send, I recommend Davide Cironi"s video on the F40. It's the most visceral review so far on KZbin.

[@DJS4000]

What an awesome car. Thank you Luke! Also, here's an interesting tidbit: compared to modern cars, the F40 is quite compact. In fact, the GR Yaris has a _longer_ wheelbase, by about 10cm.

[@carswithluke]

Yes crazy to think! Modern cars for sure got big and wide

Oh wow. The contrast between propelling this car at creeping speeds with tight corners and reversing, versus how it comes alive when the environment around the car opens up is just staggering. Heavy becomes light, difficult becomes easy, constraint becomes potential.

[@911aircooled5]

I'm a Porsche nut and owned for 34 years, back to the 80's when I had a choice of what to buy. Only one Ferrari ever made it to my wall or diecast collection, the F40. Perfection!!

[@MarcSob22]

An interesting fact that few people know due to the prohibition of Ferrari itself, the first units of the F40 manufactured in 1987, "they say between 20 to 25 units" have the same power +650hp and almost the same weight as the 288 GTO EVO "less than 1100kg with fluids " for not being within the new traffic rules of the time, making the maximum speed stay above 360km/h and the acceleration stay in the house of 3s exactly in the 0-100km/h! What machine!! Will always be the best, great content mate!!

Never heard of you before, but saw the f40 and had to watch. Fair play i enjoyed the video. Lucky to drive that. I remember a load of us diverting off the m4 on way home once as someone mentioned there was a f40 in the Dick Lovett in Cardiff . 8 bmxers stood there drooling as the security guard looked on. I dont think we would have gone out of the way for any other car

[@that_kouki_26]

Awesome! When I was at school my Dad worked for Ferrari, He had to deliver one to a customer in London and came home to ask if I wanted to go with him. First and last F40 I ever went out in, I don't think I even took a photo of it. But amazing experience, wish I could remember it better. It definitely had the lexan slide window instead of the full wind down ones.

People always talk about getting second hand embarassment and I felt a second hand anxiety when watching this video. It takes courage to lend a car to your friend, doing so with an F40 is something else.
