The American version is almost 200kg heavier and has less hp than the European version of the F40!! The real power is ever more than the claimed by factory A curious fact is that the first units of the F40 produced in 1987 "they speak of the first 20 to 25" have the same power as the 288 GTO EVO and are even lighter!! In tests, they exceeded 370km/h but did not pass the traffic regulations of the time, so they were modified in the units produced later!! Some of the things you said that are enoing are only in the American version, including the belts on the seats, and those uglier seats, the electronic signals too!

It always comes down to the F40 being my favorite car of all time. Nothing looks like it. Back in '92 I was lucky enough to see one of the 250 or so sent to North America. My friend and I would visit a Lexus/Infinity car dealership. They dealt in some exotics so you'd never know what you would see, sometimes. We were there late at night checking out a couple 993 turbos outside on the car lot. The first production year I believe. Then this red color catches my eye. It was an F40 encased in it's own showroom with lights beaming down on it. I thought I was seeing things. We went back the next day when the dealership was open and asked if we could look at it. We went back multiple times to visit that car, the staff got to know us really well. Once every few days the salesman would start it up and roll it around the car lot to keep it in check. I was able to witness that one day and listen to that engine sing. Once in a lifetime experience.

I had a 1980 911 SC, That was reliable as a swiss watch. Oil changes, brake pads and tires, that thing was fantastic and so much fun for the money.

The motorized seat belt was used on North American cars in the early 1990s. Regulations required cars to have a supplemental restraint system. Those that didn’t have a driver’s side airbag in the steering wheel had this type of motorized seat belt. My mother’s Saturn SL1 had them. They were fairly uncommon. When I used to go out on a date in the Saturn with someone new, she would invariably be freaked out by the belts (and the cheapness of the car), but would laugh when I told her to imagine that we were in a rocket ship.

@JaredDixon10 ай бұрын
Yes, it's really a stop-gap safety regulation that only lasted a few years in North America. Basically, if your new car was manufactured after a certain date and it did not have an airbag, it was required to have a motorized seatbelt to "force" drivers to at least have an active seatbelt at all times. It was quite common across the board for US cars from the early to mid 90's Obviously, even expensive cars were impacted since the cost to re-engineer airbags into an existing design was often not worth it.
@vardiet10 ай бұрын
I remember having seen this feature in the nineties in a VW Corrado in Germany. This was an unsold US car and VW was selling them back in their mainland. For me this system was worst than a regular seatbelt as a lazy driver can ignore the horizontal belt and keep only the automatic transversal one.

The fact that Mat and his team can produce such a good quality review of a car that most likely sees for the first time in his life, all while it's so expensive and he still finds 5 annoying things about it, overwhelms me. And what genuine feeling of enthusiasm while driving it.

20 years ago I had the opportunity to get a passenger ride in one of these and wow. My lasting impression of that experience was it felt like a very fast go kart. Up to this point in my life the quickest car I’d driven was a Toyota supra turbo but this was on an other level. The picture of that day hangs in my garage to this day.

I remembered a lot that i ever used this iconic Ferrari F40 in many childhood racing games like OutRun 2, Ferrari Racing Legends, GRAN TURISMO 5 PROLOGUE, GT5, GT6, and NFS 2015. The F40 in NFS 2015 tho.... Sounded BRILLIANT!

I was 17 when this car came out and had just passed my driving test. I remember going upto Earls Court car show and they had it on display, loved it then and still love it. What a car

Yes, it is. It looks like a supercar the moment you see it from every angle. It's my childhood dream car. Still is, and I'd lose my mind if i see one in person, let alone touch it and sit in it to drive. I'd probably get teary eyes.

About 18 years ago my dad had an Italian client who invited us to Florence, he told us that he had a collection of Ferraris and told us that to surprise us we should wait for him on the bridge next to the "Ponte Vecchio" (Ponte Santa Trinita). He arrived with a beautiful F40, I remember that all the tourists began to gather around the Ferrari, my dad's client brought him to give my brother and I a ride around Florence in his F40. An experience that I will never forget. Beautiful car. Loved it!

Still my dream car and phone wallpaper! I used to see one every Sunday night! It used to join the motorway and hammer down it flames firing out the exhaust! Just perfect I’d love to just sit in one

Dream car, one of the 3 car garage question answers. Mad to think it was made in the 80’s

I think you should change the template for vintage cars. And Yes, more vintage car videos please

Simply the best car ever made. Had posters and models of this car as a teenager and its a dream to drive one. Amazing.

That's a stretch. Amazing to look at, sounds superb, no doubt drives like it looks as well. Best car ever made though? Not a chance.

An absolute classic and the first car on my “lottery winning list”. Shows the genius that Ferrari once had that this car still delivers the thrills many modern cars can’t. ❤❤

Was driving around this car (test driving) on the crew 2 for a while and finally bought it on the game few days ago. Now Matt the legend is reviewing it.
