The F50 offers more horsepower, but the F40 surges back with a torque advantage that essentially renders these two engines as equals. The Ferrari F40 features a responsive 5-speed transmission that provides a satisfying shift whether you’re circling the track or traversing the Chicago streets.

The Ferrari F40 (Type F120) is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car [12] engineered by Nicola Materazzi with styling by Pininfarina. It was built from 1987 until 1992, with the LM and GTE race car versions continuing production until 1994 and 1996 respectively. [ 15 ]

Mar 7, 2019 · While the F40 charges on as a modern icon, the F50 trails in its wake undeservedly. With sublime performance and style, these cars established the terms for a modern supercar and with precious few exceptions, nothing else has been able to stand above so authoritatively.

Nov 13, 2020 · Loved by purists for its naturally aspirated V-12 engine and F1-inspired technology, the F50 is already a full-fledged classic, despite being only 25 years old as of 2020. But the F50 has also...

F50: Zero to 30mph in 2.1s, 60mph in 3.7s, 100mph in 7.1s, 124mph in 11.4s, 155mph in 18.3s, 186mph in 27.6s, and 200mph in 33.6s. Honestly though, I view the F40-to-F50 transition as similar to a LaFerrari-from-SF90 transition. Also, the F40 makes 511lb-ft@4750rpm whilst the F50 makes 364lb-ft@8700rpm.

Nov 24, 2022 · The Ferrari F40 and F50 may have similar names, but they were developed for different purposes under different leadership and with different philosophies behind every nut and bolt.

Oct 27, 2023 · Not sure if you’ve seen this, but it’s a great few minutes to watch: Chris Harris - F40 vs F50. My choice is the F40. F50. A naturally aspirated V12. Manual gearbox. F50. Think it looks a touch more modern, and manual V12.

Dec 20, 2015 · I always knew that the F40 is Faster than F50, I searched everywhere to find a lap/drag race video between the two, but I never found anything, except for chris harris F40 VS F50, Best motoring 400M Race, Best motoring Super Battle 200-5. Which Car is faster? and can you provide me with link/ facts? thanks

F40 just looks more aggressive. But the engine in the F50 is better. And that’s saying something because the Turbo V8 in the F40 is one of the best engines ever in its own right. the F50’s is just on another level though.

Unlike the F40, which relied on turbocharged power, the F50 was equipped with a naturally aspirated V12 engine—a direct descendent of Ferrari’s Formula 1 engines from the early 1990s—making it unique within the “Big Five” supercars.
