it looks like someone wrapped an F40 around a testarossa:eek:

I don't really like the styling of it, but hey it IS a FERRARI. So I have to like it. Anybody know how much the one on Ebay sold for?

This is it! The 1000 hp monster. It does look more like a modified F40 but it is a Testarossa. At least it was when it left the Ferrari factory... (interestingly there are no Ferrari badges on the car - Ferrari did not allow it)

(by the way, I have no idea if the 380 kph / 236 mph claimed top speed was ever verified - or the 1000 (DIN) horsepower ..)

...and this is the even rarer and probably the most powerfull open top car ever.

At 236 mph with no top it would feel like Indianapolis! Totally insane!

I just noticed the car has US side marker (?) lights so at some point it must have been registered in the US at a massive cost no doubt.

Also notice that theres no one driving the car but it appears to be moving very fast (dont ask me!)

what 1000hp, damn Koenig sure can modify. :cheers:

Delayed response....I'm new...need to catch up :D

I bet you anything the guys at Koenig looked at the the engine and was wondering what to do with the Flat-12 when someone chimed in and said "Didn't the 917 have over 1000hp? That was a Flat-12 right?"
