There have only been 8 Ferrari F50s released and all of them have right-hand drive, one of them is being auctioned.
As one of the 5 cars in the famous Big Five Ferrari list, every Ferrari F50 on the used car market is special, regardless of what options are equipped or how many ODOs it has.
Ferrari only produced exactly 349 F50s and all of them used a 4.7L V12 engine taken from Formula 1 racing cars, while the design became the inspiration for the car company to “prancing horse”. develop future supercar models.
More specifically, of the 349 units shipped, only 8 had the right-hand drive option. Recently, one of the eight was put up for auction.
This F50 has serial number 298/349, shipped in March 1997 with right-hand drive. But in 2000, the car’s owner at that time switched to right-hand drive thanks to the help of Pininfarina.
According to the unit that organized the auction RM Sotheby’s, by May 2000, the car had traveled 20,116 km and by 2003, the ODO number had increased to 29,523 km. This is considered a fairly large ODO number for a rare car model like the F50.
However, before being auctioned, this F50 had not been driven for 20 years. Currently, the car has an ODO of about 34,269 km.
Although no Ferrari F50 is cheap, future owners can drive this supercar regularly and not worry about its value decreasing. Most F50s with low ODO numbers will often have a steep discount if the owner drives them regularly.
Possessing a high ODO number, this F50 will definitely bring the same thrill as other F50s and provide reverse steering for those who want it.
Ferrari F50 has a V12 engine, 4.7L capacity, naturally aspirated, producing 513 horsepower. Thanks to that, the Italian supercar can accelerate to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds. The car’s exterior is finished in classic Rosso Corsa red paint, and comes with many original accessories such as a tool kit, central lock removal tool and all relevant maintenance records.
