Reminds of those cheap annodised Halfrauds maglite torches. Sad

This is more for me:

And this would have been sexy without such low stooping rear lights:
Mad

At least someone in Japan has taste; not sure about spares though. Shocked

I wonder how much doing that has wiped off the value of it.

Just a guess, but I'd suggest that anyone who can afford a car like that, then customise it too isn't likely to be worried too much about depreciation?

A nice financial position to be in, but it really shows if the owner has taste or not Wink

Evil or Very Mad Blue! Shocked Shocked Blood red or not at all Evil or Very Mad

All Italian supercars should be red with the exception of Maserati and they should be Maserati blue (old school).

Pepperami has spoken........ end of!

The colour isn't horrible, the type of paint / coating is very very shiny and nice. But a Blue F40 is about as wrong as a spitfire painted in luftwaffe colours.
The type of paint / finish with the modern ferrari red would be awesome.

I doubt he/she cares about depreciation, that's for sure.

But the original red, barely thick enough to cover the weave of the CF, is where's it's at.

Nah, Maseratis should be red as well.

All the best

The lights are actually thin and the black part is the vent Thumbs Up

I'm one of those 'Ferrari's should be red' people but I really like that

I meant generally..

But the final few years of production, they were pretty much GTis, but with a few less toys and a cloth interior with a pattern from the 206 XSi, some did come with 16v but very rare and none over here.
