Described as a Formula 1 racer for the streets, the Ferrari F50 GT already incorporated many racing car design features. Outwardly the F50 GT was easily recognizable through its altered nose and rear wing. Like the road going V12, the GT's engine displaced exactly 4.7 litres, but it was extensively modified to produce 750 bhp (559 kW), an increase of well over 200 bhp (150 kW). The engineers put the F50 on a strict diet, resulting in a 400 kg weight loss for the racer.

Ferrari test driver Nicola Larini extensively tested the first car built on Ferrari's private Fiorano test track in September of 1996. The F50 GT's out of the box pace was quite impressive, with Larini clocking faster lap times than the 333 SP prototype racer. This has however remained as the F50 GTs ole career highlight, as Ferrari pulled the plug on the project soon after the first tests were completed.

The sole completed car was sold to an American collector and two more were constructed for two prominent Ferrari clients. All three cars were sold under the condition that they were never to be raced in anger. Three further tubs were constructed, but according to Ferrari these were later destroyed. There are only three F50 GT's were produced, with two other chassis going unbuilt. The price of the real F50 GT was $1,430,000 USD.

Although, you may not have the amount of money to own the precious Ferrari F50 GT.However, you have the chance to own this in smaller scale based on the utterly beautiful, semi-finished die-cast model of the fabulous Ferrari F50 by Tamiya.
