Ferrari Mailing List: Re: F430 vs. F50

[Hans E. Hansen (FList]

I'm not sure what the published HP figure for the F50 is, but I have
a series of photos of a dyno screen showing an F50 with over 500hp
*at the wheel*.  The car was very lightly modified - exhaust, etc.

I think this trumps the F430......
