So it’s 1995 and a rainy fall morning.  My boss (read - Bronco Billy) and I are trying to find the company we are to audit.  We are in a nice industrial complex and decided we’ve passed the building and turn into an alley to turn around and  – “HOLY CRAP – up there – “ and there it is – the rear end of a jan-U- wine Ferrari F40 sticking out of a shops garage.  Sez I “Clemson – go back – see that - - -“ and with Bronco Boss’s aplomb reply he says – “What, that Camero?”

 

Alas.

 

I went back later.  The shop was Bobileff’s on Mesa Rim Road.  Nice guys

Think HEAVY F40.  All that power, but way more weight and crappier brakes (REALLY, imagine that!).

What can be done about it while preserving stock wheels?
 

 

Seating positon was worse too and the ergonomics are pure 308.  It bit much to deal with while balancing 400 hp.

 

How fast does it feel compared to other cars out there?
 

Overall a neat collector piece for the SteveJ's of the world, but I wouldn't make it your only Ferrari.

 

Of course....but it looks so nice!
