Everyone daydreams about owning an F40. This owner actually did — multiple times, on the same car.
In this episode he walks through the reality of living with a high-mileage F40: the hunt, the engine-out rebuilds, the fuel tank upgrades, and the running cost of keeping one alive. He pulls apart the myths too — why the turbo lag is overstated, why the "widowmaker" reputation says more about the driver than the car, and how the brakes, tires, and infamous plexi windows actually shape the drive.
It's an honest look at a car that's far more raw experience than modern convenience — and his core argument: the Ferrari F40 rewards use, not preservation. Worth a listen whether you're seriously contemplating one or just want the truth behind the legend.
