Takes some serious cash to pull that off. Pretty amazing, i can only imagine how fun it would be too take an F40 out for a spin.

I've noticed Lamborghinis have seperate e-brake calipers too.

Awesome find.

F40 and the 355 are my favorite Ferrari's of all time.

I thought the F40 body was made out of Carbon Fibre/Kevlar?
