The first Ferrari limited edition supercar, whats not to like? It is unusual in that unlike other Ferrari supercars, the F40 is not powered by a 12 cylinder engine. Instead, the F40 features a twin turbocharged 8 cylinder power plant. During much of my childhood this was THE Ferrari, when supercars consisted mainly of the F40 and Lamborghini's Countach. These cars were in calenders, posters that were sold at my school's bookfairs. Of the Ferrari limited edition supercars, the F40, F50, and Enzo, I like the F40 best.
This diecast is decent, and pretty nice for its price. When compared to the pricey Kyosho example, this diecast will seem rather crude, and have inaccuracies, but then this version is much cheaper. I got this HotWheels F40 for around $30 with tax, and for that price I would recommend it. For those willing to spend more, I'd recommend Kyosho's iteration. Skip the HotWheels Elite edition of the F40, its over priced, has shag carpet covered seats, and has all the inaccuracies and downfalls of the normal HotWheels version.
