The Ferrari F40 was thee poster car during my child hood, I remember this car because of its boxy shape. Even after all these years the F40 is still one my favorite super cars of all time, partly because it sounds god damn amazing with its twin turbo V8. This video only proves how great this car sounds. Your ears will thank me. On a side note, have you seen a F40 with its twin popped up? No because it’s ugly as hell.

What a mess! A 20 car group of super car owners were traveling on a Hiroshima when one driver lost control of his car and smashed into a guard rail. The casualties: 8 Ferrari’s’ (355′s 430′s, 360 and a 512), 3 Mercedes Benz’s, a Lamborghini Diablo, a Nissan Skyline and a Toyota Prius. The police officers on the scene do not believe that the drivers were stunting but instead think the wet roads were a reason in the crash. Looks like there will be 8 more Ferrari tables.

This isn’t the first time an artist re-purposed a crashed Ferrari. Charly Molinelli, an industrial/graphic/interior designer took a crushed Ferrari block and placed it a wooden coffin making a very bad ass coffee table. I couldn’t find anymore details but the table simply looks amazing!

Mother of god, remember how ridiculous that Lamborghini Reventon was when it got ADV1 wheels? What a difference aftermarket wheels can do to a supercar’s appearance. Not to be out done, the owner of this Ferrari Enzo ordered a set of custom-made ADV1 rims. Prototype versions of the ADV5.2SL were made for the car after being carefully measured.

The prancing horse is one of the most recognizable logos in the car world. Where did it come from? Ferrari recently released a video describing the genesis of the legendary logo.

A well-known Ferrari Enzo lost control and flew off a ledge during the Targa Newfoundland rally this year. The Ferrari Enzo is well-known in Alberta because of it’s highly modified engine and rare Edo Competition kit. Zahir Rana, owner of ZR Auto was piloting the vehicle during the crash.

I’ve never been a fan of steering wheel peripherals on game consoles but this Ferrari 458 replica might just change my mind. Thrustmaster is planning to release the steering wheel for the XBOX 360 in October for less than $90. Hopefully the mode dial on the wheel is functional. Pictures after the jump.
