I can't imagine who did this at this fabolous car!
The engin is the same of F1 season 1991, or 1990 I think. Ferrari increased the capacity from 3.5 to 4.7 litres, and detuned it from 700 tho 520 cv. This engine, with a tubi exahust sounds like a proper F1 engin with 8500rpm redline!
German tuners IMHO don't have a good taste

:wink:
I would only change the originals wheels to avoid contacts with pavement..
or the brakes if they are difficult to find.
But if I want a car with 900cv I'd take a Skyline R34 and modify it, the F50 is part of the history of the automotive world

what a truly scary car; in the wrong hands it's an accident wiating to happen.

oh yea I have seen them there was like 10-12 clips of it ,would be a lot nicer if it was 1 big clip.

Exactly!
modifying an F50 is just beeing stupid.

I think that Ferraris in generall shouldn't be modified beacause while it may improve the performance, it will ruin the car and the Ferrari experience.

having said that it shouldn't be modified, this koening F50 is soo bad ass.

i wish all cars can have a "power screw" function, lol
Of course to increase the horsepower, not to lower it, hehe

i mean...the F50 is nice..but who can blame Koenig for just wanting to go bigger and better? I think if you can do it, go for it. Then send me one...just for safekeeping.

That's bull. The owner of the car was dissapointed by the performance of the car, so he made it quicker. The optical changes are purely for techical reasons. I don't see what the big deal is.

I posted an article on it in the magazine scans forum a while back. Look it up, this car is not jsut some tuner car.

LOL@most people moaning about the Ferrari experience without ever have driven one. Of course that excludes you Jabba.

hoho so stupid...
I prefer F50 without turbo.
The original sound is much better.

I like the idea of having the power screw as well! Think how rare that car must be though; the f50 was a limited edtition, and how many of those people got the conversion!? You'd be pretty unique in that!

The regular F50 sure looks better. Im with u guys...

The sound of the motor is really cool, especially the noise from the blow-off valves. :D

This car maybe FAAAST but stick two turbos in that engine, a detuned F1 unit, is a CRIME.
If you want a fast mad car, take an F50 an send it to Michelotto and tell him: I want a replica of the car used in BPR series. So you have a really powerful car, it's a race F40 you can use for the road, and you don't ruin a Ferrari like this Koenig...I think the creator of this car should be arrested
