Default F50 that I saw

I was meeting from friends in a parking lot and we were going to car pool to a car show called Hot Import Nights in Chicago. We were slowly getting stuff into my friends car to go when my friend says "hey look, theres a ferrari". i figured it was the doctor with the 360 so i wasnt insanely excited but when i looked up at saw a 1995 silver F50 roll by I almost shit myself. We jumped in and caught up to him on the interstate. Needless to say I used 1 of my 2 memory cards before I even got to the car show.

Enjoy.

Thank you, you were at the right place on the right hour !! Lucky man, these cars are more impressive to see while moving than on a podium.

Niiiiiice, I have only seen an F50 a few times...once an F50 was going the opposite direction on the interstate, and I could hear him from across the 50 ft wide median, with my windows rolled up and the radio on!

They are quite impressive, especially up close parked next to another 'normal' car, they are so incredibly low and wide...

No shit!! I didn't even know that silver was an option for those cars. For the 1st time in my life I saw an F-40 on the highway out here in Colorado. I've never seen one parked or anywhere else for that matter except at a car show. To see one on the highway was awesome. It didn't last long as it was going the opposite direction, but those cars are instantly recognizable from a long way away!

I don't know about that, I might just be seaing things but it appears, to me,
as though he's sleeping. :sleeping: Does anyone else see this?


Great sight, poodie, silver F50s are very rare in the states, most of them
were sold in Europe(silver is a very European color).
