Bet Ya you've never seen this F50 before
I was looking for a new car (yeah right!) and stumbled across this upgraded F50 in the UK ... 820hp .. a snip at £328k (Jabba... the ideal oportunity... but it's not pure)
Totally naff rims however.. make the car look too high :roll:
Does anybody have any more info on this car, or others like it? What about the yellow one in Monaco? Has that got the same mods as this one?

This guy is also selling the F1 GTR featured on qv500
(Also the dealers website - http://www.duncanhamilton.com/ )

Are you talking about the Modena Sport F50 ? ( http://www.supercarfrance.com/MC-23.htm )
I think the yellow one was modified by the factory, not by Koenig

This one sounds like a BEAST 8)

Hrm I think I've seen this before, or it could've been the F40 one....
On the 2nd last pic is that a nitrous bottle infront of the passenger seat?

Salegosse said that, don't know where he has found those informations; anyway it IS a very special customer
(the "Ferrari legend in Malta" sticker is weird, cause the car has MC plates :roll: )

I know it has a lot of power and that it must be impressive to push the throttle of this car but I prefer pure supercars eventhough they are less powerful.
IMO the amazing point of a supercar is that it is already an incredible machine since the moment it has been finished, it doesn't need to be added anything to create a beast.

that looks like the koenig modified F50
the car has so much torque that it doesnt grip till most of the way through 3rd gear under full throttle applications.
i think there are some more videos, and specifications at www.koenig-specials.com
