The Ferrari F40, a legendary supercar, now holds immense collectible value. Imagine the surprise when one of these icons undergoes a wide-body transformation by Liberty Walk. This very scenario unfolded at what appears to be a racing event in the Land of the Rising Sun.

Finished in a striking blue hue, the exterior is adorned with an array of decals, including the signature Liberty Walk graphics. To the untrained eye, it might resemble a genuine race car, but enthusiasts will instantly recognize it as a customized masterpiece.

Liberty Walk’s signature touches are evident in the vented front hood, extended front fenders, and muscular rear haunches. The wide-body kit is further enhanced by a front splitter, an Italian flag-adorned wing, side skirts, a rear diffuser, a massive rear wing, and other intricate details, all contributing to the car’s bold new aesthetic.

This F40 sits remarkably low, thanks to an adjustable air suspension system. The ultra-wide white-painted six-spoke wheels complete the aggressive stance.

As a reminder from its heyday, Ferrari equipped over 1,300 F40s with a mid-mounted V8 engine. This twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter powerhouse delivers 471 horsepower and 426 pound-feet (577 Nm) of torque. The F40 boasts a top speed of 201 mph and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds.

While its performance might pale in comparison to today’s automotive landscape, it’s crucial to remember that the Ferrari F40 was born in the 1980s. Production began in 1987 at the Maranello factory and continued until 1996.

The F40 holds a special place in Ferrari’s history as the last model personally approved by Enzo Ferrari himself. It’s widely regarded as one of the greatest supercars ever produced by the Prancing Horse, alongside the F50, 288 GTO, Enzo, and LaFerrari. Today, its value reaches approximately $3 million in the current market.
