This Ferrari FXX is powered by a 6.2L V12 engine which produces an incredible 800hp @ 8500rpm. The FXX was limited to just 20 production units when it is first instroduced and it costs 1.8 million. Motor Authoriy shows us road test video of the sport car.
The FXX is significantly different underneath the skin to the already stunning Enzo. The FXX’s 800hp and 508 pound-feet of torque easily beat the Enzo’s numbers, not to mention the 500-odd pound weight advantage. Only 29 lucky souls were chosen to buy a FXX from Ferrari, and their driving experiences were used as part of the development process for future models.

Motor Authority wants to refresh our memory on the legendary Ferrari F40. Just watch the video after the jump.
Ferrari’s first 200mph car was truly extreme, ditching all the niceties of a road car to be as close to a race car as possible. The paint was so thin you could see the carbon-fiber weave inside, and the whole car weighed just 1100kg. With a 478hp turbocharged V8 it could hit 0-60mph in just 3.2 seconds, a result that would still be impressive today. It”s hard to imagine this car was running around almost 20 years ago.
