The F40 was the last car launched under Enzo Ferrari himself, unveiled in 1987 to celebrate the company's fortieth anniversary, and it remains for many people the definitive supercar. It was brutally simple: a twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V8, a body of composite panels, no power steering, no anti-lock brakes and sliding plastic windows. It was the first production car to break the 200 mph barrier, and its turbo boost arrived with a violence that rewarded skill and punished carelessness in equal measure.
The Enzo, revealed in 2002 and named for the founder, took the opposite approach, packing the lessons of Ferrari's Formula 1 dominance of that era into a road car. Its 6.0-liter V12 made around 650 horsepower, and its carbon-fiber chassis, paddle-shift gearbox and racing-derived aerodynamics made it a technological showcase. Styled under Pininfarina, it was built in a run of about 400 cars, including one famously donated to the Vatican and auctioned for charity.
Both cars sit in the lineage of Ferrari's once-a-decade hypercars, between the 288 GTO and F50 before them and the LaFerrari and F80 after. Today they are blue-chip collector cars. Well-kept F40s and Enzos regularly sell for millions of dollars at major auctions, and the F40 in particular has inspired tribute builds, replicas and restomods, some of which have drawn the attention of Ferrari's lawyers. The Enzo also spawned the track-only FXX, the start of Ferrari's XX program.
Coverage here follows the auction market, notable restorations and one-offs, the occasional crash or celebrity sale, and the arguments over which of these two very different cars is the greater Ferrari. They also serve as a measuring stick for every new hypercar from Maranello, since each successor is judged by whether it can match the F40's raw drama or the Enzo's technological ambition. Few cars have aged into their legend quite so gracefully.
Two Ferrari hypercar legends: the raw, turbocharged F40 that Enzo Ferrari signed off in 1987 and the F1-bred, V12 Enzo that bore his name in 2002.
