Don't care what anybody says.. The F40 is the most beautiful ferrari ever .

By the way what is the difference between this one and the LM and the normal F40??ofcource apart from the obvious headlights and rims and I suspect bigger brakes..

The LM, GT and GTE are race versions of the F40.


The LM has the following mods:

• reinforced chassis and revised suspension
• better brakes
• a racing version of the F40 engine with 720 or 760 hp (higher turbo boost, bigger intercoolers, higher compression ratio, etc...)
• revised gearbox with racing clutch
• cf front chin spoiler and new rear wing
• normal headlights (not the pop-up versions)
• 19 have been built

The GT was developed for endurance GT racing, and was the closest to the standard F40. Mods included:

• suspension and brake mods of the LM
• tuned standard F40 engine with 560 hp, due to an increased turbo boost and modified exhaust system
• a few lighter body panels were used
• 7 of them have been built

And finally the GTE. It had been produced for the GT Championship and have the same mods as the LM, but on top of that they have:

• another rear wing
• the selection of 3 different racing engines: 3.0, 3.5 and 3.6 ranging from 600 to 800 hp.
• 6-speed sequential racing gearbox
• later models also had carbon brakes and a carbon clutch
• 6 have been built

And to make it even more confusing, there were also a few unofficial racing version of the F40.

^^^ didn't know that, I thought GTE, GT and LM were the same car ops:
I did these shot last year can someone indentify the model ?

That's a LM, cause it has a manual 5-speed gearbox, regular headlamps and racy rear wing.
