The Blue Chip F40: A reimagined Ferrari F40 in Hyperion Blue

They say never meet your heroes. The owner of this Ferrari F40 experienced disappointment when he met his childhood hero for the first time. Unlike with people, though, you can change cars, and that’s what he did, creating the Blue Chip F40.

After buying it, the owner installed a bunch of performance upgrades, including 355mm Brembo brakes, KW fully-adjustable suspension with lift kit, 18-inch wheels, a Michelotto LM gearbox (one of 30 built), Tubi Style exhaust, modified waste gates and upgraded air conditioning.

Lastly, the owner refinished the body in Hyperion Blue and the interior in Suede Blue, putting the “blue” into Blue Chip F40.

I'm sorry, but that car just needs to be RED !!!!  The blue is a lovely color, but it just doesn't belong on an F40. And don't even get me started on the blue suede interior....trying to emulate a 60's era Buick ??

It's definitely a statement those colors, isn't it?

Some automobiles are so spectacular and rare in their factory-original form that they should not be modified.  A Ferrari F40 is probably one of them.  I could not bring myself to spend money modifying a car while reducing its value. 

In reply to DrJ :

I hear you on that one, I think the only way I'd go this deep in modifications on an F40 is if the car was in some sort of accident and it's value was already impacted.

does it come with blue suede driving shoes

I think the blue paint looks fantastic.  The seats are meh.  I am also a fan of green f40s.
