Why Is This Guy's Ferrari F40 Blue?
The colour chat starts at about the 13min 30sec mark (although it’s worth watching the whole thing, since it’s not often you see the owner of a car like this talk so candidly about it), but the reason for the colour is all because of carbonfibre weave.
Since this car was wearing white, mostly aftermarket panels when Sam bought it, the car needed a splash of paint once the bare carbon, stock parts were re-installed. It would have been difficult to get visible weave using the original Rosso Corsa, so Sam opted for a completely custom shade of blue.
If you had a car like this and needed a respray, would you be tempted to go for a non-original colour?
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.
