The Ferrari F50 is the 349-unit, Formula 1-derived halo car built for Ferrari's 50th anniversary, far rarer than the F40, with a naturally aspirated V12, a six-speed gated manual and a carbon-fibre monocoque. HYPERLUXE currently references 2 public listings and 8 Ferrari F50 off-market listings, so a qualified inquiry can open access beyond the cars visible on this page.
Its 4.7-litre V12 is not merely F1-inspired marketing: it derives from Ferrari's early-1990s Formula 1 programme, later linked to the 333 SP, and is bolted directly to the carbon tub as a structural, load-bearing member. The F50 is the F40 is the legend; the F50 is the rarer, more technically exotic, naturally aspirated V12 halo car, and the last Ferrari halo car with a manual gearbox.
The Ferrari F50 (internal type F130) is a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive targa built in just 349 numbered examples between 1995 and 1997 to mark Ferrari's 50th anniversary. It is built around a carbon-fibre monocoque, with a naturally aspirated 4.7-litre 65-degree V12 mounted as a structural member, a six-speed gated manual transaxle, no ABS, no traction control and no power steering, a road car closer to a Formula 1 / prototype architecture than any of its rivals.
For buyers, the opportunity is not only the cars shown publicly here. HYPERLUXE references 8 off-market F50 listings through seller-side access, which is why a direct inquiry matters: with only 349 cars built and roughly 55 to US specification, genuinely original, Classiche-correct, well-serviced examples are extremely scarce.

Ferrari F50 pricing has risen sharply and is highly car-specific. HYPERLUXE uses $5M-$8M as model-level guidance: Hagerty shows around $5.85M for a good-condition car, European public asking prices sit around €7.4M-€8M, and exceptional 2025-2026 auction results have reached $8.805M, $9.245M and a $12.21M public sale. Prime cars frequently trade privately or POA, and confirmed sale price matters far more than asking price.
Low mileage alone is not enough on an F50: the fuel cell / fuel bladder, tyres, brakes, dampers and fluids can require six-figure recommissioning, and recent auction cars are promoted specifically on fresh fuel-cell and major-service work. Before buying, verify the chassis number and numbered plaque, Ferrari Classiche Red Book and matching engine, gearbox and coachwork numbers, mileage consistency, fuel-cell replacement invoices, removable hardtop and flight case, soft top, books, tools and fitted luggage, full service history, tyre age, brake and damper condition, original paint versus repaint (with proof on rare colours), accident history on the carbon tub and suspension pickup points, delivery market, VAT/import and title status, and seller authority. Sensitive dossiers require proof of funds.

FAQ
Key questions about production, the F1-derived V12, manual gearbox, market range and private access.
Ferrari produced 349 numbered F50 road cars between 1995 and 1997, famously one fewer than expected demand. Roughly 55 were built to US specification.
HYPERLUXE currently references 2 public Ferrari F50 listings and 8 off-market listings. The private pool is accessible only after a qualified inquiry.
A 4.7-litre naturally aspirated 65-degree V12 (Tipo F130B) producing 520 hp at 8,500 rpm and 471 Nm at 6,500 rpm, derived from Ferrari's early-1990s Formula 1 programme and mounted as a structural member of the chassis.
Yes. The F50 uses a 6-speed gated manual transaxle on every road car. It is the last Ferrari halo car with a manual gearbox, which is one of the main reasons it has become so collectible.
Technically it is a targa-style car with a removable hardtop stored in a dedicated case, not a conventional soft-top convertible. Some cars were also supplied with an emergency soft top.
Ferrari lists 0-100 km/h in 3.87 seconds and a top speed of 325 km/h, or approximately 202 mph. Period road tests measured slightly different real-world figures depending on conditions.
Yes, much rarer: 349 F50s versus around 1,315 F40 road cars. The F40 is the more iconic legend, while the F50 is the rarer, more technically exotic naturally aspirated V12 halo car.
As of 2026, references run from around $5.85M for a good-condition guide value to $8M-$12M+ for exceptional recent auction cars. European public asking prices sit around €7.4M-€8M, while the best cars often trade privately or POA.
The essentials are Classiche certification and matching numbers, mileage history, fuel-cell replacement records, roof case and accessories, books, tools and luggage, service history, paint originality, accident inspection of the carbon tub, delivery market, tax/title status and seller authority.
