The Ferrari F50 was created to celebrate Ferrari's 50th anniversary and stands as one of the most significant hypercars ever produced. Between 1995 and 1997, Ferrari built exactly 349 units — each powered by the Tipo F130B, a 4.7-litre naturally aspirated V12 directly descended from Ferrari's Formula 1 engine programme and producing 520 horsepower at 8,000 rpm through a 6-speed gated manual gearbox.
Rosso Corsa is the quintessential Ferrari colour — named after the Italian racing red that Ferrari's Grand Prix cars carried through the sport's most storied decades. Of the 349 F50s built, approximately 302 were finished in Rosso Corsa, making it the definitive F50 specification. Ferrari Classiche certification confirms that each example retains its original specification and components, providing the documentary foundation that major auction houses and private collectors require.
David & Co has access to two distinct Rosso Corsa F50 examples, each serving a different type of collector. The 2,200 km example represents the ultimate in preserved originality — a near-delivery-mileage F50 that has spent almost its entire existence in storage. The 60,000 km example has been maintained to the highest standard and has a rich documented history of events, drives, and servicing — a car that has lived its life as intended.

Full high-resolution galleries and complete Ferrari Classiche documentation available for both examples upon verified buyer request.
Authoritative coverage on the Ferrari F50, its Formula 1 heritage, and notable Rosso Corsa examples.
Of the 349 Ferrari F50s produced between 1995 and 1997, approximately 302 were delivered in Rosso Corsa — making it the most common F50 colour, and the quintessential F50 specification. The 349-unit total production makes every example, in every colour, extraordinarily rare.
David & Co has two Ferrari F50 Rosso Corsa options: a near-delivery example with approximately 2,200 km for the collector prioritising originality, and a driven example with approximately 60,000 km that carries a rich documented history. Both are Ferrari Classiche certified with full service records. Additional options may be available on request.
Neither is objectively better — it depends entirely on the buyer's profile. The 2,200 km example offers near-original condition and maximum investment-grade appeal at major auction houses. The 60,000 km example offers a car that has been maintained and driven through its service life — with a richer documented history — at a lower acquisition cost. Contact David & Co to discuss which profile suits your goals.

Yes. With 349 units produced, an F1-derived naturally aspirated V12, and a gated manual gearbox, the F50 is one of Ferrari's most defensible collector assets.
