1
00:00:01,335 --> 00:00:04,839
This week, I'll be driving iconic Ferraris
on a race track,

2
00:00:04,964 --> 00:00:06,966
the F40 and the F50.

3
00:00:07,216 --> 00:00:10,720
Mike Musto will drive a Cadillac
with 700 horsepower and ailerons.

4
00:00:10,886 --> 00:00:13,305
Welcome to Drive, on NBC Sports.

5
00:00:38,664 --> 00:00:40,499
Upon its launch, in 1987,

6
00:00:40,624 --> 00:00:43,377
the Ferrari F40 was
the fastest in history.

7
00:00:43,461 --> 00:00:44,503
PRESENTER

8
00:00:44,587 --> 00:00:46,964
More than 2 decades later,
Their numbers remain the same.

9
00:00:47,256 --> 00:00:50,676
Although some sports cars from before
Now they can lose to a Toyota Camry,

10
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,430
the F40 is not one of them.
He was way ahead of his time,

11
00:00:54,638 --> 00:00:57,391
and then the F50 appeared
y resultó ser un enigma.

12
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,851
Su motor era más potente,

13
00:00:58,934 --> 00:01:01,353
pero el F50 era menos veloz
than the F40,

14
00:01:01,437 --> 00:01:04,815
así que la gente lo ignoró.
No creo que haya sido justo.

15
00:01:05,149 --> 00:01:07,651
Más adelante, veremos cómo
these two fantastic

16
00:01:07,735 --> 00:01:11,405
Ferraris clásicos se desenvuelven
compitiendo en una pista de carreras.

17
00:01:11,655 --> 00:01:14,200
Pero ahora hablaremos sobre Cadillacs.

18
00:01:14,658 --> 00:01:17,620
When was the last time
that you saw a Cadillac Hot Rod?

19
00:01:18,204 --> 00:01:21,165
Si eres como la mayoría,
la respuesta será "nunca".

20
00:01:21,248 --> 00:01:24,919
Pero en nuestro primer segmento,
you will be able to see and hear a copy

21
00:01:25,002 --> 00:01:28,088
of madness in the world of muscle cars,
work of a mad genius

22
00:01:28,172 --> 00:01:32,009
obsessed with huge engines
and the American luxury cars of the 60s.

23
00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:36,472
The proper word here is "presence."
Drive's Mike Musto

24
00:01:36,555 --> 00:01:40,184
found a '64 Cadillac Hot Rod
with presence.

25
00:01:43,604 --> 00:01:45,564
HALF MOON BAY, CALIFORNIA
STATE ROUTE 1

26
00:01:45,815 --> 00:01:47,650
When the garage opens
of most grandparents,

27
00:01:47,942 --> 00:01:50,653
It is not unlikely to see a Cadillac.

28
00:01:51,111 --> 00:01:55,449
You could see an El Dorado, a Seville
or even an XTS sedan.

29
00:01:56,158 --> 00:01:59,286
But a '64 Deville with an engine?
supercharged big-block? I don't believe it.

30
00:01:59,370 --> 00:02:03,249
You will see. To create a machine like this,
three things are needed: knowledge,

31
00:02:03,374 --> 00:02:05,626
perseverance and a great sense of humor.

32
00:02:14,426 --> 00:02:16,387
The first thing you should remember is...

33
00:02:16,512 --> 00:02:17,179
PRESENTER

34
00:02:17,304 --> 00:02:18,597
...that this is a Cadillac.

35
00:02:18,722 --> 00:02:22,059
That means that,
More than anything, it is a luxury car.

36
00:02:22,393 --> 00:02:24,061
So let's look at its details.

37
00:02:24,311 --> 00:02:26,897
The leather seats are
of a beautiful blood color,

38
00:02:27,064 --> 00:02:29,191
They are very soft and pleasant.

39
00:02:29,275 --> 00:02:31,777
Yes, it is a bench seat.
Remember that in 1964

40
00:02:31,861 --> 00:02:34,405
there were no belts,
especially in luxury cars.

41
00:02:34,947 --> 00:02:39,034
Stainless metal on the board
It's not something too excessive,

42
00:02:39,285 --> 00:02:42,371
but it gives the appearance of success and luxury,

43
00:02:42,538 --> 00:02:44,206
which was the essence of the Cadillac.

44
00:02:44,331 --> 00:02:45,875
That is, since

45
00:02:45,958 --> 00:02:49,879
the 1930s to the early 1970s,
the Cadillac was the most desired car.

46
00:02:49,962 --> 00:02:52,673
Yes, you could have
a Rolls-Royce or a Mercedes,

47
00:02:52,965 --> 00:02:54,174
But if you were from the US.

48
00:02:54,258 --> 00:02:55,801
and you wanted the best of your country,

49
00:02:56,427 --> 00:02:58,637
this was what you bought,
and there is a reason.

50
00:02:59,096 --> 00:03:01,265
Look at the stainless finishes
at the door,

51
00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:04,184
on the steering wheel
and in the details of the door.

52
00:03:04,268 --> 00:03:07,313
If it is electricity,
This car came with everything.

53
00:03:07,396 --> 00:03:10,107
Seats, windows
and electric door locks,

54
00:03:10,232 --> 00:03:12,067
electric roof, air conditioning,

55
00:03:12,234 --> 00:03:13,402
automatic air conditioning.

56
00:03:13,694 --> 00:03:14,820
AIR CONDITIONING
COMFORT CONTROL

57
00:03:14,904 --> 00:03:16,989
It had all the luxuries
that could be desired,

58
00:03:17,072 --> 00:03:18,741
and remember it was 1964.

59
00:03:18,824 --> 00:03:21,118
Not the 80s or the 90s,
when all that was standard.

60
00:03:21,201 --> 00:03:22,745
If you look at the back,

61
00:03:22,828 --> 00:03:25,164
you will see ashtrays with lighters,

62
00:03:25,247 --> 00:03:27,166
because, you know what?
People still smoked.

63
00:03:27,666 --> 00:03:29,627
They also have these beautiful pieces

64
00:03:29,752 --> 00:03:31,670
Stainless steel with lenses.

65
00:03:31,837 --> 00:03:34,465
When the seats were raised
a light turned on

66
00:03:34,548 --> 00:03:36,300
to illuminate where to exit or enter.

67
00:03:36,467 --> 00:03:39,136
Things that manufacturers don't put
in cars today,

68
00:03:39,219 --> 00:03:41,597
because it's too expensive
and they can't do it.

69
00:03:42,139 --> 00:03:46,101
Cadillac went to great lengths to ensure
to make your car stand out from the rest.

70
00:03:46,185 --> 00:03:49,688
They wanted to make luxury cars
to transmit an image

71
00:03:49,772 --> 00:03:52,691
not just cars,
but of the people who led them.

72
00:03:53,609 --> 00:03:56,070
Well, when I bought the car,
it didn't work.

73
00:03:56,904 --> 00:03:58,781
I had it brought in and repaired.

74
00:03:58,864 --> 00:03:59,782
OWNER

75
00:03:59,865 --> 00:04:01,283
I took a look at it and said:

76
00:04:01,700 --> 00:04:05,204
"It needs paint."
So we worked on the whole car,

77
00:04:05,371 --> 00:04:07,581
the engine, the body,

78
00:04:07,665 --> 00:04:10,668
the paint, the ceiling, the upholstery.
That was the first step.

79
00:04:10,751 --> 00:04:14,380
We painted it black and red,
and I kept it that way

80
00:04:14,463 --> 00:04:17,132
for about 15 years. And I got bored.

81
00:04:17,716 --> 00:04:21,136
I decided to paint it black.
I took the engine out again.

82
00:04:21,845 --> 00:04:26,433
I went back to work on the engine
and then I got bored of it.

83
00:04:26,809 --> 00:04:28,936
The reason for doing this was that

84
00:04:29,061 --> 00:04:32,690
I had imagined having a car
with a supercharged engine,

85
00:04:32,773 --> 00:04:35,025
and I thought, "Why not a Cadillac?"

86
00:04:35,526 --> 00:04:37,194
Because you don't see many.

87
00:04:37,695 --> 00:04:40,155
Horsepower
They were perfect for the car.

88
00:04:40,489 --> 00:04:43,617
It looks good and I think I took
the best possible decision.

89
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:06,724
Right now, I'm behind the wheel
from a 1964 Cadillac.

90
00:05:06,932 --> 00:05:09,601
It's not a car
what you would normally consider

91
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:11,311
a muscle car, if you will.

92
00:05:12,354 --> 00:05:15,566
But this is not
an ordinary 64 Cadillac.

93
00:05:15,649 --> 00:05:20,404
You will see. The car I'm driving
It's something like the quintessence

94
00:05:20,487 --> 00:05:21,655
of what a Hot Rod is.

95
00:05:21,739 --> 00:05:23,198
Six meters long,

96
00:05:23,866 --> 00:05:29,455
2086 kilos with a big-block Chevy engine
of 7669 cubic centimeters

97
00:05:29,538 --> 00:05:32,041
with a supercharger on top.

98
00:05:32,624 --> 00:05:36,003
and I'm driving
on the California coast.

99
00:05:43,343 --> 00:05:45,012
Next, in Drive...

100
00:05:45,095 --> 00:05:47,014
But why would someone say:

101
00:05:47,097 --> 00:05:49,933
"I'm going to take a Cadillac and put

102
00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:53,604
the drawing of a flame on the sides,
with a supercharger and everything else"?

103
00:05:53,937 --> 00:05:55,731
Basically, he did something

104
00:05:55,898 --> 00:05:58,442
that very few people
it would have occurred to them.

105
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:03,781
STATE ROUTE 1

106
00:06:03,864 --> 00:06:05,532
What's great about this car

107
00:06:06,116 --> 00:06:08,077
It is the visceral impact it produces.

108
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,454
Normally when you drive

109
00:06:10,537 --> 00:06:12,915
you look over the hood
and you don't really see

110
00:06:12,998 --> 00:06:15,167
nothing more than the surface of a hood.

111
00:06:15,751 --> 00:06:18,253
But here I see so many things. That is...

112
00:06:18,545 --> 00:06:20,506
I look ahead and see the pulley

113
00:06:20,589 --> 00:06:22,508
with the huge belt spinning.

114
00:06:22,925 --> 00:06:24,968
If I step on the accelerator,

115
00:06:25,469 --> 00:06:28,931
I can see the connections
of the carburetors moving.

116
00:06:29,431 --> 00:06:30,474
Without the hood, I feel

117
00:06:30,557 --> 00:06:32,518
the wind in what's left of my hair.

118
00:06:32,601 --> 00:06:33,519
and simply

119
00:06:33,602 --> 00:06:34,978
It's a great experience.

120
00:06:35,687 --> 00:06:37,648
Can I feel in my body

121
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,025
the 650 horsepower? Well...

122
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,949
That is, this car
It definitely accelerates well.

123
00:06:47,032 --> 00:06:48,492
No doubt. You know,

124
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:53,080
650 horsepower may seem
enormous power.

125
00:06:53,539 --> 00:06:56,250
But remember that the car
It weighs more than 2000 kilos.

126
00:06:56,333 --> 00:07:00,295
It's a huge old Cadillac.
A lot of steel, a lot of chrome,

127
00:07:00,587 --> 00:07:03,298
many things that add weight.

128
00:07:04,341 --> 00:07:06,593
You will look at me and say:
"Mike, why

129
00:07:06,677 --> 00:07:08,554
Don't you put both hands on the wheel?"

130
00:07:08,971 --> 00:07:12,975
Well, it's a convertible,
I'm going 96 kilometers per hour

131
00:07:13,058 --> 00:07:15,686
and I relax. I also use

132
00:07:15,769 --> 00:07:17,855
seat belt,
in case you are wondering:

133
00:07:17,938 --> 00:07:19,314
"Why don't you wear a belt?"

134
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:21,692
You must remember that in 1964

135
00:07:21,775 --> 00:07:25,154
lap belts were the norm.
You couldn't see them.

136
00:07:25,279 --> 00:07:26,363
Here is a belt.

137
00:07:30,576 --> 00:07:33,745
Regarding braking,
Ron has also upgraded the brakes.

138
00:07:33,829 --> 00:07:36,623
It has disc brakes
original fronts,

139
00:07:36,707 --> 00:07:39,126
but he has also placed
discs in the rear,

140
00:07:39,209 --> 00:07:41,461
so the car pedal
responds very well.

141
00:07:41,587 --> 00:07:44,256
And that's fine. If you brake, the car obeys.

142
00:07:44,339 --> 00:07:45,382
Brakes very well.

143
00:07:46,175 --> 00:07:50,053
The best part is, thank you
to this huge 7669 cc engine

144
00:07:50,137 --> 00:07:52,014
and the supercharger, when you accelerate...

145
00:07:54,725 --> 00:07:56,810
Now you put your hands on the wheel.

146
00:07:59,438 --> 00:08:03,066
When you drive any car from the 60s,

147
00:08:03,358 --> 00:08:05,944
they usually have
Very stiff suspension.

148
00:08:06,069 --> 00:08:09,907
You already know. Old shock absorbers,
thin tires,

149
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:12,117
jumping when driving. Not much different

150
00:08:12,201 --> 00:08:15,537
to any car
of the United States of the 80s.

151
00:08:16,205 --> 00:08:18,707
Ron hasn't made any more improvements to the car.

152
00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:21,210
to add new shock absorbers at the front

153
00:08:21,293 --> 00:08:23,212
and air suspension at the back.

154
00:08:23,879 --> 00:08:26,882
Is it a car for high speeds?
No way.

155
00:08:26,965 --> 00:08:28,425
It wasn't made for that.

156
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:31,303
Six meters long,
supercharger, convertible car.

157
00:08:31,470 --> 00:08:33,722
This car was created
exactly for this:

158
00:08:33,805 --> 00:08:37,017
walk along the coast
on a spectacular day.

159
00:08:39,978 --> 00:08:44,983
In our circle of friends,
We do not have small blocks.

160
00:08:45,442 --> 00:08:47,861
They are prohibited in our cars.

161
00:08:48,111 --> 00:08:51,573
So we decided that if it's going to be big,

162
00:08:52,074 --> 00:08:52,908
let it be big.

163
00:09:00,374 --> 00:09:02,459
When you look at Ron, what do you see?

164
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:04,086
A man in his 60s

165
00:09:04,169 --> 00:09:06,922
who has lived his life
and has worked hard,

166
00:09:07,172 --> 00:09:10,008
and who has always been a fan
to the Hot Rods. But why

167
00:09:10,133 --> 00:09:13,387
someone would say:
"I'm going to take a Cadillac and put

168
00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:17,557
the drawing of a flame on the sides,
with a supercharger and everything else"?

169
00:09:17,641 --> 00:09:19,518
Basically, he did something

170
00:09:19,643 --> 00:09:22,312
that very few people
it would have occurred to them.

171
00:09:22,437 --> 00:09:25,315
From the outside, it looks like a car.
of amusement park.

172
00:09:25,399 --> 00:09:28,652
I mean, it's ridiculous and fun.

173
00:09:28,735 --> 00:09:31,363
No one could see it happen
and not make any comments.

174
00:09:31,697 --> 00:09:35,284
But the interior is unchanged
and it's wonderful.

175
00:09:35,534 --> 00:09:38,787
The chrome, the indicators,
Cadillac's thin steering wheel.

176
00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:40,289
It has a Turbo 400 transmission

177
00:09:40,372 --> 00:09:42,332
and a 9-inch Ford axle.

178
00:09:42,416 --> 00:09:45,002
So it's a good automatic
with overdrive.

179
00:09:45,085 --> 00:09:48,380
There is no need to make changes. there is no
weird connections to worry about,

180
00:09:48,463 --> 00:09:50,048
just a classic and reliable

181
00:09:50,173 --> 00:09:53,552
trany GM you know it's going to last
for thousands of kilometers.

182
00:09:54,469 --> 00:09:57,514
The car has no problems or locks.

183
00:09:57,639 --> 00:09:59,891
It almost seems like it has
an injection engine

184
00:09:59,975 --> 00:10:02,227
and it is a wonderful specimen.

185
00:10:02,686 --> 00:10:05,439
Has no problems starting up,
does not drown,

186
00:10:05,647 --> 00:10:08,650
there is no fault
that could make you think

187
00:10:08,734 --> 00:10:12,237
this car is a rare beast
which cannot be used daily.

188
00:10:12,404 --> 00:10:13,613
You can, without a doubt.

189
00:10:13,697 --> 00:10:16,241
Ron uses it like this,
which shows the quality of the car.

190
00:10:16,825 --> 00:10:19,244
I've been to car shows
everywhere,

191
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:22,414
and this is what we want.
It is a car that must be filmed.

192
00:10:22,664 --> 00:10:25,208
It's a car that just... I don't know,

193
00:10:25,292 --> 00:10:27,127
I feel four years old.
It's the best.

194
00:10:28,086 --> 00:10:28,754
It's the best.

195
00:10:35,010 --> 00:10:38,638
The Ferrari F40 was
ahead of his time.

196
00:10:38,722 --> 00:10:42,059
Many current supercars
They have turbocharged engines

197
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:43,685
and bodywork
carbon fiber.

198
00:10:44,061 --> 00:10:45,812
In the 80s it wasn't like that.

199
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:50,317
People believed that turbos were
as reliable as the Italian economy,

200
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,861
and the carbon fiber sounded
like a rare vitamin.

201
00:10:53,487 --> 00:10:55,072
less in the world
of racing,

202
00:10:55,197 --> 00:10:58,283
where the molecules joined
of Ferrari street cars.

203
00:10:58,533 --> 00:11:01,536
The F40 was the last car
personally approved

204
00:11:01,620 --> 00:11:03,372
by Enzo Ferrari himself.

205
00:11:03,497 --> 00:11:07,084
It was the most powerful Ferrari
and expensive of history.

206
00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:10,337
Until the F50 emerged, in the 90s.

207
00:11:10,420 --> 00:11:13,465
These are two
of the best cars in history.

208
00:11:14,216 --> 00:11:16,385
So when they gave me
the keys of both,

209
00:11:16,468 --> 00:11:19,679
and they told me to drive them
as you want on a race track,

210
00:11:20,097 --> 00:11:21,390
I thought they were joking.

211
00:11:21,681 --> 00:11:22,474
It wasn't a joke.

212
00:11:25,977 --> 00:11:28,271
This will seem presumptuous and foolish to you,

213
00:11:28,355 --> 00:11:32,067
but they invite me a lot to drive
other people's expensive cars.

214
00:11:32,526 --> 00:11:33,735
I'm lucky.

215
00:11:34,277 --> 00:11:36,613
But most of the time,
they would only allow me

216
00:11:36,738 --> 00:11:39,908
drive the expensive car
in a way that wouldn't look very good

217
00:11:39,991 --> 00:11:41,910
on screen, so I usually reject it.

218
00:11:42,285 --> 00:11:43,787
I mean, who wants to see

219
00:11:43,870 --> 00:11:46,873
to a short, dark man
drive a supercar slowly?

220
00:11:47,207 --> 00:11:48,375
Definitely not me.

221
00:11:48,875 --> 00:11:49,960
But a few months ago,

222
00:11:50,043 --> 00:11:53,880
a man said I could
drive their Ferraris F40 and F50,

223
00:11:54,131 --> 00:11:58,093
and he wanted me to drive them
like I do in my videos.

224
00:11:58,218 --> 00:11:59,553
I said, "Are you sure?"

225
00:11:59,845 --> 00:12:02,848
He said, "I'd be disappointed if you don't."

226
00:12:03,473 --> 00:12:07,727
Therefore, we are looking at the two Ferraris
most exciting in history,

227
00:12:07,811 --> 00:12:10,313
which means they are
the two most exciting

228
00:12:10,397 --> 00:12:12,065
street cars of history.

229
00:12:26,037 --> 00:12:29,040
We have the beautiful Anglesey circuit,
some cameras

230
00:12:29,166 --> 00:12:32,461
and driving license
an F40 and an F50 in one shape

231
00:12:32,586 --> 00:12:34,379
which I hope you have never seen.

232
00:12:34,463 --> 00:12:38,175
I still can't believe
that this really happened.

233
00:12:39,634 --> 00:12:40,844
Next, in Drive...

234
00:12:40,927 --> 00:12:43,722
This is a real car.
There's nothing like its sound

235
00:12:44,139 --> 00:12:46,308
or like the throttle response.

236
00:12:47,434 --> 00:12:48,435
It's an animal!

237
00:12:53,482 --> 00:12:55,734
Before playing, a little information.

238
00:12:56,193 --> 00:12:59,654
Each of these two cars
It is uniquely fascinating.

239
00:12:59,905 --> 00:13:02,324
But they maintain
a tense relationship between them.

240
00:13:02,699 --> 00:13:05,785
In reality, the F50 always
has been in the shadows

241
00:13:05,869 --> 00:13:08,747
which many of us consider
the best supercar ever,

242
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:09,956
the F40.

243
00:13:10,832 --> 00:13:12,000
Ferrari did not allow

244
00:13:12,083 --> 00:13:15,462
let journalists test the F50,
because it is slower than its relative,

245
00:13:15,545 --> 00:13:17,714
but almost 20 years later,

246
00:13:17,797 --> 00:13:19,382
That doesn't seem relevant anymore.

247
00:13:19,883 --> 00:13:22,469
All I see is a carbon chassis,

248
00:13:22,552 --> 00:13:25,722
a formula 1 engine block
screwed into it,

249
00:13:25,805 --> 00:13:28,308
rear suspension
that comes out of the gearbox,

250
00:13:28,391 --> 00:13:30,685
No shift paddles on the steering wheel.

251
00:13:31,186 --> 00:13:34,606
The 4.7-liter V12 sends 520 horsepower
power to rear wheels

252
00:13:34,689 --> 00:13:37,692
through a manual transmission
six speed.

253
00:13:38,193 --> 00:13:42,239
Torque of 346 lb/ft at 6000 rpm. p. m.

254
00:13:42,489 --> 00:13:43,949
In this the F40 beats it,

255
00:13:44,032 --> 00:13:47,118
which has 426 lbs/ft.

256
00:13:47,702 --> 00:13:50,413
It is also heavier,
with 1230 kilograms.

257
00:13:50,497 --> 00:13:53,041
But for current parameters,
It is a light car.

258
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,335
And its quality stands out.

259
00:13:55,418 --> 00:13:57,337
The F50 is beautifully finished.

260
00:13:57,420 --> 00:13:58,672
Neat rubber on the windows.

261
00:13:58,797 --> 00:14:01,091
The doors close softly.

262
00:14:02,300 --> 00:14:04,135
Next to it, the F40 looks like a kit car.

263
00:14:04,219 --> 00:14:07,222
It's like that. But made 20 years before.

264
00:14:07,681 --> 00:14:09,891
But isn't that part of its charm?

265
00:14:09,975 --> 00:14:13,103
It was made to be driven,
and nothing else seemed to matter.

266
00:14:14,229 --> 00:14:17,899
It has 478 horsepower,
a little less than the F50,

267
00:14:18,191 --> 00:14:19,943
But most experts say

268
00:14:20,026 --> 00:14:22,946
that has always had
500 horsepower.

269
00:14:23,196 --> 00:14:26,116
The finish is incredibly bad.

270
00:14:26,491 --> 00:14:29,619
Luckily, the cabin
It's so empty that you don't notice it.

271
00:14:29,953 --> 00:14:33,206
but you understand
that everything there is important.

272
00:14:33,331 --> 00:14:36,501
The seat, the steering wheel,
gauges and pedals

273
00:14:36,585 --> 00:14:38,378
They are designed to perfection.

274
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,674
No other car
It gives so much emphasis to the driver,

275
00:14:42,882 --> 00:14:45,468
and that's what makes the F40 so special.

276
00:14:52,183 --> 00:14:54,436
I've driven an F40 before,
but I couldn't

277
00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:56,980
accelerate as much as I wanted on a circuit.

278
00:14:57,105 --> 00:14:59,107
This is one of my biggest dreams.

279
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,320
How will it be?
The F50 is a car of striking beauty.

280
00:15:03,486 --> 00:15:05,530
But it's very specific.

281
00:15:06,364 --> 00:15:08,241
And competent.
Like a racing car.

282
00:15:08,325 --> 00:15:09,200
He doesn't want to be agitated.

283
00:15:09,284 --> 00:15:12,120
He wants you to treat him with respect.
and drive smoothly.

284
00:15:12,829 --> 00:15:13,872
How is this going to be?

285
00:15:13,955 --> 00:15:16,124
I suspect he is very restless.

286
00:15:28,219 --> 00:15:28,887
Yeah!

287
00:15:31,056 --> 00:15:33,975
What do we have? 480 horsepower.

288
00:15:34,184 --> 00:15:37,646
1200 kilos... Accelerate!

289
00:15:40,273 --> 00:15:42,484
This is a real car.

290
00:15:42,651 --> 00:15:44,277
There's nothing like its sound

291
00:15:44,486 --> 00:15:46,655
or like the throttle response.

292
00:15:47,697 --> 00:15:48,740
It's an animal.

293
00:15:49,699 --> 00:15:52,577
But it's so agile,

294
00:15:53,620 --> 00:15:57,374
He hits the road and...

295
00:16:00,251 --> 00:16:02,754
It shouldn't be possible
do that with an F40, right?

296
00:16:03,421 --> 00:16:04,964
You only think about your angle

297
00:16:06,716 --> 00:16:07,550
and you choose it.

298
00:16:07,884 --> 00:16:08,677
Look at that.

299
00:16:13,765 --> 00:16:15,308
Gear change, very good!

300
00:16:15,392 --> 00:16:18,061
Not as mechanical as the F50, but...

301
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,691
The performance, the torque.

302
00:16:24,359 --> 00:16:25,652
It's an animal.

303
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:28,988
It's an incredible performance.

304
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,033
That's why they didn't want
for people to try the F50,

305
00:16:32,117 --> 00:16:34,411
because this, the oldest,
it's faster.

306
00:16:35,453 --> 00:16:36,621
I need this car!

307
00:16:37,247 --> 00:16:39,374
It's the car I've been looking for all my life.

308
00:16:39,457 --> 00:16:41,710
He is a real vandal.

309
00:16:42,252 --> 00:16:43,503
But it connects,

310
00:16:43,586 --> 00:16:45,088
and it's beautiful and it's...

311
00:16:48,633 --> 00:16:51,553
It's fast! And it's a challenge!

312
00:16:51,886 --> 00:16:54,723
And it has a lever, and I love it!

313
00:16:58,184 --> 00:16:58,852
What a car.

314
00:16:58,977 --> 00:17:00,645
What would they think
When did they do it?

315
00:17:00,729 --> 00:17:02,439
They probably said, "Now let's give up."

316
00:17:10,363 --> 00:17:12,365
This is the car.

317
00:17:12,699 --> 00:17:13,783
This is the car.

318
00:17:18,913 --> 00:17:20,290
Next, in Drive...

319
00:17:20,957 --> 00:17:22,667
You release the brake and accelerate.

320
00:17:24,586 --> 00:17:26,254
And look how I cross the track.

321
00:17:27,088 --> 00:17:30,884
The needle is coming
at 8500 r. p. m. And what a sound!

322
00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:31,968
Oh!

323
00:17:37,932 --> 00:17:40,852
I had never driven before
a Ferrari F50.

324
00:17:44,314 --> 00:17:47,567
Let's debunk some
of myths about a car

325
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:51,070
which was considered too slow,
bland and ugly after the F40,

326
00:17:51,571 --> 00:17:55,116
not even worth comparing
with the McLaren F1.

327
00:17:56,034 --> 00:17:56,951
I think...

328
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,455
I think some
some of those things are bullshit!

329
00:18:02,582 --> 00:18:03,750
What a sound!

330
00:18:11,883 --> 00:18:12,884
Oh!

331
00:18:13,218 --> 00:18:15,261
That's all I can say. Oh!

332
00:18:20,225 --> 00:18:21,392
Manual gear change.

333
00:18:23,186 --> 00:18:24,187
I don't want to talk.

334
00:18:24,270 --> 00:18:26,606
I just want to enjoy this,
but I have to talk.

335
00:18:28,149 --> 00:18:30,026
First things first: the engine

336
00:18:30,109 --> 00:18:31,444
It's from a Formula 1 car.

337
00:18:32,654 --> 00:18:34,489
It reaches 8500 r. p. m.

338
00:18:34,614 --> 00:18:35,782
and it is a V12.

339
00:18:38,159 --> 00:18:39,285
It is a carbon monocoque.

340
00:18:39,494 --> 00:18:40,787
rear suspension

341
00:18:40,912 --> 00:18:43,373
comes out of the back
of the gearbox.

342
00:18:46,334 --> 00:18:47,961
This is simply...

343
00:18:49,796 --> 00:18:52,215
This is the reason
why I love cars, guys.

344
00:18:52,298 --> 00:18:56,135
Why didn't people like it?
when did it come out? It's extraordinary!

345
00:18:59,180 --> 00:19:03,351
No ABS system or anything!
Sports cars should be like this.

346
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,980
The chassis, well I must say
that there is a little understeer.

347
00:19:08,857 --> 00:19:11,651
Surely it can be reduced
with some adjustments.

348
00:19:12,277 --> 00:19:14,362
The steering wheel is very slow.
It is manual and heavy.

349
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:17,115
But a little slow for my taste.

350
00:19:21,744 --> 00:19:23,162
But I love it. The pedals,

351
00:19:23,746 --> 00:19:24,789
one close to the other.

352
00:19:24,873 --> 00:19:27,375
You release the brake and accelerate.

353
00:19:28,918 --> 00:19:30,587
And look how I cross the track.

354
00:19:31,296 --> 00:19:35,258
The needle is coming
at 8500 r. p. m. And what a sound!

355
00:19:35,383 --> 00:19:38,469
Oh!

356
00:19:41,973 --> 00:19:43,600
Only God knows
How fast am I going?

357
00:19:43,683 --> 00:19:44,684
I'm not looking.

358
00:19:47,812 --> 00:19:50,523
It feels like a race car.

359
00:19:50,648 --> 00:19:52,400
The engine is from a racing car.

360
00:19:53,109 --> 00:19:54,152
I wish I didn't have this

361
00:19:54,235 --> 00:19:56,237
understeer at slow and medium speeds,

362
00:19:56,738 --> 00:19:59,115
but some tires or some adjustments
they would solve it.

363
00:20:01,159 --> 00:20:04,037
You don't have to rush the car too much.

364
00:20:04,537 --> 00:20:06,623
Enter the curve, use that...

365
00:20:07,457 --> 00:20:09,334
Excellent traction when exiting.

366
00:20:11,294 --> 00:20:13,421
Driving it is a real challenge.

367
00:20:13,796 --> 00:20:14,923
But, as you can see,

368
00:20:15,298 --> 00:20:17,175
I love him!

369
00:20:39,656 --> 00:20:43,743
This car is the reason
because I love cars!

370
00:20:44,577 --> 00:20:46,245
It's extraordinary.

371
00:20:46,329 --> 00:20:47,080
He's alive!

372
00:20:52,961 --> 00:20:54,837
As you can see, I was very excited.

373
00:20:54,921 --> 00:20:56,339
when I drove both cars.

374
00:20:56,714 --> 00:20:59,050
I made an effort
to explain how they worked,

375
00:20:59,300 --> 00:21:02,387
but I must add more things
without peeing myself with emotion.

376
00:21:02,929 --> 00:21:06,683
The F50 is spectacular.
Has the power train

377
00:21:06,766 --> 00:21:09,310
most desirable
among all supercars. It's true.

378
00:21:09,644 --> 00:21:11,980
It's not the fastest,
but his way of revolutionizing,

379
00:21:12,063 --> 00:21:15,191
its sound and its gear change
They are the best possible.

380
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:17,151
I had difficulties
with second gear,

381
00:21:17,568 --> 00:21:18,987
but it was so much my fault

382
00:21:19,153 --> 00:21:21,739
as for the lack
some adjustments to the connections.

383
00:21:22,365 --> 00:21:25,076
On the street, the F50
I was a little less impressed,

384
00:21:25,159 --> 00:21:28,454
because the engine only comes to life
after 5000 r. p. m.

385
00:21:28,538 --> 00:21:30,540
and cannot be used properly.

386
00:21:30,832 --> 00:21:32,959
Also, the back is very wide.

387
00:21:33,251 --> 00:21:36,838
But I'm glad I drove one.
and I promise you

388
00:21:36,921 --> 00:21:39,090
which is a formidable car.

389
00:21:39,298 --> 00:21:42,260
In many ways,
It is more satisfactory than the F40,

390
00:21:43,052 --> 00:21:44,053
but it's not better.

391
00:21:46,848 --> 00:21:50,101
The F40 is the supercar
to end all supercars.

392
00:21:50,476 --> 00:21:54,480
Although the engine is not atmospheric,
The turbocharger makes it more exciting.

393
00:21:54,939 --> 00:21:58,443
The only thing missing is sound,
but you must believe me when I say

394
00:21:58,526 --> 00:22:01,988
that sounds much better live
that in the video,

395
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,283
although the quality of the F50
is in a separate category.

396
00:22:05,908 --> 00:22:08,411
I could talk about this car all day.

397
00:22:08,786 --> 00:22:12,373
Oh really. Simply,
For me, it is the ideal car.

398
00:22:12,749 --> 00:22:14,751
On the street, on the track.

399
00:22:15,209 --> 00:22:16,586
Anywhere.
