    Yep..I've been a passenger in one for a quick sprint...Amazing acceleration..You can't beat a low weight, high power & high grip combo...

    Your right on the interior. It's seriously, headache inducingly loud!!

    Huge turning circle, hard to get into & harder to get out of!!!!!

    Basically has race seats and suspension so get to know your chiropractor well...But it is a weapon!! Don't think Ferrari ever really intended as a daily driver however..

    Still, the best part for me was the piece of carbon/kevlar cord that you pull downwards to open the door!!!!

    $500,000+ (when sold in 1987) and you get a cord to open the door!!!!

    At least the McLaren F1 had a Kenwood stereo!!! Click here to enlarge

    And Jay Kay from Jamiroquai had a fellow band member crash his in the middle of Earls Court London a couple of years back....Quote to the paper:
