V12 that, in turn, powered the F1-90 to six wins in the 1990 season, when Alain Prost claimed five victories and Nigel Mansell one.Launched in 1995 to celebrate Ferrari’s 50th anniversary, the F50 was designed to deliver a pure, unfiltered driving experience by bridging the gap between road cars and Ferrari’s Formula 1 technology. It’s not just a supercar—it’s a piece of Ferrari’s racing DNA, wrapped in a road-legal package.At its debut, the ferrari f50 price was $475,000, but its limited production run and the increasing popularity of the ferrari brand over time has driven collectors’ model values far higher.
