# Ferrari F40 Black Interior Gianni Agnelli Personal Car 1987 Rosso Corsa KK Scale 1:18

> The only F40 ever built with a Valeo electronic clutch — ordered by Gianni Agnelli in 1989 — rendered in die-cast metal at 1:18 by KK Scale, with the defining black interior faithfully reproduced.

Among the 1,311 to 1,315 Ferrari F40s produced between 1987 and 1992, chassis 79883 occupies a category of its own. KK Scale's 1:18 scale model car captures the specific configuration of the car Gianni Agnelli ordered in 1989: Rosso Corsa bodywork over a bespoke black cloth cabin — a combination that exists on no other F40 in the production records.

## Ferrari F40: Forty Years of the Prancing Horse, One Engine, 478 hp

Unveiled in 1987 to mark Ferrari's 40th anniversary, the F40 was the last car personally approved by Enzo Ferrari. Its 2,936 cc twin-turbocharged V8 — the Tipo F120A — produced 478 hp at 7,000 rpm and 577 Nm at 4,000 rpm. The body, a mere eleven composite panels including large single-unit front and rear sections, kept dry weight to 1,100 kg, enabling a 324 km/h top speed and a 0–100 km/h time of 4.1 seconds. The wheelbase measured 2,450 mm, and overall length was 4,358 mm.

## Chassis 79883: The Valeo F40 and the Avvocato's Commission

Gianni Agnelli — the Avvocato, president and later chairman of FIAT, whose company acquired a 50% stake in Ferrari in June 1969 — ordered his F40 with two modifications that set it apart from every other example. A road accident had weakened his left leg, making a conventional twin-plate clutch impractical; Ferrari fitted a Valeo electro-hydraulic clutch actuation system, a unit previously proven on Lancia Delta Integrale rally cars, with its master control unit mounted on the firewall behind the passenger seat. Inside, Agnelli specified black cloth upholstery with a red lumbar support on the driver's seat, a spun aluminium gear knob, a cigarette lighter, and a leather document pouch embossed with his initials. The second owner acquired the car from the Turin Ferrari dealer with approximately 600 km on the odometer.

## KK Scale's Die-Cast Interpretation at 1:18

KK Scale — KK Scale GmbH, based in Senden, Germany — produces this model in die-cast metal, the material that delivers the weight and panel-line fidelity expected at 1:18. The key differentiator from the standard KK Scale F40 is the black interior, which mirrors the bespoke commission Agnelli placed. The model is listed as a limited edition, scheduled for release in Q4 2026, under manufacturer reference 180697R.

## In the Display Cabinet: Dimensions and Collection Context

At 1:18, the model measures approximately 24.0 cm in length, consistent with the F40's 4,358 mm real-world length divided by 18. That footprint suits a standard single-car display shelf with a minimum depth of 12 cm. Collectors building a KK Scale F40 sub-collection have a clear pairing with the standard red-interior variant and the Lightweight 1990 die-cast. For those drawn to the Agnelli narrative, this model sits alongside bespoke Ferrari commissions — the F40 Valeo represents a documented, verifiably unique chassis, not a livery variant or a race result, but a piece of factory history with a named owner and a paper trail back to Turin.
