KK Scale's \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-real-car\"\u003eFerrari F40: Forty Years of the Prancing Horse, One Engine, 478 hp\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnveiled 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-agnelli-car\"\u003eChassis 79883: The Valeo F40 and the Avvocato's Commission\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGianni 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-scale-model\"\u003eKK Scale's Die-Cast Interpretation at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKK 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 \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"in-the-display-cabinet\"\u003eIn the Display Cabinet: Dimensions and Collection Context\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KK SCALE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60084140736896,"sku":"KKDC180697","price":75.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-kkdc180697-front34-v2.jpg?v=1791580089","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/products\/ferrari-f40-black-interior-1987-personal-car-gianni-agnelli-red","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
