Can Ferrari DO No Wrong? No They Can’t Just Look At The J50
Auto News
We must admit we’re no Ferrari cheerleaders but this limited edition production car has given us plenty to cheer about on what is a damp, dark, overcast, miserable, deplorable, dank, damn day. When you set your eyes on the J50, it’s an instant classic, no explanation needed because you know its something special. ferrari-j50-stunning-dailycarblog-top Based on the 488 Spider, the J50 is limited to 10 examples, it’s been specially commissioned by Ferrari to celebrate 50 years of Ferrari in Japan with each example being tailored to customer requirements. Powered by a specifically tuned version of  the 3.9-litre V8 turbo, the J50 has an increase of 20bhp over the 488 equating to 681bhp. It’s going to be quick, no need for stats. ferrari-j50-stunning-dailycarblog-interior Why? because the J50 is all about the styling, it’s a roadster/targa /Barchetta kind of look with hints of 308 GTB styling influence at the front. Or maybe the 288 GTO. Ferrari say “…the black dividing line is a novel interpretation of a recurring Ferrari styling cue seen on iconic models such as the GTO, F40 and F50.” ferrari-j50-stunning-dailycarblog-profile Circling around the front of the car below knee height, it is a key element which alters the perception of the beltline, setting it at a much lower height than usual, transforming the J50 into a barchetta. The rear diffuser features an extractor shape inspired by jet engine afterburners and 20” forged rims were designed specifically for this limited-edition model. Along with aerodynamic modifications the Ferrari J50 is an instant hit, but only 10 will ever be made and when Ferrari make such limited edition cars they will not only be sold out instantly they will be sold at a considerable profit for sure. Lets say £500k, easy.  ferrari-j50-stunning-dailycarblog-front
