In 1987, Enzo Ferrari signed off on his final road car — a 201-mph middle finger to comfort, built to celebrate Ferrari's 40th anniversary. Three years later, a handful of Ferrari's wealthiest customers asked for something meaner still. The result was the F40 Competizione: ten cars, 700 horsepower apiece, the standard F40 stripped and sharpened into a track weapon.

In 2019, the LEGO® Speed Champions design team translated the F40 Competizione into a 200-piece desktop hero. Before we dig into the build, here's the car it's representing — and why it matters.

THE TRACK VARIANT

Ferrari F40 Competizione

Ten cars, 700 horsepower apiece, built by Michelotto on the F40 platform

The F40 was built for one reason: to celebrate 40 years of Ferrari, and to do it with absolutely no compromise. It was the last road car Enzo Ferrari personally approved before his death in 1988, and it shows. The cabin is a plastic-lined box with pull-cord door handles. The chassis is lightweight tubular steel. The body is Kevlar and carbon-fibre composite. Ferrari's brief to Pininfarina was simple — build the fastest road car in the world.

They did. Between 1987 and 1992, Ferrari built around 1,311 F40s. Each one was powered by a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing roughly 478 horsepower, good for 0–60 mph in about 3.8 seconds and a top speed hovering just over 200 mph — making it the first road-legal production car to break the 200-mph barrier.

The F40 Competizione is the F40 turned up to eleven. Ten were built at customer request, with tuning and race-prep work carried out by Michelotto — the same Padua-based shop that converted the F40 into the GTE cars which dominated the BPR Global GT Series in the mid-90s. The first two Competiziones were originally designated F40 LMs before Ferrari renamed the remaining eight. The twin-turbo V8 was pushed to roughly 700 PS (691 hp) at 8,100 rpm. Top speed rose to around 367 km/h (228 mph). No two Competiziones are quite the same.

Engine: 2.9L twin-turbo V8
Power: ~700 PS (691 hp)
Top speed: ~367 km/h (228 mph)
Built: 10 cars, 1989–1990

Display ideas

Single universal stand. Lifts the model clear of the shelf and shows off the engine bay from a 3/4 angle — the F40's strongest viewing line.
Multi-set Ferrari shelf. Group the F40 with the FXX K, F14 T, and LaFerrari — all 6-stud, all Ferrari, all roughly the same footprint.

People

The F40 didn't just attract buyers with money — it attracted buyers who understood what they were buying. A handful of names stand out.

Nigel Mansell

F1 WORLD CHAMPION, F40 OWNER

Gifted his F40 by Enzo Ferrari himself when he signed from Williams in 1988, making Mansell the last driver Enzo personally chose before his death. The car (chassis 80022) later sold for £1 million in 1990 — a record at the time.

Gianni Agnelli

FIAT CHAIRMAN, F40 OWNER

Commissioned a one-off with a Valeo electronic clutch because an old leg injury made a standard gearbox impossible. His Rosso Corsa example (chassis 79883) now sits in the Museo Enzo Ferrari in Modena.

Nick Mason

PINK FLOYD DRUMMER, F40 OWNER

Took delivery at Fiorano in July 1988 alongside bandmate David Gilmour. Mason still owns chassis 78122, painted with a Union Jack on the bonnet and the plate 'F40 NPF' (F40, Nick, Pink Floyd). He wrote about it in his 1998 book Into the Red.

Eric Clapton

MUSICIAN, F40 OWNER

Bought a 1991 example and kept it for years before it passed through auction in the 2010s at around US$1.1 million.

Jay Kay

JAMIROQUAI, F40 OWNER

Ordered his new in grey, had the Jamiroquai logo stitched into the steering wheel, and named the car Miss Whiplash.

The build

Scale and era

75890 was released in 2019, which puts it squarely in the final year of the original 6-stud LEGO® Speed Champions scale. From 2020 onwards, LEGO® Speed Champions cars shifted to the current 8-stud width, which is two studs wider and lets designers pack more bodywork detail per car, with fewer stickers and better proportions.

If you're building a shelf of pre-2020 sets, the F40 Competizione slots in cleanly alongside the FXX K (75882), the F14 T (75913), and LaFerrari (75899). If your collection is 8-stud — F8 Tributo (76895) onwards — expect the F40 to look a touch slimmer and blockier on the shelf.

Build highlights

The signature rear clamshell wing is the most recognisable cue on any F40, and the designers nail the silhouette even at 6-stud scale. The exposed rear engine bay under a clear panel is a direct callback to the real F40's perspex engine cover. Front NACA ducts and the low-slung nose are rendered with angled slope pieces. The Rosso Corsa red torso carries a Ferrari prancing-horse print on the included race driver minifig (fig-001920), plus a colour-matched race helmet.

What the 200 pieces buys you

200 is a small count even by LEGO® Speed Champions standards, but the set is built to display rather than to play. No pull-back motors, no flick-fire details — just a clean, static supercar with a race driver that fits in the cockpit. Brick-built wing mirrors (a LEGO® Speed Champions staple from 2019 onwards) sharpen the profile, and the wheels are the standard hub with Ferrari-appropriate black tyres.
