Ferrari F80 — First in the United States
Total System Output — V-6 Hybrid
For those who associate Ferraris with sensuous curves — the F80 is a surprise. Its aerodynamics are derived directly from the all-conquering 499P Hypercar, the three-time Le Mans winner. The focus is not on looks. It is on using every molecule of airflow over the car's surface to increase downforce.
Made fully of carbon fiber, the F80 utilizes an active rear wing, an active reverse Gurney Flap, a triplane front wing, an "S" Duct, NACA ducts, and airflow generators. The F80 has the narrowest cabin of any Ferrari ever built — the driver sits F1 style. The passenger has space, but no seat. Just a hollowed out, padded space in the firewall.
The V-6 engine is the same lineage first used by Ferrari to win the Formula One Championship in 1961 — still utilized in Ferrari's current F1 cars and the 499P Hypercar.
2.9× more downforce than the previous Ferrari supercar. At speed, the F80 pushes itself into the ground with the weight of a full-size truck.
An invitation-only gathering of 150 to 200 guests — collectors, enthusiasts, and those who understood what they were witnessing — came together at a private Scottsdale estate for an evening unlike any other.
What they saw was not just a car. It was the first Ferrari F80 in the United States — the sixth Ferrari supercar in history. A machine conceived on the world's greatest racetracks and built to honor 80 years of a name that has never stopped racing.
When the drape fell, the room fell silent. Then the phones came out. Then the questions started. But for one single moment — the moment before the flash — everyone in that room just looked.
Tim DeMore was the force behind this evening — the man who made this night possible, bringing together 150 guests at a private Scottsdale estate to witness history. A devoted collector and one of Ferrari's most trusted VIP clients, Tim holds the rare distinction of first selection on Ferrari's newly released models — a privilege extended only to a handful of collectors worldwide.
That relationship with the Prancing Horse, built over decades, is what put the first Ferrari F80 in the United States in this room, on this night.
