This US YouTuber flew 6,000 miles to Maranello, Italy, for a $4,000,000 Ferrari F80 – and he wasn’t disappointed.
James, host of the YouTube channel STRAD, headed across the Atlantic Ocean to see the Ferrari.
To say he was excited would be an understatement.
And once he got to the Ferrari Factory in Maranello, his expectations were well and truly exceeded.

Flying 6,0000 miles to Italy for a $4,000,000 Ferrari F80
This US YouTuber was like a kid in a candy store driving around the Italian city of Maranello.
There were Lamborghinis and Ferraris galore, and he was beyond excited to see them up close.

But there was one car that he was particularly keen to lay his eyes on – the $4,000,000 Ferrari F80.
Stood with his girlfriend, Sophie, by the side of a road, the pair were engaged in some good old-fashioned car-spotting.
And they were spoilt for choice.
But the F80 was truly the most coveted car out of the bunch, even though life threw a slight spanner in the works.


You see, when the F80 was passing the nearby roundabout, a truck suddenly appeared and blocked their view.
Fortunately, Sophie managed to get a good shot of it.
“We’ve been waiting all week! You got to be kidding me!” James cried.
Sophie’s footage showed the red car departing the road and heading up a ramp, presumably back to the factory.


Fortunately, some other F80s passed by and gave the two a closer look.
A Ferrari spotted at any distance is still a treat in our books.
Taking a closer look at the F80
So what’s the big deal about the F80?
This hybrid sports car was made to celebrate the manufacturer’s 80th anniversary and served as a successor to the LaFerrari.
Ever since it launched, it’s received a ton of hype and attention.
It has an incredible new V6 engine, a departure from the iconic V12 that Ferrari usually goes with.
But despite all of that, it still barely makes a sound out there on the track while blasting at speeds of 218MPH.
