hah to be honest i was counting on your helpOriginally Posted by Napolis
it's not that one; i think the one i'm talking about is lead by two photographers, but i could be wrong... there's a pic of the p4/5 from directly fron angle, and another one 3/4 from rear in motion. i'm sure you know the guy
the website itself has black background and is in flash. i remember on f-chat some guys said it's the least functional website they've seen in years... apart from your car there are also many a photos of FXX in action and couple of F430 challenge, also some vintage ones and some others
there are also pics of non-ferrari cars and some bikes
hope you know what i'm talking about now

PREMAIR® OZONE-EATING TECHNOLOGY FEATURED
ON HIGH-END FERRARI SUPERCAR
PremAir catalyst now on more than 3 million vehicles worldwide
ISELIN, NJ, February 22, 2007 — BASF Catalysts’ PremAir® smog-reducing technology is now featured on a new, custom-built “supercar,” the Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina, a unique automobile based on a chassis of a 2003 Ferrari Enzo. This is PremAir’s first application on an exotic performance vehicle that reaches speeds of up to 233 mph.
The P4/5 was designed, engineered and built entirely by Pininfarina, a leading
design company within the automotive industry who has collaborated with Ferrari since 1952.
BASF Catalysts' PremAir technology is the first commercial product that destroys
harmful, ground-level ozone already in the air. When applied to heat-exchange surfaces, such as car radiators, PremAir effectively turns them into "smog eaters." The catalyst reduces ozone in the air that passes over coated surfaces by converting ozone molecules into oxygen molecules instantly upon contact.
PremAir destroys up to 80% of harmful, ground-level ozone in the air that passes
across it. Ground-level ozone is the main component of smog and is directly linked to respiratory problems and damage to vegetation.
“We’re excited to be involved with the development of the Ferrari P4/5 by
Pininfarina, one of Italy’s most exciting new high-performance cars,” said Erik Nielsen,
Product Development Engineering Manager, Environmental Technologies. “We are pleased that Pininfarina choose to incorporate a clean-air technology as unique as the vehicle itself.”
Since its launch, more than 3 million PremAir-equipped cars have been sold in the
US, Europe and Asia. BASF Catalysts’ breakthrough PremAir ozone-destruction catalysts are also featured on most Volvo cars, and on certain BMW, Mercedes and Hyundai models.
With a history dating back to 1930, Pininfarina is now one of the major suppliers of design, product and process engineering and manufacturing of niche vehicles on the automotive scene. Backed by the experience, creativity and innovation that have always been the hallmarks of its business, Pininfarina now acts as partner in product and interior design and extra-automotive means of transportation. Following the growth and internationalization of the Group, Pininfarina now has more than 3,000 employees, and facilities in Italy, France, Germany, Sweden, Morocco and China. The company’s customers include leading auto-makers.
BASF Catalysts, a division of BASF Corporation, is the world’s leading supplier of environmental and process catalysts. The group offers exceptional expertise in the development of technologies that protect the air we breathe, produce the fuels that power our world and ensure efficient production of a wide variety of chemicals, plastics, adsorbents and other products.

I have an aquaintance that has his 1984 Testerossa for sale. He states that it is the number one car that toured the country back in the day. he calls it a prototype but I know thats not correct. It was used to tour all of the dealerships back when the car first came out. I know for a fact that it has been stored for the last 7 years in a climate controlled wharehouse and it has only 14k on it. I believe it's getting painted but I'm not sure why. He has a bunch of paperwork that verifies his story but I lke to hear from the real experts, you guy's. I'm a Bimmer collector but this intrigues me, mostly the story. I have no idea what it's worth. anybody out there wanna chime in? [email protected]. thanks
Hey Jim, I've heard that you live in Westchester County, Bedford specifically. Is that true? If it is, will the car be comming to any of the area car shows? I only ask becasue I live in Somers myself and I would love to see the beast.
