Showcasing the world of Ferrari encompassing their race cars, sports cars, and even lifestyle, this ultimate display of passion for the Prancing Horse serves as the regional debut of the new Ferrari supercar, the F80.

Several iconic racecars and sportscars headed straight from Ferrari's headquarters in Maranello, Italy to Bangkok, Thailand for the three-day event.

Showgoers saw the Ferrari F80 outside of Maranello for the very first time. Unveiled to the world last October, the F80 is the latest in Ferrari's line of supercars which includes illustrious models such as the F40, F50, and La Ferrari.

Distilling all Ferrari know-how into a single car, the F80 is the Prancing Horse's new benchmark when it comes to innovation and engineering excellence. Using a motorsport-derived V6 engine, it makes the most power of any production Ferrari ever: 1,200 horsepower—900 horsepower (and 850 Nm) of this is courtesy of the combustion engine, while three electric motors add a further 300 horsepower. With an 8-speed dual clutch and all-wheel drive, the F80 takes just 2.15 seconds to reach 100 km/h and 5.75 seconds to reach 200 km/h. Top speed? 350 km/h.
