Watch a Ferrari F50 get kickstarted in Brazil

A video went viral in South America not long ago featuring an ultra-rare Ferrari F50 kickstarted as if it were a bike of some kind.

In the footage, a group of people push the gorgeous red F50 onto the road and continue accelerating it down the lane, after which the engine finally jerks to life. One of the participants then gives the driver a signal to launch, and the driver does so after a brief wheelspin.

The description claims it is the only F50 in Brazil, and its price amounts to 30,000,000 Rial (U.S. $5,700,000). Classic.com suggests that the current average price of an F50 is a fair bit lower – around $3,850,000 – but, as is often the case with automotive exotics, it is probably just a matter of time before it goes up again.
