Built to the more powerful GTC specifications, the LM was further equipped with the highly desirable Lexan plexiglass sliding side windows and finished in the characteristic Rosso Corsa paint over seats trimmed in Stoffa Vigogna (cloth upholstery). Following factory completion in December 1992, the spectacular LM was delivered a few months later to the buyer, the late marque collector Walter Hagmann of St. Moritz, Switzerland, who also owned a 275 GTB/4 and an F50, among other important Prancing Horses. Mr. Hagmann obviously embraced the prodigious competition machine with zeal, as he was involved in a minor crash during a private testing session at the Mugello Circuit in May 1993. Michelotto quickly repaired the limited rear-end damage, and the car was then featured in the July 1993 issue of the Swiss enthusiast magazine Auto Illustrierte. In October 1993 the F40 commenced a long record of event participation with its appearance at the Ferrari Club Italia meet at Mugello, followed by display at the Motor Classic Show in Zurich in February 1998. Hagmann sold the LM to a fellow Swiss enthusiast in 2002, only to buy it back and resell it in 2007 to a financier in Munich who worked for Ferrari Financial Services. This owner enjoyed the remarkable F40 at numerous Shell Ferrari/Maserati Historic Challenge events over the next eight years, including runs at Monza, Italy; Le Vigeant, France; Brno, Czech Republic; and Valencia, Spain. Perhaps most notably, in April 2009 the F40 LM was factory-certified by Ferrari Classiche, authenticating the presence of the matching-numbers engine, transaxle, and coachwork. The physical Red Book no longer accompanies the car, but a digital PDF of the Ferrari Classiche certification pages is on file. The only noted change to the car in the 2009 certification was that the car’s original wheels had been changed to larger, but slightly narrower, OZ magnesium wheels, which remain on the car today. Around this time following certification, the LM reportedly was returned to Michelotto for engine upgrades. In 2014 the Ferrari was again returned to Michelotto for a thorough freshening, and the car’s original build/tuning operation overhauled the engine and gearbox, performed minor coachwork repairs, and refinished the exterior in the correct original color. A year later the highly authentic F40 LM was purchased by an investment developer in Las Vegas, and he kept the car for five years before it was sold to a German dealer, from whom it later passed to an Austrian collector. Under present ownership the F40 LM was shown at the 2025 ModaMiami concours held at The Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Florida, where it naturally drew the attention of many discerning tifosi, winning the Ferrari: Passion and Performance Collection class award. In preparation for its current offering, the Ferrari has undergone a major service by Rosso Corsa Inc. of Jupiter, Florida, completed in June 2025. This work included the replacement of the fuel bladders, timing and accessory belts, spark plugs, and fuel filters. A new battery was installed, and the wheels were shod with new Michelin Pilot Sport GT Slick S7M tires. Invoices on file reflect this work, which totaled an investment of over $67,000».
