Ferrari has unveiled J50 during a special celebration held at the National Art Center in Tokyo to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Ferrari in Japan. The limited edition two-seater roadster marks the return of the targa body style, evocative of several well-loved Ferrari road cars of the 1970s and 1980s.

Similar changes at the rear elicit an additional 50 per cent in downforce at speed while reducing drag  by 400 per cent. The Italian brand has followed the likes of Porsche and Ferrari by introducing four-wheel-steering on its flagship model in an effort to improve agility at lower speeds and stability on the interesting side of 200km/h. It also borrows active suspension from the limited-edition Aventador SV, which could make the regular Av
