but those are F1. no Ferrari currently in production goes past 9k. the closest is the 360 modena, at 8600rpm (i think)

actually, the Ferrari Enzo Ferrari (hehehe, that name cracks me up so) may surpass the S2000 in rev wars, but it's not exactly as accessible as an S2000

F50 GT1 supposedly goes up to 10500 rpm. But it's not a production vehicle. There's only three of them around, I think.

I think it starts at 7000rpm then you can go up to 8000-8200 as the red lights disappears.

you mean you don't have US$1.1million sitting around for a car, IF you were asked by Ferrari if you wanted to purchase one?
