click above to view a few more pics of the Berg Ferrari FXX pedal car
Not everyone can afford a Ferrari FXX. Mind you, not everyone would want one if they could. But for those who do and don't have the seven figures to drop on the real deal, Berg Toys has created the Ferrari FXX of pedal cars. You know, for the kids.
Like the real deal, the FXX Racer pedal car comes equipped with a seven-speed transmission, an on-board computer, disc brakes, semi-slick racing tires and styling, which, as you can see, is modeled on Maranello's developmental track-car. For those to whom cost is no object, the FXX Exclusive (pictured above) upgrades with a premium racing bucket and four-point harness, leather steering wheel and even an aero kit. Berg, whose website is currently under construction, will be offering both models (€499 and €1499 respectively) through its own dealer network and through Ferrari dealerships starting next month. We don't know about you, but we'd love to see a drag race between this, the Bugatti and the Alfa Romeo pedal cars that we've reported on previously.

I can honestly say for the first time in my 48 years of existence, I really wish I was a kid again. I'd be the big man on the campus of my elementary school!

Yet another Ferrari I cant afford.

Since power (the kid) to weight (the vehicle) ratios should rule here, I'm betting on the Ferrari which is clearly the Lotus of this group. That said, in a long downhill run the superior aero of the Alfa might give it an edge.

you're kidding about the transmission, right?

We need to make note of this because it may be the precursor to the Formula 1 car for the year 2021 as a result of complete panic on the part of global warming zeolots who have risen to power by lying about what is really happening. Fernando Alonzo's son, Fernando the Duece, will be caught whining about not being treated as his team's numero uno driver even though he has yet to put Piloto to pedal.
