By the time you read this, the chocolate Ferrari F2008 you see above will be all gone, devoured by Ferrari owners with a sweet tooth. The full-scale model was made with 4,405lbs of Belgian chocolate and was on display at a Ferrari Owners Club event in Naples. Chocolate lovers needn't worry, for just $23,500 Ferrari would be happy to make you your very own. [Via World Car Fans]

Kimi looks like he wants to kill his agent for not getting him out of the dumbest photoshoot of his career.
Can they make it using the McLaren recipe? I like German chocolate better.
Impressive, it looks, real.
Rumor has it that Ferrari will be going "green" and racing Chocolate-powered cars next season.
@TheAstronot: Good one! Not sure about the "red" choc either.
Wonder what the total calorie stats were on that.
@Novaload: for all 4000+ lbs? Probably enough to ensure you didn't need to eat for the next 3 years and an immediate vaulting into Diabetes.
it's for satan, right?
watch little pieces of it go "missing" as the ferrari owners get hungry.
i wonder how long until the other teams protest? the groove-less tires are clearly illegal, and chocolate gets pretty sticky when you heat it... that's another competitive advantage. but everyone knows Bridgestone favors Ferrari...
@goatrope: what are you talking about that is the real car that he is in the pictures with.
With Ferrari's penchant for brand extension, 1/43 scale F430 Snickers on your grocers' shelves soon.
Mmmmmmmmmm nougat.
melts in your house, not on the track.
i seriously wish my N770 would let me log in here... b/c i had something to say that made me laugh pretty hard while at work... but i cannot remember now.....
had to do with the foil ferrari livery.. chocolate contained w/in being german or belgish (belgian) and relating back to the whole McLaren "spying" on ferrari/shared info... whatever..
so yeah.. it's not funny now b/c i cannot reproduce the comment... and it probably wouldn't have been funny anyways...
SO.. i'm lactose intolerant... how much do you think a soy "chocolate" version would cost??? or pure dark chocolate............
it is very hard to find chocolate in the US that is not adulterated in one way or another
(Sorry for the length of this comment)...
i have always enjoyed the fact that all of my ex GFs are spoiled... i always make a point to ruin their enjoyment of most hershey and all nestle chocolate within a few months of having dated them...
right... so i'm going to stop now b/c no on reads this site for shit like this
@chrystlubitshi: TL/DR
In any case, making the car out of choc makes more sense than making one out of matchsticks.
@Novaload: Either way, FIA has banned development of all Chocolate / matchstick F1 cars for the next couple of seasons to try and make the sport more competitive.
Chocolate Ferrari?
Sweet.
@chrystlubitshi: Judging by that, maybe it was a good thing your N770 didn't log you in...
Sorry. I'll go back to my corner now.
Ewww, hershey. blech!
But then, guess this would be awkward tasting cocolate as well, what with being italian and all.
chrystlubitshi, try a healthfood store and pick up some cacao beans! you can even get them organically grown, for minimal adulteration factor.
@maxman927: It wasn't done in time for satan's sweet 16, so he got a chocolate Acura instead.
At $5.34 a pound, it's not a bad deal. Godiva is more like $15 a pound.
@maxman927: He gets pissed if it's not a Ferrari, don't bring him no damn Acura. Very first thing that popped into my head.
Ferrari Rocher.
"Ambassador, you spoil us."
Next week, the Marserati.
Kimi sure does look happy to be there, doesn't he? Maybe it's because his name is Kimi. You know, kinda a 'boy named Sue' vibe there...
