Finns
The terms Finns an Finnish fowk (suomalaiset, finnar (ethnic Finns), finländare (citizens o Finland)) are uised in Scots tae mean "a native or inhabitant o Finland". Thay are uised tae refer tae the ethnic group historically associatit wi Finland or Fennoscandie an aw, an thay are anerlie uised in that sense here.
As wi maist ethnic groups, the definition o Finns mey vary. In ivery definition, the term includes the Finnish-speakin population o Finland. The group can be seen tae include the Finnish-speakin population o Swaden an the tradeetionally Swadish-speakin population o Finland an aw, awtho the inclusion o the latter intae the Finnish ethnicity is a subject o discussion. Smawer populations that mey or mey no be seen tae faw unner the term Finns include the Kvens in Norawa, the Tornedalians o Swaden an the Ingrie Finns o Roushie. Finns can be dividit accordin tae dialect intae subgroups whiles cried heimo (lit. tribe), but sic diveesions hae acome less important wi internal migration.
Linguistically, Finnish, spoken bi maist Finns, is pairt o the Uralic leid faimily an is maist closely relatit tae ither Finnic leids sic as Karelie an Estonie, while Swadish, spoken bi Swadish-speakin Finns, is unrelatit tae the Finnish leid an a member o the Indo-European leid faimily. Finnish haes loanwirds frae Swadish, ither Germanic an broader Indo-European leids in different chronological layers while Swadish haes few loan wirds frae the Finnic leids. Some scholars hae argued that, genetically, Finns "hae been shown tae differ strikinly frae ither European populations". Housomeivver, thay hae a close genetic affinity tae ither Europeans; thair idiosyncratic fyndins bein attributable tae law population densitie in prehistory.

Ferrari F40
The Ferrari F40 is a mid-ingine, rear-wheel drive, twa-door coupé sports caur produced bi Ferrari frae 1987 tae 1992 as the successor tae the Ferrari 288 GTO. Frae 1987 tae 1989 it held the title as the warld's fastest street-legal production caur, an durin its years o production, wis Ferrari's fastest, maist pouerful, an maist expensive caur. The caur haed nae traction control, an wis ane o the few tae utilize turbochairgers.
The caur debuted wi a factory suggestit retail price o approximately US$400,000, awtho some buyers war reportit as payin as hintle as US$1.6 million. A tot o 1,315 F40s wur producit.
Concept
Ostensibly, the F40 wis no conceivit as the successor tae the 288 GTO an designed tae compete wi vehicles sic as the Porsche 959 an Lamborghini Countach; for Ferrari management, the vehicle wis a major statement piece. Ower a period o several years prior tae the F40's conception, the company's dominance in racin haed waned significantly, an even in Formula Ane, an arena thay haed ance dominatit, victories haed acome sparse. Enzo Ferrari haed recently turned 90 year auld, an wis keenly aware that time wis no on his side. He wantit his new sports caur tae serve as his feenal statement-maker, a vehicle encompassin the best in track-developed technology an capable o bein a showcase for what the Ferrari ingineers wur capable o creatin. The company's upcomin 40t anniversar providit juist the richt occasion for the car tae debut.
