Ferrari: The Legend

This fascinating book brings you all the thrills of Ferrari road cars with superb color photographs and informative, detailed text and specifications for each model. This book covers the cars built by Ferrari for the road but inevitably these overlap with some GT racers which have, therefore, also been included.

Similar to Porsche the legend I didnt get this for my birthday many years ago but my brother did. There is something special about Ferrari's, they have this aura about them, I presence. If you have ever had the pleasure of standing or sitting inside an F40 or Testarossa you will know what I mean. The interiors arent good, the steering wheel placement is uncomfortable for everyone but man you just have to take a minute to stop and just stare at them and realise it just didnt matter because its still fantastic.
Ferrari is the most recognisable car brand there is, theres tribes that have never met another human before that know what a Ferrari is, that prancing horse carries a prestige that nothing can come close to. Its an arrogance, they are a type of brand that will flaunt their grandeur simply because they can.
This book celebrates all that Ferrari have achieved, countless stunning cars all packaged together in 80 pages. I look back at it and its just crazy to think how many times they nailed it and the birth of what is now the most expensive car in the world the 250 gto once of which were let go by some blokes grandad for a couple thousand. Poor sod didnt realise that 3 decades later the car would go for tens of millions.
This book due to its age is going for cheap everywhere, its great for adults as there is a nice amount of stats and background on the cars and the kids should hopefully like the pictures of the cars, if they don't then fair enough I understand I prefer Porsche as well.
