If you don't mind the style it is written in, it has some interesting facts and great photos. It could do with a bit more editing in places, it completely overlooks cars from Koeniggsegg which I think should have been there given the cars it was covering, and it makes a mess of the Honda NSX chapter. The NSX chapter was in the up to 1991 section, and so should cover the Gen 1 version. Although mentioned, all of the pictures are of the Gen 2 version from a decade and a half later, and the text concentrates on it, which is a shame, as the original NSX was a novel car at the time which had input from the likes of Ayrton Senna - the Gen 2 is a much more anonymous car.
Features a collection of fast car from different eras which includes Lamborghini, various Ford GT40, Porsche 959, and more. Jay Leno chimes in with thoughts.
