- a profusely illustrated book on some of Ferrari's very best road vehicles !
For more than 60 years, Ferrari has produced cars to fire the imaginations of car lovers worldwide. A stellar combination of beauty, performance, racing success,
exclusivity, and Italian flair have combined to make Ferrari the world's most iconic carmaker.
All these traits coalesce in the form of Ferrari's top sports cars, vehicles so startling in their performance capabilities that they surpass"mere" supercars, hence the term hypercar. In the case of modern Ferraris, these are the 288GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, FXX, and the new La Ferrari.
All of these are ultimate cars. They were collector vehicles from the moment they rolled off the production line, though that was never the reason for their creation. Beneath their startling shapes lie chassis and powerplants bristling with the best technology of their respective eras, all the better to unleash these cars' mind-bendingperformance capabilities. The most recent models in this lineup are capable of dashing 0-60 miles per hour in under three seconds and hitting top speeds of 220 miles per hour.
Author Winston Goodfellow focuses on the modern-era cars but reaches back to the 1950s and '60s to establish their lineage, referencing such early supercars as the 340 America, 375 MM, 410 SA, and 365 Daytona.
Ferrari Hypercars offers Ferrari owners and fans the only book to focus on Maranello's most exclusive and high-profile cars of the modern era. With exclusive interviews, rare historic images, and stellar contemporary photography, it's a Ferrari history like no other.
