The Definitive Ferrari Compendium Never before has a single volume so comprehensively chronicled the extraordinary legacy of Ferrari. This landmark publication presents an exhaustive inventory of every model officially certified by Ferrari since its founding in 1947, from legendary icons such as the 250 GTO, Dino 246 GT, 330 P4, F40, and Ferrari Enzo to the lesser-known yet equally fascinating Sigma and Ferrarina. For the first time, Ferrari's complete production history-spanning more than 600 models and special editions-is gathered in one authoritative reference. This book offers an unparalleled exploration of: * Every road car, whether produced in series, as a limited edition, or as an exclusive one-off, with meticulous documentation of every variant and body style. * Every racing machine, from endurance prototypes to grand touring legends, detailing their evolutions, adaptations, and triumphs on the world's most demanding circuits. * Every Formula 1 and Formula 2 single-seater, along with adaptations for the Tasman Series and Indianapolis. * Every design study and concept car crafted by Ferrari or visionary independent designers. Structured chronologically, each model is accompanied by period photographs, archival documents, and expertly curated imagery of rare collector's pieces. Every entry is richly detailed, covering technical specifications, production figures, and chassis numbers. Under the expert guidance of historian Serge Bellu, this work not only catalogs Ferrari's engineering mastery but also offers an insightful perspective on the evolution of its design language. An essential addition to the library of any Ferrari enthusiast, collector, or connoisseur of automotive excellence.
