Ferrari Has Become Unanimous With Speed - Prestige And Elegance
Ferrari is an Italian sports car manufacturer based in Maranello and Modena, Italy. Ferrari cars have been made since 1970, with its speed and elegance epitomised and embodies the ethos of it's founder Enzo Ferrari.
Ferrari prepared and successfully raced various drivers in Alfa Romeo cars until 1938, when he was officially hired by Alfa as head of their racing department.
A Ferrari is suposed to be black,red,or yellow. The original Ferrari color was yellow and not Red as many people think.

A Ferrari is, to many, more than just a car: it is a work of art. It is like no other car in the world, the smell of the leather, the sound of the exhaust, nothing comes close.
A Ferrari is typically not a car to drive on a daily basis, but it certainly can be driven often, giving the owner a sense of pride and a taste of the Ferrari mystique.
Ferrari road cars, noted for magnificent styling by design houses like Pininfarina, have long been one of the ultimate accessories for the rich. Ferrari is the oldest team left in the championship, not to mention the most successful: the team holds nearly every Formula One record. Ferrari has used the cavallino rampante on official company stationery since 1929. Ferrari's first models were sports/racing cars quite different from the grand touring models that followed. Ferrari quickly moved into the Gran Turismo market, and the bulk of the company's sales remain in this area. Ferrari entered the mid-engined 12-cylinder fray with the Berlinetta Boxer in 1971. Ferrari street cars have a badge that is similar to Ferrari’s racing badge. Ferrari car's quality and reliability is legendary and with Charles Hurst' heritage and service expertise provided by our Ferrari car dealers you need look no further.
In the mid 1990s, Ferrari added the letter "F" to the beginning of all models (a practice quickly abandoned after the F512M and F355, but recently picked up again with the F430). The Ferrari F430 is a two-seater that is available in two forms; the Berlinetta and the Spider. The F430 has been produced since 2004 and production continues to date.

The Ferrari F2008 is a Formula One motor racing car, which Scuderia Ferrari is using to compete in the 2008 Formula One season.
It is the fifty fourth single-seater built by the Italian team and the design is code named as "659". The car was unveiled to the public on January 6, 2008.
After winning last years' Constructer's Championship, Ferrari made this new car to meet the new regulations of F1. There are quite a few notable changes in the car:
1. Introduction of a new electronic system to be used by all teams, known as SECU (Standard Electronic Control Unit) and produced by MES (McLaren Electronic Systems.)
It removes most of the driver aids used in previous seasons, including engine braking, traction control and electronically assisted starting system.
However it has some benefits as well: It has made management of the differential, engine and gear changes pretty much easier.
2. The wheelbase and weight distribution have been adapted to meet the challenge of the new regulations and on the basis of lessons learned last year in terms of the performance of the Bridgestone tyres.
3. The car also weighs more than last season's F2007 chassis due to rule changes which includes the gearbox which has to be used for four consecutive races, higher side protection around the drivers helmet etc.
The gearbox casing is produced in carbon, while the transmission continues to be mounted longitudinally.
