Ferrari 360 Modena F1

The Ferrari 360 Modena F1 is one of the fastest cars you can buy, and with the exception of the Porsche 911 Turbo, it’s the quickest car available with an automatic transmission. This car will blast from a standstill to 60 mph in a tick over 4 seconds and rip through the quarter mile in 12.8 seconds at over 112 mph. There are only a few cars on the market, besides other Ferraris, that accelerate quicker. They are the aforementioned Porsche, the Lamborghini Diablo, the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the Lotus Esprit V8 and the Dodge Viper. These are also the only cars that can rival the 360’s 180+ mph top speed.

2003 Enzo

Ferrari is, above all else, a historical manufacturer of racing cars, but it also produces an incredible stable of street cars. Together, they handcraft limited-edition machines that redefine extreme sports-car possibilities: the ‘84 288 GTO, ‘87 F40, ‘95 F50, and now the ‘03 Enzo. Just 399 of them will be made, one each day. All have been purchased without so much as a test drive by Ferrari’s most preferred customers.

Ferrari Voted Best Place To Work

Most people when you ask them if they love their job will automatically say no. So maybe we should refer all those people to Ferrari. Apparently Ferrari is a great place to work and was even voted Best Place To Work in Europe 2007. They have already won the Italian title for this and are happy and proud to pick up the Europian one. This award is a powerful endorsement of the enormous organisational and financial commitment made by the company in recent years to providing its employees with the best possible working conditions and to encouraging personal and professional growth.

2006 612 Scaglietti

The 2006 612 Scaglietti was first introduced at the 2004 North American International Auto Show. The 612 Scaglietti 2+2 coupe is the successor to Ferrari’s 456M GT/GTA coupe. The 612 is named for Sergio Scaglietti, a coachbuilder in Modena, Italy, who worked with Enzo Ferrari in the early years of the company. With its 540-horsepower V-12, Ferrari says the coupe can accelerate from zero to 62 mph in 4.2 seconds. Other than trim and option revisions, little has changed for the 2006 model year.
