Cars


Ferrari
Ferrari has become unanimous with speed and prestige and elegance. The sight of it speeding away and vanishing at the horizon evokes admiration and at the same time jealousy from the not-so-lucky guys. After all it is people’s envy and owner’s pride. Enzo Ferrari might not have thought that his car would, one day, become so popular. Ferrari cars, are one of the most wanted vechiles on the planet, usually due to both the compaines and vechiles reputations, they are also regarded as a sybmol of success in certain parts of the world.
Mr Enzo Ferrari, first started his career as a small carmaker but soon took up car racing. The war provided him some surplus money and combining this with his income from racing prize, he started up a car making factory of his own at Modena.
At the height of the Second World War, Enzo Ferrari moved his workshop from Modena to Maranello. However, due to constant bombardment of the allied forces against Italy, his dream factory turned into rubbles. This could not finish off Enzo Ferrari’s dream. In 1946, the factory was again rebuilt and work soon began on the 125 Sport, the first ever Ferrari motorcar. Enzo Ferrari did not intend to build road cars, when he formed the Scuderia Ferrari in 1929. He did this as a sponsorship for amateur drivers.
