However, the aura of Ferrari does indeed approach the miraculous. What lies behind this phenomenon? What is the source of fascination for a brand whose creative designs are internationally recognised and enthusiastically received? First, even today -- 70 years after the company was founded -- the miracle of Ferrari is still due in large part to the personality of Il Commendatore, Enzo Ferrari. Patience, passion, and being hard on himself and those around him gave the brand, under the emblem of the Cavallino Rampante, the power to become what it is today: sheer fascination on four wheels. Second, the long list of international racing victories is equally important. There is no class, no competition, that Ferrari did not set its sights on and win more or less immediately during the company's last 70 years. Finally, Ferrari is synonymous with aesthetics, elegance, and trend-setting design. The true value of a brand and its products is measured in the currency of impassioned devotion. This is the third and perhaps most vital element confirming the Ferrari miracle: The Ferrari Book - Passion for Design traces the evolution of the miracle and lets us experience passion given automotive form in a large and engrossing format. Text in English, German, French and Italian.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49739262394641,"sku":"NGR9783961710201","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51285294186769,"sku":"NIN9783961710201","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51727921086737,"sku":"GOR010917150","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52687984754961,"sku":"NLS9783961710201","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3961710201.jpg?v=1751222641"},{"product_id":"lamborghini-book-book-michael-kockritz-9783961715114","title":"The Lamborghini Book","description":"- A lavish and entertainingly informative coffee-table book celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Lamborghini brand - With a comprehensive look at the significance of the brand for pop-cultural and automotive history - Lamborghinis are cars for personalities - this coffee-table book is for true sports car enthusiasts Just in time for the 60th birthday of the Italian luxury super sports car brand, the monumental anniversary coffee-table book The Lamborghini Book by editor and founder of ramp magazine Michael K ckritz is published.
