Every Major Supercar Brand Ranked Worst To Best – SlashGear

Italian automaker Ferrari, known for its prancing horse logo, is possibly the most recognized maker of sports cars in the world. Founded by Enzo Ferrari, the company originally built cars for sale to raise funds for his racing team, Scuderia Ferrari. The cars proved to be incredibly popular, and the success of his Colombo V12 engine, which stayed in production from 1947 to 1989, paved the way for Ferrari automobiles to become the finest sports cars in the world.

Early Ferrari models were mostly roadsters that were followed by several grand touring cars through to the ’60s. Yet, when Lamborghini released the Miura, Ferrari had to respond quickly. In 1968, Ferrari manufactured a mid-engine car, but it had a modestly powered V6 – only 180 horsepower — and was sold under the Dino brand. But in 1973, the Berlinetta Boxer arrived with a 380-horsepower flat-12 engine behind the seats, beginning a long line of excellent Ferrari supercars. This would be followed by legends such as the Testarossa, F40, F50, Enzo, LaFerrari, and, currently, the SF90 Stradale.

Ferrari has made a wide range of superb and finely crafted machines for decades now, including some that have become among the most valuable cars in the world — a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO sold in 2018 for $48 million. Furthermore, its supercars are of the highest caliber, performing at levels that test the limits of physics itself. All the while, Ferrari has maintained styling and design that make its cars immensely appealing with a blend of classic lines and modern sophistication. Quite simply, there is no car in the world quite like a Ferrari.
