Synopsis
This volume is the ultimate sports car anthology, featuring 50 of the most remarkable and desirable models of all time, from the landmark 1912 Stutz Model A Bear Cat to the radical 2020 McLaren Speedtail. Each example is presented in stunning imagery by the world's leading car photographers., For the seasoned car collector or the awestruck newcomer, this volume is the consummate sports car anthology. Bringing together 50 of the most exquisite, desirable, and adrenaline-charging sports cars of all time , it recounts the enthralling endeavors in automotive design and engineering in pursuit of optimum dynamic performance for both road and track. This expertly curated roundup of glorious, high-speed two-seaters includes both all-out sports racers as well as their street-legal homologated brethren. Indeed, some of the most desirable cars across all auto-collecting genres are from the glorious golden era of sports car racing, which existed up until the late 1960s. In that time, gentleman privateers would drive their cars to a competition event, such as the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans , race them hard-perhaps winning their class or even the race-before coolly driving them home again. Showcasing 50 of the most sought-after sports cars ever created, from the 1912 Stutz Model A Bear Cat and the 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B MM Spider to the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR "Uhlenhaut Coupé" -the world's most expensive car-and the 1962/64 Ferrari 250 GTO Series II, this volume is an automobilia treasure trove . Each fabled model is presented with lavish spreads , complete with imagery taken by the world's leading car photographers alongside rare archival gems, from original factory photos to famous motorsports event posters. Each entry is also accompanied by expert descriptive texts and specs, tapping into the authors' transatlantic expertise and insider knowledge., For the seasoned car collector or the awestruck newcomer, this volume is the consummate sports car anthology.

- 8***5 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI didn't see a verbal description of this book as "hardcover" or paperback. Cover design and price were similar to both cover styles. I thought I'd left a question for the seller, but I may have done something wrong. The package was too small to match the hardcovers previously received so I returned it unopened. Seller was very efficient, and packaging offered excellent protection. Haven't checked to see if refund was processed.
