I haven't posted here in a while, and I need to update everyone on some beautiful Italian cars that have come up in recent days.
To start, we have this amazing piece of machinery to look forward to:
In the future, Ferrari will have more fuel efficient cars without cutting down on performance. Hard to believe, isn't it? The main goal is to cut emissions by
40%
And here's a look back to Ferrari's glory days as well for good measure:
Scary to think about racing that car around a track with an orignal GTO when its worth nearly 4 million dollars!
Interesting fact, I learned why Italy's motorcars are predominantly red. Back in the early 1900's when auto racing was in its infancy, an American entrepenuer decided to form an international race, with Germans, Italians, and British companies entering their cars. Out of respect for the Americans who created the event, Italians chose red to represent their cars and America. The British chose green since the event took place on Irish soil, and Germans chose silver, although I am not exactly sure as to why they did choose that color.
More to come later!
