Men love cars and my husband is no
exception; the design, sound, speed, and technology. As a boy his dream car was the Ferrari F40. The Ferrari Museum in
Maranello, Italy was a dream come true because amongst the collection of cars was an F40!

Ross & The Ferrari F40 |
Maranello, Italy and Ferrari: an
indissoluble pair that since 1943 has characterized the history and
image of the city. Enzo Ferrari designed and built all his road and
racing cars here. It is here that passion, innovation, and technology
are still joining together to create GT and Formula 1 cars, produced
by the most famous motor industry in the world.

The tour of the Ferrari Museum led us
through the world of Formula 1, GT, and Sport Prototype cars, which
made the history of Prancing Horse. Ferrari is a icon of
craftsmanship because every car is built by hand. The museum displays
about 40 models, selected on a rotating basis from amongst all of
Ferrari cars ever made.

Hall of Victories |
The amazing Hall of Victories
celebrates the most recent successes of the Ferrari racing team
through an overview of the world champion racers from 1999 to 2008,
together with over 110 trophies and the original helmets worn by the
driver.

I am not sure who enjoyed the museum
more Ross or myself. It tickled me to be able to bring one of his
childhood dreams to life.
