Supercars: A Celebration of Iconic Marques (Classic Cars and Bikes Collection)
By Devon Bailey
Owning a supercar is the ambition of most young boys but achieving the dream becomes a reality for only a small minority given the cost of these magnificent creatures and the small numbers that are manufactured. Sometimes, though, the limited production runs will preclude even the wealthiest of motoring enthusiasts from acquiring their dream car. Yet, the fact that these thoroughbreds are beyond the financial reach of the majority does not stop the drooling. Posters adorn bedroom walls, clips on social media websites are devoured with an insatiable hunger, and the occasional sighting on the roads provides instant excitement.The supercar has experienced an evolutionary journey, with companies exploring the application of race-derived engineering, aerodynamic styling, and hybrid technology. The engineering development of added aesthetic value and impressive track specifications have played a huge role in the automotive market of supercars, both beneath the hood and on the exterior. Regardless of whether you would be able to push these supercars to the limit on the roads, they are still considered objects of beauty and are held in esteem for the precision engineering and dynamic styling that goes into their construction. This publication profiles some of the most inspired and desired supercars the automotive industry has ever seen.
