    It was 10GBP, soft cover but very nicely done. I picked it up at a news stand here in town which I think was a fluke.

    I've seen it at both Borders and Barnes & Noble here in the U.S., though not necessarily in every store.

    Didnt count the pages but its about 3/4 inch thick. It doesnt cover 308/328 or boxer (oddly) but it covers the dino - it aint a supercar. So ignore the supercar heading and just think of it as a good read on several models including the 599. It also talks about enzo and dino, what I found interesting is Gozzi dismisses dino himself as the one responsible for the V6 dino engines. I had heard that before but its right from Gozzi in an interview.

    Hi Germain,

    The SWB in this magazine is a yellow one with bumperettes and is pictured in a studio with the red/black stripe TdF s/n 1385 GT and the silver GTO s/n 4153 GT. It doesn't have a roll cage but I suspect it is s/n 2111 GT. Most of the articles in this magazine were taken from earlier issues of Octane and Evo magazines.

    Thanks Peter,
    Yes this SWB is s-n 2111GT (yellow) and this article has been published in Octane Magazine - issue #16 - October 2004.
    But also Automobiles Classiques #102 Novembre 1999 - and in the Tour Auto 2002 program.

    This is an excellent book. But if you buy either Octane or EVO on a regular basis, you will recognize some of the articles from those two magazines.

    My complaint is the price: where I live it is $34 CDN in every store that sells it. Given that our dollar is on par with USD, it bothers me to see the price there as $20.
