    I have one....it is exhaustive, full of infomation , pictures, history, and everything else.....however, if you are looking for a well produced, nicley laid out book. This is not it.
    Still, if you are even the remotest Ferrari fan, you should have it.
    Not a ground breaking book, but everything is in there up to a point. I think it is current up until the 360.
    Should not be hard to get from Chaters, or Mill House books in the UK.

    I have a copy. Reading it would be about as exciting as reading the dictionary. However, if you are looking for a reference book it should be fine. The price on your link seems very high. I paid USD100 for my copy from Auto Barn while at Concorso Italiano last year.

    It's called "Ferrari Opera Omnia" as far as I know. Here's a screenshot of the page..

    Pinin30...thanks. I own Ferrari Opera Omnia. In my opinion, it's a great book and well worth the $. Be aware that there is a new edition, 1947-2002 (I have the '47-'00 version).
