The A-Z Guide to Supercars:

EVO magazine has published another of their "MagBooks", but this one is a compact book, landscape format, 8-1/4 x 5-3/4.

It lists over 100 of what they consider "Supercars", in an average of 2 pages each, though individual coverage ranges from 1 to 4 pages. Each entry has text, several photos and a specification table.

Ferrari has the largest coverage, with some 35 of the book's 218 pages, and that doesn't include the separate entry for the Pininfarina P4/5. So what does EVO consider a Ferrari "supercar"? Of course, the four cars generally considered to fit that description are here, but so are ALL of the 12-cylinder 2-seat production cars from the Daytona to the new F12, and ALL of the 8-cylinder 2-seaters from the 308 through the 458! Even the much-derided FF makes an appearance. Personally, I don't consider my 328 to be a "supercar", but if EVO wants to think that it is, I ain't complaining!

If you're wondering, all of the 12-cylinder Lamborghinis from the Miura onward are included, along with the unique Reventon and Aventador J, and the only smaller Lambo in the book is the current Gallardo. Porsches include expected entries like the 959, Carrera GT and the new 918 Spyder; 911 variants include the Turbo and the GT2 RS, though quite a few Ruf cars based on the 911 are also in the book, along with the remarkable Dauer 962 and 9ff GT9R.

The other cars range from the Ascari KZ1 to the Zenvo ST1. I can't argue too much with what cars are included or aren't, but the coverage seems complete enough to me. (One might argue that the Ferrari SuperAmerica and SuperFast were "supercars", and the 250 SWB and GTO might qualify if you don't think of them primarily as race cars.) The book is a bit pricey for its size ($19.99 in the U.S.), but I thought enough of it to buy one.
