I loved this book it was so amazing and included so many great interviews. And how it covered history without being overly long and repetitive about it makes this a great book for teens. At least that is what i think. I would definitely read this over and over again to no end as it is infinitely fascinating

Excellent book, and really like the scientific summary one-pagers with diagrams. Great mix of science and "legend" of great super cars. I don't know much about cars, and funnily, have near 0 interest in "supercars". However, I appreciate motorsport from the perspective of being a frontier for engineering. In that respect, great book for any audience really.

Nice, easy to read introduction to the world of supercars, with a bit of a focus on Bugatti lineup. Sometimes it feels a bit like advertising article for various tire and car brands. Overall an entertaining read.

Nice factual, chronological read on the evolution of cars and the automotive industry.
