The Ferrari began Italian Enzo Ferrari’s establishment of the Scuderia Ferrari in 1929 to provide sponsorship for the Modena-based amateur car racers. Its founder, successfully raced drivers in Alfa Romeos until he learned of Alfa Romeo’s intent to purchase Scuderia. This forced Enzo to carry on with Scuderia Ferrari on his own. It was a result of the need to finance the Scuderia that he actually reluctantly sold the very first Ferrari, dubbed the 125 S, in the year 1947 which begin the huge Ferrari sports car empire.
The fastest Ferrari sports car to date is the 2002 Ferrari ENZO. The entire body’s shape is to create effective aerodynamics and reduce drag. The Ferrari ENZO is a testament to its Formula 1 participation, creating a statement both on the fast sports car lists and on the race track. Beginning with the Ferrari ENZO is the option for buyers to personalize the Ferrari’s cockpit in order to best suit their needs and taste.
What gave the Ferrari its niche market were its breakneck driving speeds and beautiful design with the classic look of the Ferrari is its blazing race red color (Rosso Corsa) alongside the prominent black steed on canary yellow background topped by the Italian flag. Enzo Ferrari didn’t exactly build the company for the purpose of selling luxury sports cars built for the road, but its popularity makes Ferrari one of the greatest forces of sports car.

Most people can’t help but categorize a car by its appearance and features. Sports cars for girls usually arrive at an image of a convertible roadster that is compact and small.

- Volkswagen Beetle
This car is a compact family car that is made in Germany. Because of its distinctive shape, this car is known as the beetle.
- Mini Cooper
Mini Cooper was first design in 1959 as a car that combines a small car body with a big interior space. For to safety issues, the mini cooper employs an anti-lock braking system for more stability and control especially during turns and cornering.

Every car enthusiast goes for one option if need a car with high speed, a sports car. The fastest sports car lately is the 1994 Dauer 962 LeMans with acceleration speed of 2.6 seconds from 0 to 60 mph. Other fast cars include a Dodge, an Audi, a Chevrolet, a Corvette, and a LeBlanc, all of which have acceleration speeds of not more than 2.9 seconds from 0 to 60 mph. The fastest Ferrari car is the 2002 Ferrari ENZO, it can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph at breakneck speed of 3.5 seconds.
The streamlined designs of these fast sports cars contribute to awesome aerodynamics—making it much easier to drive the car fast without worrying about air pressure and air resistance. Another feature that contributes to the speed of the car is its reduced weight.
A last consideration in speed is its general dynamics which include drag and handling when driving. Even the fastest sports cars are usually rear-wheel driven rather than front-wheel driven, because it’s provide greater traction and allows for the weight to be distributed evenly as the car makes a turn. If it cannot sustain its straight-line speeds when driving in tight curbs and ends up crushed after it hit a dead end, a sports car has very little value.
