The Ferrari FXX track use only derivation of the Enzo model is the
ultimate mid engine Ferrari supercar to date, and this new book by
Philip Bachman provides an insider view of this limited production
series of cars. Philip has been in the fortunate position to witness the
whole programme from inception, as his father is one of the original
owners of an FXX, thus he has been in close proximity to the car from
the day that they took delivery back in 2006.

The FXX was not just a car, it was a client driver test programme, where
feedback from the owners was assimilated and used for development
of the Ferrari road car series, and also the Evoluzione upgrade plus the
subsequent 599XX, which has run concurrently with the extended FXX
programme for the past three years. This book provides a fascinating
behind the scenes look at the car, the programme and the lifestyle
element surrounding it. The foreword is by Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa,
who explains the raison d’etre of the programme, and there are also
numerous quotes from the Ferrari staff involved in the project, together
with comments from some of the owners. There is also a wealth of
technical information hitherto unpublished, together with production
details, chassis numbers with original colours and also Evoluzione
colour schemes, in fact virtually anything, and almost everything, that
one could possibly want to know about the FXX.
The book runs to 155 pages, and is in full colour, in a square hardback
format, size 26cms x 26cms, which retails in the USA for $85 plus
shipping. Worldwide distribution is available, and details can be found
at www.fxxbook.com or enquiries can be made at info@fxxbook.com
