5.0 out of 5 stars This is a wonderful especially for car collectors, April 6, 1999

Alex Early - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dream Cars: The Best Cars In the World (Hardcover)

I purchased this book while on vacation in New York for $55.00 at Barns& Nobel. I see hre that is $28.00 This book has about 3 pages for each car that has colour pictures, it gives all of the technical data on the cars, tells how many are in the world, Everything you want to know except the price of them. I has a whole article on each car telling you a lot of information about it. It includes most of the exotic cars new and old such as the Ferrari Dino, Lamborghini Mura, Countach, and Diablo SV, McLaren F1, Lotus Esprite, Astin Martin DB1, BD6, and the DB7. Ect. It has a lot of cars and I highley suggest it to everyone (espically auto collectors)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pictures, great info!, March 6, 1999

This review is from: Dream Cars: The Best Cars In the World (Hardcover)

I thought this book was terrific. It had great pictures and great information. The book gave you the good and bad points of every single one of the 51 cars in the book. The only disapointment was, it didn't tell you how much the cars cost. If you want great pictures or great information or both, this is the book to get. With the Ferrari F40, AC Cobra, Dodge Charger,Lamborghini Diablo, and many more, this is one book no car lover should be without.

5.0 out of 5 stars car lover's dream book, March 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Dream Cars: The Best Cars In the World (Hardcover)

For most of us the cars Frankel show us we will only see in books such as this or our dreams. The 51 models shown here represent slightly less than 200,000 cars produced with 10 models representing 90% of that. Only a third of the cars are still in production - the others range up to 92 years (and still running - the original Rolls Royce Silver Ghost). The vast majority of these particular cars are plated in Britain so we won't see them on North American roads although many of their breathern may be found in Europe or over here. I have ridden in one of the models shown (an E Type) and have lusted over the few others I have seen. This truly is a car lovers dream book.
