    Or the same percentage that I spent on an $11 hayes repair manual for my $2,500 Volvo 240.

    That’s about how many TheFerrar Aperta’s were produced. If I were a billionaire who bought enough Ferrari’s to be high enough on their best customers list to get that car I’d probably feel obligated to buy one of these books.  And then look at the pictures while sitting on my gold toilet.
