And then there are the new wave of automobilesÑ think a cult electric model dreamt up by a Croatian teenager (the Rimac Nevera Time Attack) to a car so exclusive that, when a driver crashed one of them in 2022, it became international news (the Pagani Zonda Barchetta).
All these cars share two things: timeless beauty and shocking rarity. All of them exist in so few numbers that youÕll be lucky to ever encounter one in real life. And all of them are about trailblazing engineering ideas, world-conquering racing pedigrees, and sculptural perfection.
To pay homage to the materials of these iconic automobiles, the bookÕs hardcover is adorned with a mounted metal title plaque and fabricated in rubber, which is lightly scented with an exclusively made rubber-infused essence. The luxury clamshell is handcrafted in sleek metal with an interior lined in hand-stitched Italian leather.
Complimentary white gloves and signature canvas tote bag are included with each purchase from Assouline’s Ultimate Collection.
