If you thought Ferrari just did cars, they're into books too. With diamond covers . .

To something, well, totally off the scale of indulgence is the unveiling of the official Ferrari Opus.

Simply, The Official Ferrari Opus is a publication that has been produced by Ferrari and UK Publishing company, Opus.

Weighing in at 37kg, the publication has 852 pages, with 70% of the material never having been published before and with 4 editions, they range from the Classic at $3,520 (gulp) to the Diamante, at $275,000 (choke and possibly pass-out).

The Diamante edition has the Ferrari ‘prancing horse’ logo on the cover, embedded with 1500 hand selected and hand placed diamonds, pictured above.

The Diamante will have 20 copies produced and one is available for purchase in Australia with that purchaser entered in a draw for a trip to Maranello, home of Ferrari in Italy, and their own F1 racecar. If they can afford a 275k book they probably could own Italy at this stage.

Nevertheless, along with the Diamante, Copy #1 of the Enzo edition (400 copies to be published, priced at $34,925) will be welcoming guests at the entrance of tonight's soiree at the Ferrari and Maserati showroom in Sydney.

There is just nothing more to say . . .
