Though there are brands that have tradition, elegance and proper racing heritage, there's one marque that seems to get the most hearts beating. That brand, my friends, would be Ferrari.

The man behind the logo with the prancing horse was Enzo Ferrari. Formerly a racer himself, he started the Maranello-based automaker just to pay for his racing activities. It's hard not to like someone with that kind of brass.

I wonder if he knew he was producing the object of many individual's affection. I mean, he was just trying to fund his racing program, right? Either way he's been directly responsible for some of the most lustworthy products and the last vehicle he's said to have been involved with before his death in the late 1980s -- what some would say is the greatest supercar of them all: the Ferrari F40.

Now to honor the man behind one of the industry's most intriguing manufacturers, a group of local authorities funded the $20 million dollar plus construction of Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari. It is not affiliated with Ferrari.

Check out the video below to go on a tour of the pretty awesome facility.
