Enzo Ferrari, formerly a salesman and racing driver for Alfa Romeo, founded Scuderia Ferrari, a racing team, in 1929. Originally intended to service gentleman drivers and other amateur racers, Alfa Romeo's withdrawal from racing in 1933, combined with Enzo's connections within the company, turned Scuderia Ferrari into its unofficial representative on the track.{{cite web |author-last=Ludvigsen |author-first=Karl |website=Forza Magazine |title=The Rise and Fall of Scuderia Ferrari |url=https://www.forza-mag.com/issues/195/articles/the-rise-and-fall-of-scuderia-ferrari |date=2 December 2021 |access-date=19 March 2023 }} Alfa Romeo supplied racing cars to Ferrari, who eventually amassed some of the best drivers of the 1930s and won many races before the team's liquidation in 1937.{{cite journal |last1=Aversa |first1=Paolo |last2=Schreiter |first2=Katrin |last3=Guerrini |first3=Filippo |title=The Birth of a Business Icon through Cultural Branding: Ferrari and the Prancing Horse, 1923–1947 |journal=Enterprise & Society |date=26 July 2021 |volume=24 |issue=1 |pages=28–58 |issn=1467-2227 |eissn=1467-2235 |doi=10.1017/eso.2021.22 |pmid= |s2cid=237737650 |url=https://openaccess.city.ac.uk/id/eprint/25916/3/Aversa_Schreiter_Guerrini_2021_EandS.pdf |archive-date=26 November 2023 |access-date=5 December 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231126045754/https://openaccess.city.ac.uk/id/eprint/25916/3/Aversa_Schreiter_Guerrini_2021_EandS.pdf |url-status=live }}{{rp|43}}

Late in 1937, Scuderia Ferrari was liquidated and absorbed into Alfa Romeo, but Enzo's disagreements with upper management caused him to leave in 1939. He used his settlement to found his own company, where he intended to produce his own cars. He called the company "Auto Avio Costruzioni", and headquartered it in the facilities of the old Scuderia Ferrari; due to a noncompete agreement with Alfa Romeo, the company could not use the Ferrari name for another four years. The company produced a single car, the Auto Avio Costruzioni 815, which participated in only one race before the outbreak of World War II. During the war, Enzo's company produced aircraft engines and machine tools for the Italian military; the contracts for these goods were lucrative, and provided the new company with a great deal of capital. In 1943, under threat of Allied bombing raids, the company's factory was moved to Maranello. Though the new facility was nonetheless bombed twice, Ferrari remains in Maranello to this day.{{rp|45–47}}{{cite web |author-last=Ludvigsen |author-first=Karl |website=Forza Magazine |title=The Wilderness Years |url=https://www.forza-mag.com/issues/192/articles/the-wilderness-years |date=19 July 2021 |access-date=19 March 2023 |archive-date=16 June 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240616193738/https://www.forza-mag.com/issues/192/articles/the-wilderness-years |url-status=live }}

In 1945, Ferrari adopted its current name. Work started promptly on a new V12 engine that would power the 125 S, which was the marque's first car, and many subsequent Ferraris.

In 1960, Ferrari was reorganized as a public company. It soon began searching for a business partner to handle its manufacturing operations: it first approached Ford in 1963, though negotiations fell through; later talks with Fiat, who bought 50% of Ferrari's shares in 1969, were more successful.{{cite journal |last=Summers |first=Alexander |title=Commercializing the 24-hours War: Ford Motor Company versus The World |journal=Legacy |volume=20 |issue=1 |date=2020 |url=https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/legacy/vol20/iss1/7 |access-date=14 May 2023 }}{{cite journal |last1=Maran |first1=Laura |last2=Parker |first2=Lee |title=Non-financial motivations in mergers and acquisitions: The Fiat–Ferrari case |journal=Business History |publisher=Informa UK Limited |volume=63 |issue=4 |date=18 August 2019 |issn=0007-6791 |doi=10.1080/00076791.2019.1597854 |pages=606–667 |s2cid=199340523 |url=http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/179827/7/179827.pdf |archive-date=9 June 2023 |access-date=16 June 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230609033519/http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/179827/7/179827.pdf |url-status=live }} In the second half of the decade, Ferrari also produced two cars that upended its more traditional models: the 1967 Dino 206 GT, which was its first mass-produced mid-engined road car,{{efn|The Dino 206 GT was preceded by the 250 LM Stradale and 365 P Berlinetta Speciale.

Between 1991 and 2014, he increased the profitability of Ferrari's road cars nearly tenfold, both by increasing the range of cars offered and through limiting the total number produced. Montezemolo's chairmanship also saw an expansion in licensing deals, a drastic improvement in Ferrari's Formula One performance (not least through the hiring of Michael Schumacher and Jean Todt), and the production of three more flagship cars: the F50, the Enzo, and the LaFerrari. In addition to his leadership of Ferrari, Montezemolo was also the chairman of Fiat proper between 2004 and 2010.{{cite web |author-last=Shea |author-first=Terry |title=End of an era at Ferrari: Montezemolo out; Marchionne steps in |website=Hemmings Motor News |date=16 September 2014 |url=https://www.hemmings.com/stories/2014/09/16/end-of-an-era-at-ferrari-montezemolo-out-marchionne-steps-in |access-date=22 May 2023 |archive-date=22 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230522170509/https://www.hemmings.com/stories/2014/09/16/end-of-an-era-at-ferrari-montezemolo-out-marchionne-steps-in |url-status=live }}

Scuderia Ferrari has been continuously active since the very beginning of Formula One, and is one of its most illustrious teams: since 1952 it has fielded fifteen champion drivers, won sixteen Constructors' Championships, and accumulated more race victories, 1–2 finishes, podiums, pole positions, fastest laps and points than any other team in F1 history.{{cite web |title=Ferrari Year by Year - F1 Grand Prix Wins and Highlights |website=Formula One |date=2023 |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/teams/Ferrari/Year_by_Year.html |access-date=11 May 2023 |archive-date=7 February 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190207015738/https://www.formula1.com/en/teams/Ferrari/Year_by_Year.html |url-status=live }}{{cite web |author-last=Miles |author-first=Ben |title=The nine most successful F1 teams of all time |website=Goodwood |date=24 April 2020 |url=https://www.goodwood.com/grr/race/historic/2020/4/the-nine-most-successful-f1-teams-of-all-time/ |access-date=16 May 2023 |archive-date=16 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230516135255/https://www.goodwood.com/grr/race/historic/2020/4/the-nine-most-successful-f1-teams-of-all-time/ |url-status=live }}

The earliest Ferrari entity, Scuderia Ferrari, was created in 1929—ten years before the founding of Ferrari proper—as a Grand Prix racing team. It was affiliated with automaker Alfa Romeo, for whom Enzo had worked in the 1920s. Alfa Romeo supplied racing cars to Ferrari, which the team then tuned and adjusted to their desired specifications. Scuderia Ferrari was highly successful in the 1930s: between 1929 and 1937 the team fielded such top drivers as Antonio Ascari, Giuseppe Campari, and Tazio Nuvolari, and won 144 out of its 225 races.

Ferrari returned to Grand Prix racing in 1947, which was at that point metamorphosing into modern-day Formula One. The team's first homebuilt Grand Prix car, the 125 F1, was first raced at the 1948 Italian Grand Prix, where its encouraging performance convinced Enzo to continue the company's costly Grand Prix racing programme.{{cite book |title=Ferrari: A Complete Guide to All Models |last=Acerbi |first=Leonardo |year=2006 |publisher=Motorbooks |isbn=9780760325506 }}{{rp|9}} Ferrari's first victory in an F1 series was at the 1951 British Grand Prix, heralding its strong performance during the 1950s and early 1960s: between 1952 and 1964, the team took home six World Drivers' Championships and one Constructors' Championship. Notable Ferrari drivers from this era include Alberto Ascari, Juan Manuel Fangio, Phil Hill, and John Surtees.

Ferrari's initial fortunes ran dry after 1964, and its began to receive its titles in isolated sprees. Ferrari first started to slip in the late 1960s, when it was outclassed by British teams using the inexpensive, well-engineered Cosworth DFV engine.{{cite web |last=MacKenzie |first=Angus |title=What if Ford had bought Ferrari? |website=MotorTrend |date=16 June 2008 |url=https://www.motortrend.com/features/what-if-ford-had-bought-ferrari-1895/ |access-date=17 May 2023 |archive-date=17 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230517121913/https://www.motortrend.com/features/what-if-ford-had-bought-ferrari-1895/ |url-status=live }}{{cite web |last=Gerould |first=Bryan |title=Ford in Formula 1: The highs and lows |website=Hagerty Media |date=7 February 2023 |url=https://www.hagerty.co.uk/articles/motorsport/ford-in-formula-one-the-highs-and-lows/ |access-date=2 June 2023 |archive-date=2 June 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230602162040/https://www.hagerty.co.uk/articles/motorsport/ford-in-formula-one-the-highs-and-lows/ |url-status=live }} The team's performance improved markedly in the mid-1970s thanks to Niki Lauda, whose skill behind the wheel granted Ferrari a drivers' title in 1975 and 1977; similar success was accomplished in following years by the likes of Jody Scheckter and Gilles Villeneuve.{{cite web |title=Niki Lauda |website=Formula 1 |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/drivers/hall-of-fame/Niki_Lauda.html |access-date=31 May 2023 |archive-date=8 October 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181008061309/https://www.formula1.com/en/drivers/hall-of-fame/Niki_Lauda.html |url-status=live }} The team also won the Constructors' Championship in 1982 and 1983.{{cite web |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/results.html/1982/team.html |title=1982 Constructor Standings |work=www.formula1.com |access-date=9 December 2016 |publisher=Formula One World Championship Limited |archive-date=21 February 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180221171102/https://www.formula1.com/en/results.html/1982/team.html |url-status=dead }}

Following another drought in the 1980s and 1990s, Ferrari saw a long winning streak in the 2000s, largely through the work of Michael Schumacher. After signing onto the team in 1996, Schumacher gave Ferrari five consecutive drivers' titles between 2000 and 2004; this was accompanied by six consecutive constructors' titles, beginning in 1999. Ferrari was especially dominant in the 2004 season, where it lost only three races. After Schumacher's departure, Ferrari won one more drivers' title—given in 2007 to Kimi Räikkönen—and two constructors' titles in 2007 and 2008. These are the team's most recent titles to date; as of late, Ferrari has struggled to outdo recently ascendant teams such as Red Bull and Mercedes-Benz.

Aside from an abortive effort in 1940, Ferrari began racing sports cars in 1947, when the 125 S won six out of the ten races it participated in. Ferrari continued to see similar luck in the years to follow: by 1957, just ten years after beginning to compete, Ferrari had won three World Sportscar Championships, seven victories in the Mille Miglia, and two victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, among many other races. These races were ideal environments for the development and promotion of Ferrari's earlier road cars, which were broadly similar to their racing counterparts.{{cite web |title=Sportscar Champions: Ferrari History |website=Official Ferrari website |date=11 June 2019 |url=https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/history/moments/1953/sportscar-champions/more |access-date=27 October 2023 |archive-date=27 October 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231027201117/https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/history/moments/1953/sportscar-champions/more |url-status=live }}

From 1932 to 1935 Scuderia Ferrari operated a motorcycle racing division, which was conceived as a way to scout and train future Grand Prix drivers. Instead of Italian motorcycles, the team used British ones manufactured by Norton and Rudge. Though Ferrari was successful on two wheels, winning three national titles and 44 overall victories, it was eventually pushed out of the discipline both by the obsolescence of pushrod motorcycle engines and broader economic troubles stemming from the Great Depression.{{cite web |author-last=Branch |author-first=Ben |title=Scuderia Ferrari Rudge 500 TT |website=Silodrome |date=16 January 2017 |url=https://silodrome.com/scuderia-ferrari-motorcycle-rudge-500-tt/ |access-date=23 November 2023 |archive-date=23 November 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231123182206/https://silodrome.com/scuderia-ferrari-motorcycle-rudge-500-tt/ |url-status=live }}{{cite web |author-last=D'Orléans |author-first=Paul |title=Scuderia Ferrari Motorcycles |website=The Vintagent |date=13 August 2017 |url=https://thevintagent.com/2017/08/13/scuderia-ferrari-motorcycles/ |access-date=23 November 2023 |archive-date=23 November 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231123182209/https://thevintagent.com/2017/08/13/scuderia-ferrari-motorcycles/ |url-status=live }}

Throughout its history, Ferrari has supplied racing cars to other entrants, aside from its own works Scuderia Ferrari team. In the 1950s and 1960s, Ferrari supplied Formula One cars to a number of private entrants and other teams. One famous example was Tony Vandervell's team, which raced the Thinwall Special modified Ferraris before building their own Vanwall cars. The North American Racing Team's entries in the final three rounds of the 1969 season were the last occasions on which a team other than Scuderia Ferrari entered a World Championship Grand Prix with a Ferrari car.Hayhoe, David & Holland, David (2006).

File:1947 Ferrari 166 Inter Touring Berlinetta 0043S - fvl.jpg Touring Berlinetta]]

The first vehicle made with the Ferrari name was the 125 S. Only two of this small two-seat sports/racing V12 car were made. In 1949, the 166 Inter was introduced marking the company's significant move into the grand touring road car market. The first 166 Inter was a four-seat (2+2) berlinetta coupe with body work designed by Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera. Road cars quickly became the bulk of Ferrari sales. The early Ferrari road cars typically featured bodywork designed and customised by independent coachbuilders such as Vignale, Touring, Ghia, Pininfarina, Scaglietti and Bertone.

The original Ferrari road cars were typically two-seat front-engined V12s. This platform served Ferrari well through the 1950s and 1960s. In 1967, the V6 powered Dino 206 GT was introduced as the first production rear mid-engined car built by Ferrari. The 206 GT was sold under the lower cost Dino marque, named after Enzo Ferrari's late son, and sold in greater numbers than any previous Ferrari model. The first rear mid-engine model to be sold under the Ferrari name came in 1973 with the flat 12 powered Berlinetta Boxer.{{Cite web |title=The Mid-Engine Bloodline |url=https://www.ferrari.com/%20magazine/articles/60-years-of-mid-engine-masterpieces-bloodline |access-date=7 April 2024 |website=www.ferrari.com |language=en}}{{Dead link|date=April 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} This rear mid-engine layout would go on to be used in many Ferraris continuing into the present day. Current Ferrari road cars typically use V8 or V12 engines, with V8 models making up over half of the marque's total production.

For a time, Ferrari built 2+2 versions of its mid-engined V8 cars. Although they looked quite different from their 2-seat counterparts, both the GT4 and Mondial were closely related to the 308 GTB.{{citation needed|date=August 2018}}

The company has also produced several front-engined 2+2 cars, culminating in the recent V12 model Lusso and V8 models Roma, Portofino and Lusso T. The California is credited with initiating the current model line of V8 front-engined 2+2 grand touring performance sports cars.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}}

Starting in the early 2010s with the LaFerrari, Ferrari shifted its focus away from using independent coachbuilders, including Pininfarina, to instead relying on in-house design from the Centro Stile Ferrari for the design of all its road cars. The Ferrari F12 was the last Ferrari production model to feature Pininfarina design, although Ferrari has stated that they will continue to collaborate with Pininfarina on special projects.{{Cite web |last=Perkins |first=Chris |title=Ferrari No Longer Sells a Car Designed by Pininfarina |work=Road & Track |date=16 February 2017 |url=https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/car-design/news/a32659/ferrari-pininfarina-812-superfast/ |access-date=7 April 2024 |archive-date=28 January 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230128011337/https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/car-design/news/a32659/ferrari-pininfarina-812-superfast/ |url-status=live }}

In the 1950s and 1960s, clients often personalized their vehicles as they came straight from the factory.{{cite web |url=http://autoweek.com/article/car-news/ferrari-offers-tailor-made-program |title=Ferrari-offers-tailor-made-program |last=Lingeman |first=Jake |work=Autoweek |date=5 December 2011 |access-date=12 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180812222718/https://autoweek.com/article/car-news/ferrari-offers-tailor-made-program |archive-date=12 August 2018 |url-status=live }} This philosophy added to the mystique of the brand at the time. Every Ferrari that came out of Maranello could be built to an individual customer's specification.

Ferrari formalized this concept with its earlier Carrozzeria Scaglietti programme. The options offered here were more typical such as racing seats, rearview cameras, and other special trim. In late 2011, Ferrari announced a significant update of this philosophy. The Tailor Made programme allows clients to work with designers in Maranello to make decisions at every step of the process. Through this program almost any trim, any exterior colour or any interior material is possible. The program carries on the original tradition and emphasizes the idea of each car being unique.

Ferrari has produced a handful of concept cars such as the Modulo, Mythos, and Pinin. Some of these were quite radical and never intended for production, while others showed styling elements that were later incorporated into production models. Most of Ferrari's concept cars have been collaborations with design studio Pininfarina. The most recent concept car to be produced by Ferrari themselves was the 2010 Millechili.

A number of one-off special versions of Ferrari road cars have also been produced, commissioned to coachbuilders by wealthy owners.

Ferrari's symbol is the "Prancing Horse" ({{langx|it|Cavallino Rampante}}, {{literally|little prancing horse}}), a prancing black horse on a yellow background. Minor details of its appearance have changed many times, but its shape has remained consistent: it is always presented either as a shield, with the Italian tricolour above the horse and the initials SF ("Scuderia Ferrari") below; or as a rectangle, replacing "SF" with the word "Ferrari" rendered in the company's trademark typeface.{{cite web |title=Prances With Horse: The History of the Ferrari Logo |website=Motor Trend |url=https://www.motortrend.com/features/history-ferrari-logo-badge-photos/ |date=20 October 2020 |access-date=13 March 2023 |archive-date=13 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313211401/https://www.motortrend.com/features/history-ferrari-logo-badge-photos/ |url-status=live }}

Enzo Ferrari offered an account of the horse's origins. In his story, after a 1923 victory in Ravenna, the family of Francesco Baracca, a deceased flying ace who painted the emblem on his airplane, paid him a visit. Paolina de Biancoli, Francesco's mother, suggested that Ferrari adopt the horse as a good luck charm: he accepted the request, and the Prancing Horse was first used by his racing team in 1932, applied to their Alfa Romeo 8C with the addition of a canary yellow background—the "colour of Modena", Enzo's hometown.{{rp|43}} The rectangular Prancing Horse has been used since 1947, when the Ferrari 125 S—also the first Ferrari-branded sports car—became the first to wear it.

For many years, {{lang|it|rosso corsa}} ({{gloss|racing red}}) was the required colour of all Italian racing cars. It is also closely associated with Ferrari: even after livery regulations changed, allowing race teams to deviate from their national colours, Scuderia Ferrari continued to paint its cars bright red, as it does to this day.{{cite web |last=Kaslikowski |first=Adam |title=A Colorful History of Racing Hues: An Introduction (1 of 4) |website=Petrolicious |date=8 January 2014 |url=https://petrolicious.com/articles/the-colorful-history-of-national-racing-hues-an-introduction-1-of-4 |access-date=18 May 2023 |archive-date=18 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230518132832/https://petrolicious.com/articles/the-colorful-history-of-national-racing-hues-an-introduction-1-of-4 |url-status=live }} On Ferrari's road-going cars, the colour has always been among the company's most popular choices: in 2012, 40 per cent of Ferraris left the factory painted red, while in the early 1990s the figure was even higher, at 85 per cent.{{cite web |last=Wasef |first=Basem |title=Why Are There Fewer Ferraris in Red? |website=Popular Mechanics |date=24 July 2012 |url=https://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a7991/ferrari-red-no-longer-the-automatic-choice/ |access-date=18 May 2023 |archive-date=18 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230518131337/https://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a7991/ferrari-red-no-longer-the-automatic-choice/ |url-status=live }} Some Ferrari vehicles, such as the 288 GTO, have only been made available in red.{{cite web |author-last=Rees |author-first=Chris |title=Rosso Ferrari |website=Ferrari Magazine |url=https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/magazine/articles/ferrari-colors-rosso-portofino-rosso-corsa-racing-red/ |date=20 March 2018 |access-date=14 March 2023 |archive-date=14 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230314054101/https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/magazine/articles/ferrari-colors-rosso-portofino-rosso-corsa-racing-red |url-status=live }}

Although rosso corsa is the colour most associated with Ferrari, it has not always been the colour of choice. Ferraris raced by privateers have run in a rainbow of colours, and one 250 GT SWB, used as a test mule for the 250 GTO, was a rare non-red factory-backed car: it raced in blue.{{cite web |author-last=Jupo |author-first=Ethan |title=The 9 best Ferrari liveries that aren't red |website=Goodwood |url=https://www.goodwood.com/grr/race/historic/2023/2/the-10-best-ferrari-liveries-that-arent-red/ |date=21 February 2023 |access-date=14 March 2023 |archive-date=14 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230314053400/https://www.goodwood.com/grr/race/historic/2023/2/the-10-best-ferrari-liveries-that-arent-red/ |url-status=live }}{{cite web |last=Thorson |first=Thor |title=The Experiment |website=Forza Magazine |date=30 November 2017 |url=https://www.forza-mag.com/issues/163/articles/the-experiment |access-date=16 May 2023 |quote=At any rate, the Sperimentale remains one of very few Ferraris, and possibly the only one, to have competed as a factory team entry in a color other than red. |archive-date=16 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230516143759/https://www.forza-mag.com/issues/163/articles/the-experiment |url-status=live }} In a particularly noteworthy case from 1964, while protesting the FIA's homologation requirements, the company moved its racing assets to the North American Racing Team, an affiliated team based in the United States. As a result, Ferrari and the driver John Surtees won the 1964 Formula One season in American colours—blue, with a white racing stripe.{{cite web |title=Do you remember...when Ferrari raced in blue |website=Formula One |url=https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/features/2015/10/f1-do-you-remember-when-ferrari-raced-in-blue-in-mexico.html |date=28 October 2015 |access-date=14 March 2023 |archive-date=29 March 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180329083659/https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/features/2015/10/f1-do-you-remember-when-ferrari-raced-in-blue-in-mexico.html |url-status=live }}{{cite web |title=When Ferrari raced in blue and white |website=Official Ferrari website |date=10 October 2018 |url=https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/magazine/articles/when-ferrari-raced-blue-white |ref={{sfnref | Official Ferrari website | 2018}} |access-date=18 May 2023 |archive-date=18 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230518133422/https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/magazine/articles/when-ferrari-raced-blue-white |url-status=live }} By the early 2010s, red had also become less common on Ferrari's road cars, fighting with newly popular colours such as yellow, silver, and white.{{cite web |last=Sarne |first=Vernon B. |title=Red paint job less popular among Ferrari customers today |website=Top Gear Philippines |date=22 June 2012 |url=https://www.topgear.com.ph/features/feature-articles/red-paint-job-less-popular-among-ferrari-customers-today |access-date=18 May 2023 |archive-date=18 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230518131329/https://www.topgear.com.ph/features/feature-articles/red-paint-job-less-popular-among-ferrari-customers-today |url-status=live }}

Speaking to both the popularity of rosso corsa and the power of the Ferrari brand, Enzo Ferrari is reported to have once said the following: "Ask a child to draw a car, and he will certainly paint it red."

Ferrari meticulously manages its brand image and public perception: it goes to great lengths to protect its trademarks, and its customers are expected to honour its rules and guidelines when caring for their cars.

Ferrari aims to cultivate an image of exclusivity and refined luxury. To facilitate this, vehicle production is deliberately limited to below customer demand, and purchasers are internally ranked based on their desirability and loyalty.{{cite web |author-last=Valdes-Dapena |author-first=Peter |title=How Ferrari maintains its mystique |website=CNN |url=https://money.cnn.com/2015/03/26/autos/ferrari-brand-image/index.html |date=27 March 2015 |access-date=13 March 2023 |archive-date=13 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313044907/https://money.cnn.com/2015/03/26/autos/ferrari-brand-image/index.html |url-status=live }} Some cars may only be purchased by customers who have already owned multiple Ferraris,{{cite web |last=Tsui |first=Chris |title=Jay Leno Won't Buy a Ferrari Because He Hates the Dealerships |website=The Drive |date=4 February 2022 |url=https://www.thedrive.com/news/44156/jay-leno-wont-buy-a-ferrari-because-he-hates-the-dealerships |access-date=18 May 2023 |archive-date=18 May 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230518200543/https://www.thedrive.com/news/44156/jay-leno-wont-buy-a-ferrari-because-he-hates-the-dealerships |url-status=live }} and the company's most exclusive supercars, such as the LaFerrari, have wait lists many times in excess of total production, with only the most loyal customers selected to purchase one.{{cite magazine |author-last=Golson |author-first=Jordan |title=How to Earn the Right to Buy Ferrari's Most Exclusive Hypercar |magazine=Wired |url=https://www.wired.com/2014/10/herjavec-ferrari-laferrari/ |date=24 October 2014 |access-date=12 March 2023 |archive-date=12 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230312055424/https://www.wired.com/2014/10/herjavec-ferrari-laferrari/ |url-status=live }} In 2015, the company's head of sales stated that the purpose of this strategy was to maintain the brand's value, and to "keep alive this dream that is called Ferrari".

Sometimes, Ferrari's desire to maintain its brand perception goes against the wishes of its clientele. In one case, the company sued the fashion designer Philipp Plein over "distasteful" Instagram posts featuring his personal 812 Superfast. The posts, which showcased two models in suggestive positions atop the car, were seen by Ferrari as "unlawfully appropriating" the Ferrari brand to promote Plein's clothing, and as being outside Ferrari's intended brand perception.{{cite web |author-last=Kammel |author-first=Benedikt |title=Ferrari Sues Influencer Over Racy Instagram Posts |website=Bloomberg |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-08-02/at-ferrari-a-battle-over-bikinis-sneakers-and-a-garden-hose |date=2 August 2019 |access-date=12 March 2023 |archive-date=21 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240321193602/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-08-02/at-ferrari-a-battle-over-bikinis-sneakers-and-a-garden-hose |url-status=live }} Furthermore, the company places restrictions on what owners may do with their cars: they are not allowed to undertake certain modifications, and the company's right of first refusal contract, designed to discourage speculation and flipping, prohibits unauthorised sales within the first two years of ownership.{{cite web |author-last=Cushing |author-first=Tim |title=Ferrari 'DRM:' Don't Screw With Our Logos And We'll Let You Know If It's OK To Sell Your Car |website=Techdirt |url=https://www.techdirt.com/2014/09/03/ferrari-drm-dont-screw-with-our-logos-well-let-you-know-if-its-ok-to-sell-your-car/ |date=3 September 2014 |access-date=13 March 2023 |archive-date=13 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313044908/https://www.techdirt.com/2014/09/03/ferrari-drm-dont-screw-with-our-logos-well-let-you-know-if-its-ok-to-sell-your-car/ |url-status=live }}{{unreliable source|date=July 2023}} Purchasers who break these rules are placed on a "blacklist", and may not be permitted to buy a Ferrari vehicle through official means.{{cite web |title=The celebrities on Ferrari's blacklist |website=El País |url=https://english.elpais.com/society/2022-04-27/the-celebrities-on-ferraris-blacklist.html |date=27 April 2022 |access-date=13 March 2023 |archive-date=13 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313044907/https://english.elpais.com/society/2022-04-27/the-celebrities-on-ferraris-blacklist.html |url-status=live }} These owner restrictions came to high profile in 2014, when the musician Deadmau5 was sent a cease and desist letter regarding his highly customised 458 Italia: the car, which he dubbed the "Purrari", possessed custom badges and a Nyan Cat-themed wrap, and was put up for sale on Craigslist.{{cite web |author-last=Nunez |author-first=Alex |title=deadmau5's [sic] Nyan Cat Ferrari 458 is on Craigslist for $380,000 |website=Road & Track |url=https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/entertainment/a8158/deadmau5-nyan-cat-ferrari-458-meme-car-on-craigslist-for-380k/ |date=18 June 2014 |access-date=20 March 2023 |archive-date=20 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230320070103/https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/entertainment/a8158/deadmau5-nyan-cat-ferrari-458-meme-car-on-craigslist-for-380k/ |url-status=live }}

Ferrari does encourage its buyers to personalise their cars, but only through official channels, which include its Tailor Made programme for bespoke trim packages and special coachbuilding initiatives for more demanding commissions.{{cite web |author-last=Vijayenthiran |author-first=Viknesh |title=This Is Ferrari's New Tailor-Made Program: Video |website=Motor Authority |url=https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1070318_this-is-ferraris-new-tailor-made-program-video |date=7 December 2011 |access-date=12 March 2023 |archive-date=13 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230313044908/https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1070318_this-is-ferraris-new-tailor-made-program-video |url-status=live }} The customisation options offered through these channels are extensive, though they are always in line with Ferrari's desired branding—for example, the company offers no pink paint for its cars. In 2017, the CEO of the company's Australasia branch commented that this and similar customisations are "against the company's ethos," and that such a stance is "a brand rule. No pink. No Pokémon Ferraris!".{{cite web |author-last=Hoyer |author-first=Melissa |title=They may be the sexiest sports car in the world but one colour has been globally banned by Ferrari |website=News.com.au |url=https://www.news.com.au/technology/they-may-be-the-sexiest-sports-car-in-the-world-but-one-colour-has-been-globally-banned-by-ferrari/news-story/798386f22c05901212f8e469b014e95b |date=5 April 2017 |access-date=12 March 2023 }}

In 1963, Enzo Ferrari was approached by the Ford Motor Company about a possible buy out.{{cite web |url=http://www.rmauctions.com/lots/lot.cfm?lot_id=1071338 |title=Ford GT |publisher=rmauctions.com.com |access-date=13 May 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518113716/http://www.rmauctions.com/lots/lot.cfm?lot_id=1071338 |archive-date=18 May 2015 |url-status=dead }} Ford audited Ferrari's assets but legal negotiations and talks were unilaterally cut off by Ferrari when he realized that the deal offered by Ford would not enable him to stay at the helm of the company racing program. Henry Ford II consequently directed his racing division to negotiate with Lotus, Lola, and Cooper to build a car capable of beating Ferrari on the world endurance circuit, eventually resulting in the production of the Ford GT40 in 1964.

As the Ford deal fell through, FIAT approached Ferrari with a more flexible proposal and purchased controlling interests in the company in 1969. Enzo Ferrari retained a 10% share, which is currently owned by his son Piero Lardi Ferrari.

Ferrari has an internally managed merchandising line that licences many products bearing the Ferrari brand, including eyewear, pens, pencils, electronic goods, perfume, cologne, clothing, high-tech bicycles, watches, cell phones, and laptop computers.

Ferrari also runs a museum, the Museo Ferrari in Maranello, which displays road and race cars and other items from the company's history.{{Cite web |title=Ferrari.

Ferrari has had a long-standing relationship with petroleum company Shell Oil from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, and currently since 1996.
