Not only Ferrari is red. In fact, Ferrari is actually yellow, the color of Modena. I believe there is at least one car in yellow for each Ferrari model. The fact that a Ferrari is red is because they come from Italy and red was simply the color of Italy. For a long time it was mandatory to paint your car in the national color in order to participate in international race events. That is why this Maserati is red also, it's Italian. After the national colors were banned, Ferrari stuck with the red, although the color was changed to the so-called Marlboro red when the cigarette brand became their main sponsor.
