Well the only thing that I can say bad about this Enzo is that is costs too much!!!!! Surely, this thing must be way overpriced. It can't possibly cost all that money to build the car.
:lol: :lol:
The 'sticker" price is a joke. It's not like you can stroll into your local Ferrari dealership and buy or order one.
There were a total of 349 built, approx 80 of which made it to the US, and every single car was sold before the first car was even built. I'd be very surprised if you found one for sale at double that 650k sticker price right now.

Supply and demand is the game...and after the F40 fiasco, Ferrari learned how to control that game very well. :yesnod:

:cheers:

That is a silly comparison but fun to contemplate.
Not so silly when we look at the difference in performance vs. the $ cost to aquire that performance. Also look a Porsche GT $118k for Z06 performance.
To me the Enzo is the Exotic of the Exotics. Every person that wants one should be able to own one ! How about 50 year financing, Yup, lets see "0%" financing $650K, 50 yr. term= 600 months $1083.33 per month. Yup , that otta do it!!!!!!!! It'll take mine in Blk/Blk. :smash:

It only comes in red or yellow.

I found this video. It originally came from racingflix.com but I'm hosting it since their stuff tends to be slow

Yeah, I thought since not that many were made that I would never see one on the open road. A collector would not drive this car for fun on an interstate!

If I had the cash to spend on an Enzo, I'd sure as hell drive it (Not as a daily driver, that would get really old) :cool:

Too bad that all of the Enzo's are gone for this year all 400 of them and yeah they cost a lot of money. you can buy a Lingenfelter 427 twin turbo vette with 800 hp and street legal for $175,000. it goes 0-60 in 1.9 and 1/4 mile in 8.95 on drag radials and a top speed of 226. That is my dream car i don't know about you guys.

just a comment,

you can make a vette be faster than enzo or any other car, it's the same you can make little civic to be faster than our vettes.

But remember vette still won't perform and feel as good as enzo, same with civic, it can go fast - but so what?

I probably agree that enzo is overpriced, but you pay that "little" extra to own the best and exotiest cars.

Remember - you wanna play - you gotta pay :thumbs:

just need to find a place full of money :nopity

I've seen a yellow one on the road in Greensboro, NC. There's a dealership called Foriegn Cars Italia and they've sold two of them (red and yellow). I went in and looked at the red one, but decided to go with the chevy instead :jester: The yellow one is owned by a furniture tycoon who lives in Highpoint, NC. My mom swears she's seen it on road too after I showed her the read one at the dealership

I think they made like 500 Enzo's and they were all sold before they even were made, from what i had read. So you wont find one, unless somebody is selling one. Being so rare they could prob sell it for 800k or more!

Here is a great write up on the Enzo, has some nice pics also! :cheers: http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....ber=1&preview=

Hi Yano -

A good number of automobile "aristocrats" look down nose at the Corvette - linking the car with the stereotype gold medallion,hairy chest lounge lizard type. There was a recent article in Corvette Magazine about the perception of the vette as an unrefined and vulgar sports car - and most of the car buffs interviewed would not consider owning a vette, even after having driven a C5.

Until I bought my Z06, I had always wanted a Ferrari - now I am very satisfied with the value and performance I have in the Z.

Given unlimited funding, I am not so sure that a Ferrari is the top rung of the ladder anymore.

best regards -
