Never thought I'd see one of these on the road...

I was cruisin' up to my sister's in Irvine and followed one of these ENZO Ferrari's for a few miles up I5. It was on the back of a flatbed tow rig...wow what a beautiful automibile. V12, 660HP, the fastest road car ever built by Ferrari...kinda makes you forget about anything "traditional"...

 

Sonny Crockett called, he wants his car back.

 

Sorry, Crokett's was Chevy powered. This must be a different one.

When is the Greatest Country on Earth, going to build the Fastest Production Car?

Actually that Miami Vice Ferrari Spyder knockoff was built on a 'vette ch***is by Tom McBurnie right here in El Cajon. He still has a shop, Thunder Ranch, but he is building Porsche 550 knock-offs now...remember James Dean?

I think we're pretty close... we've got guys building 600hp cars in their home garages.. we don't need no stinkin' formula race team!

 

the Italians know how to make some beautiful things....starting with the High Renaissance!

 

if i had it, i'd paint it flat black, get some cokers and a visor, then i'd be hellakool in all honesty, that's a well done car, of course.

 

jesse james painted his flat black ,and ferrari was mad, he did it because he could,

 

ANYTHING Italian is GOOD, cars, chicks, motorcycles... food...

 

Ferrari? Blech. Make mine a FORD. I believe in cheap horsepower.

Might be fast but sure don't sound like this....

 

From what I hear that new ford gt rivals most Ferrari and plus nothing sounds like an good ol V8

And Monica Belucci ! ! !

 

Heres one...oops.

 

what do they go for?

 

What do they go for??
Try $600,000.
That's over one half-million dollars.
There was a test in either Car and Driver, or Top Gear, I forget where I read it. Hard to forget that price, though.
And I disagree as to sound. Having heard a few Ferraris in my day, I say there is nothing quite like the sound of a V12 on full song; a sound much like ripping canvas, a sound that says "I mean Business".

What's more traditional than a red Ferarri?

Never, because the members of the greatest nation on Earth, have the balls to really drive it. American car builders know that we'll build our own to suit us!

I do think that it would be fun to throw it into a four wheel drift, while banging the right rear off of a 6" cushion of clay!

Charlie, you still haven't seen one on the road, I walked around one at a car show and that was the same thing it looked great sitting there dead.
A few years ago on a trip to southern calif. heading south to San Marcos p*** I saw and heard and at song 64 Lamborghini Diablo's with a CHP ****** (about 20 cops) traveling well over 100 mph led by Mario Andretti going to Monterey. I read later that it was every Diablo in the US except two what a show and sound I stopped and got out of the car to stupidfied to even grab my camera off the front seat

It's called "the Running of the Bulls". They do it every year.
Though location changes.

 

Just in case there are any kids watching, not everything looks better flat black, with red wheels and WWW.

If one (***le) is in any way a criteria for the other, maybe they already have?
