A 217.5 mph top speed and a 0-62 mph sprint time of 3.65 seconds make the strangely-labelled Enzo Ferrari the fastest road car the company has ever produced. Named after the company's founder, who died in 1988, it's the fourth in a series of limited edition Ferraris that began with the 288 GTO of 1984, followed by the F40 of 1987 and the F50 of 1995. This mid-engined, carbonfibre, V12-powered, two-seater supercar will cost "not less than £420,000", says Ferrari, which intends making just 349 copies. The Enzo owes much to Formula One technology in its make-up, from its carbonfibre construction to the F1 sequential-shift transmission and a massive set of carbon-ceramic brake discs. Despite offering a staggering 660 bhp, Ferrari claims that the Enzo is easy to drive, the aim being to offer drivers less skilled than Michael Schumacher the chance to experience a little of what the great man deals with on a Sunday afternoon. And he should know, because he helped develop the Enzo. Though he reckons it's still not close to a F1 experience, this car will bring you nearer to it than any other road car, he says. So while the legendary McLaren F1 may have a higher top speed and is perhaps more stringently engineered, the Enzo is reckoned to be easier to drive fast and hard. And it's cheaper, too.

Yeah same thing for me if I was flithy rich, but when the Bugatti EB16/4 Veyron with the 1,000 hp 4-turbo V-16 motor comes out this fall, The Enzo will be :Owned: by the Bugatti.


However I read about it in Car and Driver and I was like :wtf: that a guy in NC who owns an Enzo went thru set of brakes after only 2k miles on it for over $20,000! Plus Ferrari will void warranty if different oil is used in oil change other than the oil specified by Ferrari that goes for $60 a QUART! That's one hella expensive oil change!

Have a picture of that car?
 
and I got a surprise....wanna know which manufacturer owns Bugatti?


Hint: Break down the "Bugatti" name in 2 syllables and the 1st syllable will remind u of a very popular car whose journey started in Nazi Germany and ended 60 years later in Mexico.
