    This sure beats Tom Hanks' Maserati in that episode of Busom Buddies where they are stranded in the mountain cabin. It didn't even have a tape deck.

    I've yet to see an Enzo in the flesh, much less with engine bay opened up like a prom date. I have seen a GT in such a state of undress, at a track day, and it was beautiful. Sinful. I wanted to shank the douchebag who got to drive it and take it from him.

    @Turboner: I saw an Enzo once at a car show. A car show at GA Tech's parking lot. A car show without rope around the cars or anyone really watching over the vehicles. At least it seemed no one was watching over them. That's what I thought until I was asked, not so pleasantly, to move along. I did snap a few pictures though before they got me...

    If I had a Ford GT, I wouldn't park it. I'd just drive it! But if I did park it, it would be protected.

    @skaycog was here: That device reminds me of the terrible smell you get when you open up some toy made in a "low-cost-country" with lower-cost plastic.. how it makes you want to retch a little when you let the air out of a beach ball, for example. That beautiful car enveloped by those VOC's .. makes me shudder .. how will they ever get the smell out of the car.

    Delicious.

    The original GT40's mission was a gigantic middle finger directed squarely at Ferrari. Here's to carrying on the family motto!
