I dont know, Im not really in to the whole Italian sprots car thing, or even supercars in general. especially in the US, where are you going to use it? at a track? and how hard are you actually going to push the thing on that track? think about it, you have $200,000 worth of car under you. How hard are you actually going to push that thing? I know if I had one, I'd be to timied to push hard at all, even if I could afford to destroy it. IMHO its just a status symbole, and If you konw me, I dont give a damn about status. Give me something that goes fast, handles well and wouldn't cost me an arm and a leg to replace onece I run it in to a wall. (If you think you can go racing and not expect to destroy at least one car your sadly mistaken. Every one pushes a little too hard some times).
on a side note: the first thing that poped in to my head when I saw those pictures was "damn, I bet more oil was spilled that day then the whole Exon Valdes disaster" :P
cool cars, but I wouldn't ever want one.

Ahhh! That would be so much fun to take an Enzo around that track! (Monza, Italy, home of the Formula One Italian Grand Prix).
Michael Schumacher helped develop the Enzo, and they clocked it going 350 km/h before braking going into turn one.

I brought up that point because of a story I heard from one of the guys I race with.
He was running a PDS (Performance Driving School) where you take your own car out on to an actual race track with an instructor who will teach you how to drive the track, well this one guy shows up in a Testarosa, and starts bragging about how he hit 140 mph on the way over to the track. He gets his car out on the track and is like putting around, getting passed by every body, and generally made fun off for his "Amazingly fast car". half way through the PDS, the instructor (My friend) tells him to pull in to the pits and that he is going to get the guy a different car. So they pull in, rent a Camero SS and go back on to the track. Now the guy is tearing up the track, hitting apexis...ect.
Basically the guy was too scared to push his Italian Stalian to hard because he's the one that would have to Pay if any thing broke, but with the rental, its someone elses car so he felt comfortable about flinging the thing around the track. I suspect that every one here would do the same. Sure if the Enzo or what ever wasn't yours and you didnt have to shell out the $$$ if it got wrecked you would drive the hell out of the car. But if it was yours paid for by your work I think you'd look like a little old lady out there on the track.
as far as "Owning" all the cars on the street, I dont give a damn about that. Never have, never will. The real fun is on the track. (Plus I dont race in a straight line, so 1/4 mile is out of the question)
