"Inside, the charcoal-hued cave of bare carbon fiber is all business. Sparse rubber floormats are the only covering over the glistening cured-resin skin of the carbon-fiber tub. The taut, French-seamed leather upholsters only the front of the bare carbon-fiber buckets, and the dashboard, also carbon fiber, has the look of being only half-finished with fist-size gaps. You can see air-vent ducts snaking in the shadows and the various joints and splines of the steering column. With the Enzo, the engineering is purposefully laid bare for all to ogle."

you forgot to add the gas millage:
8 miles to the gallon.
whoo-hoo.
29 gallon tank?
what does that mean...? 232 miles on a tank, if you don't push it too hard. since it's a enzo, you probibly will, so like 200-220 miles to the tank? then it's almost $60 to fill it back up!!
in a week, i'd spend almost $90 on gas? my civic i spend like $30 max.
but i guess it's easer to get a hot date in the enzo. you get what you pay for....

I was at Wal Mart the other day and I saw a U-haul truck going through the parking lot towing a Lambo Diablo on a trailer. Kind of a strange combination.
