Yeah, red Ferraris are a pandemic. Beautiful car though.

I read a guy go on a tirade about them once, complaining mostly how it was still too heavy and how most modern sports cars are just too piggish and that the closest one to a real 'sports car' was the Lotus Elise, but even that lacked enough horsepower to qualify. I think the particular fellow in question was a big canyon driving afficionado. Just a tidbit.

Wow, I've never seen so many in one picture.

Hey, have you seen the new F430 coming out. I swear, forget a house. I'm putting a huge fat down on that car...haha.

I was wondering the same thing. I thought those cars are super rare to come by. Maybe those were taken in Italy near the factory?

I was thinking the same thing. These cars are so rare that Ferrari won't even give up one for car magazines to test. They have to borrow one from a brave and willing owner.

truthfully if you have that much money whats stopping you from a new paint job. I highly doubt these beasts came in white!!!! someone correct me if i am wrong.

just like the yellow F50 in texas, could easily be a completly custom paint job.

Yeah, that's right about Ferrari only making 399 Enzo's. As for the colour, as far as I know, they only came in red (which the majority were), black, and yellow (being the rarest colour). As for the other colours shown in those pics (blue, silver and white) they were more than likely custom paintjobs.
As for the yellow F50 you saw, that's normal, they came in red, yellow, silver, and black right from Ferrari's factory in Maranello, Italy

ok, i got a question for all of you.

you knwo how there are front plate laws? well, you think if you were rollin down the street in an enzo and rolled past like 20 cops they would even give a ****? cause you know the enzo doesnt even have a spot for one and i sure as hell would not drill a hoel in that CF for one. i think they would be too busy going "damn!" to give a rats *** about the plate.

You know the ghetto rules. You would have to put it in your windshield...haha. I dunno, but it would kill the car to hang a plate in front of that F1 style nose.

I believe, but someone correct me if I'm wrong, that if there simply is no room on the nose of the vehicle, a front plate is not needed. Maybe I'm wrong, but I really doubt they would make you put a plate on the front of an Enzo.

With it being so hard to buy the things, you'd think they would have a contract clause that you couldnt paint it or something. It probably drops the value down alot anyway, I know if I was lucky enough to score me one of those, I wouldnt paint it...

ONLY MY OPINION!......
Enzo have a horrible front!!
I know they are exotic, but look at that F430, exotic too and looks really good.
But the Enzo's front is just ugly.

Naw, I use to think the Enzo was ugly too. But it starts to grow on you, especially after you see a couple videos of it. The nose fits the car very well.
