I thought so too, but it is a Maserati and I don't think the MC12 being ultra super hard edged would really differentiate it from the Enzo. Makes me wonder what an Enzo with a big wing would do in the FIA GT?

I heard that the successor to the 550/575 was set to get the MC12 engine...I don't find it possible considering the estimated price of that engine.

no he didnt. Tom was with the MC12 waiting for him to turn up, when he got a calll from Frank saying that he had been side-swiped by a bus - frank was being driven in it by a friend cos he had recently had his license taken away.

yes - after the crash with Franks car - they were short of an Enzo for the cover shoot, so urgently had to find one - at 9:30 Franks car had been hit, and by 12:00 TG had a new Enzo for the shoot
