Enzo is the King of Supercars
With all the car magazines lately doing comparisons between the Enzo, CGT and SLR, it is pretty clear that the Enzo is in a league of its own. Also, I'm surprised that not much has been made of the Enzo absolutely blowing away the McLaren F1's previous 0-100-0mph record by more than half a second.
This is coming from someone who is a Porsche lover who would've loved to see the Enzo get trounced. But it didn't and so give credit where credit is due.

It accelerates better that's true but on a track, the CGT is not behind so i don't think it is in a league of its own. Wait and see if Best Motoring can compare both on the same time

I want to see a Speed 12-Enzo-Koenigsegg comparison. Those three cars are much more comparable IMO.

Its definetly better than the CGT and SLR but not in a different league ... , i would love to see it against the Koenigsegg CC8S but i think it will win also

First, i don't believe it's a league of it own. I believe the Enzo is better then the SLR(love the SLR though) But not better then the Carrera GT. I think the CGT and Enzo are equal. The Enzo wins in performance, but the Carrera GT is amazing. I also believe the Zonda is competition, it may not seem like it. But remember, the C12S develops 553 ft-lbs of torque @ 4,050 rpm. If you get the optional sports exhaust, it brings the C12S up to 600bhp and 580tq. I believe due to the weight of the Zonda, it is capable of 3.4 seconds( 0-60)
I think the Zonda/Koenigsegg/Enzo/Carrera GT are in the same league. But i think the Murcielago and SLR are in a different league.

Remember the CGT is a barebone car , the Enzo is full of amazing technology , i have no doubts that the Enzo will beat any supercar in the road today , and its definatyly better than a Zonda or a Koenigsegg ... maybe the CGT has a little chance against it

I believe the Enzo will beat most of the supercars on a track(CC8S might be able to touch it) In a straight line in think there are a few cars will be able to touch it.
"and its definatyly better than a Zonda or a Koenigsegg "
That's your opinion,.

So that means the Speed 12 would pwn both?

But rights, it should. The Speed 12 is amazing, but the problem i hear about the Speed 12 is it is very hard to drive and the wheels won't stop spinning.

I believe the Enzo is an enormously capable supercar, but the CGT and Zonda are extremely well built and very fast machines capable of fighting with an Enzo in a lot of aspects.
If raw speed is the issue, i think the McLaren and Koenigsegg are above the Enzo.

McLaren has flawed aerodynamics though. It's supposedly pretty scary when cornering at high speeds.

To my understanding the F1 doesn't have flawed aerodynamic. It's the suspension set up. It appears to body roll like crazy. The body leans out and i hear it's scary. But off course, i hear the reason for the suspension having that affect is because it is a soft. Soaking bumps and etc.

I´m afraid it is the better of the three, I would have loved to see the CGT on top but the Enzo seems to be just a little better under most circumstances.
