That has to be the worst post in this whole thread.

Word.

And ccarlisi, just for your information, Porsche has recently announced that they'll make only around 1250 Carrera GT's, instead of the initally proclaimed 1500, because of the tough market situation.

Doubt they'll make much profit (if any).

I doubt it's even close to the fastest thing on a race track. It's not road legal, so don't bother comparing it to road cars. If you think that looks even ok, you have no taste.

I think you just took that honor.

It still has its place. Id love to have a race car that is supported and kept running by a manufacturer. Sorta like a challenge car that you can use for any series and the company does the maintenance.

enzo lights are much much better than these ugly things.

i think comparing it to road cars will come, but what will be intresting is what will come as the R&D that comes from this car, so we just have to wait and see, still the Enzo kicks mayor ass, mostly to every single supercar.

i guess were all free to like and dislike whatever we want, and i bet you more and more people will start liking it in a while. And remember its JUST A CONCEPT, so most of the looks wont make it to the final product. Why bitch so much about it ?

What a horrible looking car. I can't believe they have the nerve to charge that much money for what is basically a warmed over Enzo. The Enzo is over priced to begin with.

Here we go:

I never said the car is good looking, the car looks like it does because thats how the wind tunell shaped it. Its purpose is to basicly be a race car, race cars have a purpose to go fast, no one gives a shit what a race car looks like because most of the time they dont look all that great with big wings, huge air intakes etc, thats why people love the new Aston so much, because its a gorgeous race car, a rarity.

I have no taste? I was born with taste buddy.

Who are you to put a price on the Enzo? Its clearly selling for twice as much as the factory sticker price, and this is people making it cost that much, not the factory, so you over priced argument makes no sense. Its a highly limited production car from the most famous marque in the world and its one of the fastest things around, over priced my ass. THe Macca was overpriced.

How is it a warmed over Enzo? Uses basic enzo chassis, FYI all auto makers do that, they use a lot of basic parts for different models of their cars. Hence you can find the Vette V8 in the CTS etc...

Do you know what a 575GTC costs from factory? I guess not. Find out and then tell me if the FXX is over priced. It costs a mill just to get a basic 575 with a spare engine, here your getting something much faster, and much more exculsive for less the double the price.

Your post was just a load of hate, only valid comment there was that you didnt like the looks, all the rest was hatefull nonsense.

So keep the honours.

i must agree with SFDMALEX. the Enzo is a beautiful car that is apparently hold its value increasingly well. it is one of the most desired cars in the world and tehy have jsut improved it by a lot this car is not street legal for a reason as SFD said. it is a racecar.

its just a concept, read dude, its not even road legal, its for development of new cars, one of those might the become the greatest supercar ever

ferrari just want to make more money from the engine they spent years building, so they've threw it in a car and called it the Enzo, then they used it again in the MC12 and now they made somthing that looks so horribol and called it the fxx.. omg!

am with u all the way bro.. the car is a mess, they took of the rear lights in the enzo and put these ugly exhaust tips intead, the car hasn't got side mirrors and the dirver can't even see whats behind his back! and why do ferrari sell there cars much more expensive then others? couse they think that they make more proper cars then other companys.. and they convinced ppl that the Enzo is the best car ever, so they get the honor to choose who to own it!!

as TT says all this cars started from scratch and headed to different directions, and they have done the same thing through the years, as well as porsche, mb, bmw and all the brands do the same, take the info from previous cars and then develop new ones. Same thing with the engines.

And ill say it once again, this cars is just a CONCEPT made to develop new cars, looks of supercars in early development arent that good. Right ? Why is this ?? cause they are made to perform and not to have the best looks, the looks come in the final production car.. And looks are to sell, and theyre result of the lines made for the car to have a certain performance.
Think of the FXX as a test mule theyre selling, is it that hard ??? why dont people get it ???
Its not a production car !!!! Its made to help develop new cars !! Its a concept !!! READ, READ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just found this and didn't see it on here. This one has no striping and different exhaust outlets. Sorry if I missed it and it's a repost. Oh and sorry for the quality it's a magazine scan.

TT · 07-12-2005, 06:35 PM

Yep that car was seen some months ago testing at Fiorano.. getting ready to launch the FXX obviously
