Enzo Ferrari
Yeah, I know its a Protege forum but did anyone catch the Autoweek article this week over the Enzo Ferrari. That thing is the most awesome car I have ever seen. 6.0L V12 producing 660HP and 485lb-ft of torque. Top speed of 215mph and 0-60 in 3.5 seconds. Paddle shifters and a stability control system tuned by Michael Schumacher himself. The entire body (seriously the entire body top and under the car) generates downforce (although at higher speeds it actually aggressively reduces downforce). Plus if you buy one (this isn't mentioned in the article but I saw it in another one) you get a matched luggage set and a racing helmet signed by the great one himself plus some other goodies. Not to mention that the seats and pedals are actually fitted to you by trained Ferrari tailors.
Check http://www.autoweek.com. At this time they haven't put the article on their website yet.
And the cost. Well if you have to ask you can't afford it. Oh alright $670k. And only 300 or so are being made. So get in line.

I orginally thought it was ugly also, but it's grown on me. Can't really argue with a F1 street car. After reading the article, I can actually visualize myself driving one 
Now, I need play the lotto

Good luck finding one for 670k. In the classifieds in the back, there's a ad on a right hand side page, for 1 million.

Wasn't there some court case a few months back regarding the 'gray market.' Ferrari didn't want people in the US to buy cars and sell'em right away. If I'm not mistaken, the ruling was Ferrari can't stop it from happening.
All the cars are spoken for. Dealers and the general public gobbled them before they were even a prototype. Hell, Schumacher can't even get one
Sure

The Enzo is a schweet ride, for sure, but I've got 4 words for you:
Sa
Leen
S

Massive AMERICAN muscle in a sleek, Euro body. That is one awesome piece of car. I could do without just a few of the little vent/body styling things - but what a shape, with braun to match:
Oh, yeah - and my Aston Martin Vanquish is on order:
They're giving me an excellent trade-in value on my Protege5, as long as I throw in my soul and my left ********, too.
Oh, to have that kind of cash to toss around. Life would certainly be more interesting......

And I bet Schumacher can have one if he asks nicely enough.

I'll post pics when I get back regardless.

I think they messed up big time on that one. Plus the F-50 looks a million times better
