Cant you guys just stop? Stick to the cars, and dont make it personal. There are other ways of venting your anger, and this just turns out looking childish and stupid. Other people read these threads too, so please dont pollute the forums.

On the main point : The enzo is beginning to grow on me, and i think it looks fantastic. I just wish it didnt have the flappy paddly gearboxy. oh well.

I think they i'll produce 400 but only sell 399.
The one left is probably for the Ferrari exhibitions, or to keep on display at Ferrari HQ.

As said by the man himself: "Always produce 1 car less than what you think you can sell"

Yeah but was it the f40 that they were supposed to build like 500 and ended up building far more like 1500? It must be tempting to do this given the demnad for the enzo and fiat aren't exactly weatlthy!!!
