Default Saw an Enzo last weekend... WOW

My friend called me, told me to meet him at the Ferrari dealership here in Dallas, because there was an Enzo out front. Went up there, and there it was, just sitting there, all beautiful. It was me and my friend, in our two hick Ford trucks, and some guy in an M3 with a REALLY hot girlfriend (that's what a fast bimmer will get ya ), just staring at the car. The guy in the bimmer left, and we went inside, just as some dorky lookin dude was about to walk out. Of course, it was his car, and before I could get back outside to ask him for a ride, he had already gotten in. But I made it in time to hear him start it up... WOW!!! HA!!! Maybe one of the best sounds I've ever heard!! Unlike ANYTHING else. It made my knees wobbly. Unfortunately, he didn't take off fast... but still, my best car experience to date!

I didn't have a camera!!! I felt like a moron for not having one... my friend did take a pic on his phone, though...i'll see if I can't pull it off of there. The dealership also has an F50 inside, that I need to go back and take pictures with. When I do, I promise to post.

ive had 3 enzo encounters to date, the first was at the 2002 NAIAS, the second and third were the same car at separate occasions.
the history between encounter 2,3 is this
i researched that Michigan was only getting 2 enzo ferrari's, so i was weekly attempting to find out who, since i lived near one of the wealthiest areas of the state/country per capita. it so happend a delivery of a georgeous yellow enzo was going to former Detroit Red Wing Sergi Federov. so i later that week, i was driving down I-96 from southfield when i saw a car coming up on my fast in my rearview, so naturally, i dropped to third, and let the revs fly... no sooner was i in 4th when he rocketed past me (id guess doing about 160) while i was going 98mph. i did get the tag on it "BRKAWAY" on it. god..... it sounded wonderful, amazing, graceful, grouling, intence, berzerk...
later in the month, i was driving by Jack Cauly Ferrari, and noticed it displayed in the window. it was during that time sergi had crashed his other ferrari. still gives me goosebumps

I saw the Enzo at the AutoRAI in Amsterdam it was nothing compared like in the pictures. Seeing a car with your own eyes is very different, you see the car in other proportions. But when you see a supercar driving OMG it's better than sex!

i went back to the ferrari dealership with a camera, and unfortunately sergi's enzo was gone :-/ but dylan is right, seeing a supercar in action, or at least moving at a decent velocity is a grand feeling... hard to describe.
i know after i graduate, ill be able to afford myself a testarossa f512M. then mabey something else later. but ive got at least 3 years til then

I've never seen an Enzo. The best Ferrari I have seen on the streets is a 360 Spider which is extremely rare to see here in Western Australia. Only ever see Ferraris at car shows now and then. See quite a few new Porsches driving around though. Has anyone ever seen an Enzo in Australia on the streets?
