    Lightbulb Enzo Ferrari's Dream

    I don’t know if you are familiar with Enzo Ferrari (I hope you are), well this man didnt want to create just the fastest car... he wanted to create a car that didn’t have to slow down trough curves, a car that was perfect in every sense... but he never said anything about having the fastest car...

    I think that a Ferrari is about handling and acceleration, not top speed... sure, you can go 295 km/h (190 mph)... but the point that Enzo made in 1929 was not about having the highest top speed... it was about winning because of your curving capability, fantastic acceleration and overall excelence. When you say Ferrari, you refer to the tradition, the heritage and the legend behind the name.
    If you are natural, you are cool and if you are cool you must be a CCK

    A yellow Enzo on the Gumball recorded a top speed of 366km/h (227mph)

    Thumbs up Ferrari

    The reason that they didn't try to beat the Mc F1 is because they are Ferrari, and they don't have to. Owning a Ferrari is as much about style as it is about speed. The Enzo is a mix between the two.

    Anyway Ferrari beats McLaren onto F1 circuits... but they're F1 so it isn't the same thing. My point of view is that I prefer better handling and acceleration than a so high top speed... It's more fun to be competitive on a circuit than in the desert or on an oval track!

    I think thats a bunch of bull, I mean, they are probably just trying to make the Enzo look better (which is already overrated). Seriously, I love ferrari, but that just sounds like bullshit

    Thumbs up Enzo!!!

    i read an article on the enzo in the magazine 'Roan & Track'. it was given a 1500 mile road test & the stats of the enzo were compared with the McLaren f1 & Saleen S7. it beat them in all categories & made new records in best 0-60, best 1/4 mile, best slalom & 0-80 braking & was given the title of World's Best Performing Sports Car. it was after that that i started appreciating the Enzo.

    The Enzo doesn't do anything new.

    It doesn't have the highest top speed

    It doesn't accelerate the fastest

    It doesn't have any radical innovations in technology

    It doesn't look that great (in my opinion)

    It is merely another fast Ferrari

    hee-hee.

    I once drove business colleagues from Grenoble to Geneva, after we got on the motorway conversation became very subdued. Took me 30 minutes to realise that they'd NEVER been above 55mph in their life and I was doing the ton

    It's what you get used to.
