Ferrari Enzo

For those of you who don’t know who Enzo Ferrari is I just gave you a clue in the name. Yes he is the daddy and creator of the Ferrari manufacturer, but all so Ferrari’s scudaria racing team. He lived from 1900-1978 when he passed leaving his business to the family, to continue his great work. Enzo was an ex racing driver which is where he harnessed his love of speed and performance which later went into his cars. Well Ferrari decided to make a car in memory of him in 2002 and they sure made a monster using a blend of road know how with formula 1 knowhow from there racing team. This turned out to be an impressive mixture to create a raw racing machine that would make Enzo proud. Now you cannot just order an Enzo as they only made limited amounts, and no matter how much money you had or who you were you could not just buy one, you were selected by Ferrari. You needed to have owned a couple Ferrari’s before to be eligible for selection, you needed at least a million in a bank account for insurance reasons and they would contact you about if you had the option of getting gone. Then if you decided to sell the car on after a few years, Ferrari had in the purchase contract that they have to OK whoever you sell the car to and if they didn’t like it...well you best find another buyer. The Enzo marvel was and is well protected and with all the Formula 1 technology on board the car is extremely valuable even higher than the $1 million price tag that now sits on the Enzo’s for sale. Technically this car is incredible and no short cuts have been taken. A 6.0 48 valves, yes a 48 valve engine being powered by an ultra light-weight V12 produces over 650hp. This means the Enzo goes 0-60 in 3.1 seconds and 0-100 in 6.6 and on to easily over 200mph. Ferrari filled this with space age materials and mind boggling science to keep the weight down, aerodynamics up and drag reduced. Enzo would be proud of his own car that still is an iconic car.
