Ya pretty much the same,...little different.

Tough pick,....depends on what you are doing with it (to a certain extent). If it was only, or almost exlusively going to be used on the track,..MC12. If it was track and driving around town a bit more etc,....prob enzo. I think MC12 because it looks more racecarish though.

I think the Enzo would be the better investment. But like West said if you were going to track the car the MC12 would be a good choice.

Enzo without even thinking about it... the MC12, while very nice, kind of reminds me of a whale.

Enzo all the way.

MC12 apparently drives like shit. Although they are virtually the same car, tuning was left entirely to Maserati and thus, different from the Enzo. Plus the look is just too much for me. (Like I could afford either one, though.. )

I voted enzo because its alot more street friendly, and i would like to drive it in public to show off as well as take it to the track, but i saw that mc12 at the chicago auto show and it looks incredible in person, i think the better debate is FXX or mc12 since they are both pretty much track only, and they made the same number of each i believe? 29 i think?

Actually, Ferrari unloaded Maserati a little while ago to Fiat. Maserati will continue cooperation with Ferrari for stuff like engine and technical developments etc.

Didn't they say in TOP Gear that Maserati will be sold to Alpha Romeo. I'm not so sure.

Enzo, IMO it has more class. I love the MC12 but I'd only buy that car to track it.... and maybe scare the ricers
