Ferrari Enzo (Paris Autoshow) - 660hp!!!

Keeping the car firmly on the pavement is important, but so is what’s under the bonnet. The Enzo is powered by a newly designed 6.0-litre V12 engine based on Ferrari’s vast Formula One experience. Output is rated at 660 horsepower with peak torque of 657 Nm. The powerplant is teamed with an F1-style transmission, which makes it possible to shift gears in a mere 150 milliseconds.

Both traction control and ABS are incorporated to aid in car control, and a system similar to the F1 “launch control” is available for very fast starts. Estimated time from a standstill to 100 km/h is 3.65 seconds, with a top speed of 350 km/h.

The front looks like F-1 style race cars.

Its going to be an amazing car, but its ugly...especially the front. My buddy saw one at a car show in the City last week, some classic/modern Italian car show. He said its just as ugly in person as in photos. They should have called it the "Gonzo." The F50s styling is nicer than this thing IMO.

But, it really doesn't matter what myself or any of us think.

Ferrari has lost its touch, or at least whoever designed that. I beleived they paid some asian guy to do it. I think they should have assigned the designer of the 360 modena for the job of designing the car that has the name of its founder.

I'm not a fan of the new design, but I'm sure the technology is unbelieveable.

The more I look at it, the more appealing it is.
