....were yesterday and today (friday/saturday) in Lime Rock Park.  I'm going and was curious if anyone else knew about this.  I went to it last year and an Enzo followed us home (it was kinda weird, but cool nonetheless). 

Uhh... so yeah, it's pretty cool, but i'm mad that it's raining today.  I'll be sure to post some pictures tonight if anyone wants to see them.

NO YOU HAVENT

there are only 70 enzos in existence, and to ger one you have to own the F40 the F50 and many other Ferraris.

your "wealthy ex-girlfriend" would have to have parents worth many hundreds of millions, and be fucking stupid enough to let a teenager drive the fastest and rarest ferarri in existence.

stop lying you little queer, you suck at it.

you didnt get owned. The guy who said they only made 70 of them just got owned by you. But you totally just ruined it.

I would say the pope got owned the worst. he got a 1 of a kind special edition enzo and he probaly nevergot to drive it. he got to ride in the popemobile but not the pope enzo

70 went to North america


so unless you live in saudi arabia or happen to be a European aristocrat, 70 is the only number that matters.

and they built 349

the additional cars were sold before they decided to sell them.

the last car was a charity to the pope, and one of THE ONLY ENZOS AVAILABLE TO THE OPEN MARKET

generally car production and sales are done by continent or country



you didn't own shit, you just quoted the number that doesn't mean anything.

don't forget the FXX........the rarest Enzo of them all. Plus Enzo's are not that hard to get if you have the cash. I bought the DuPont registry ( i am way too poor to afford any of those cars) but some Ferrari dealers have like 10 of them.

hmm... so i'm uploading the pictures now because i got home late on saturday and i didnt feel good sunday and i had to work today.

and yes, there was 2 enzos there, one red (followed us home last year) and one yellow one.  The FXX was there, the Mazerati supercar thing and a Pagani Zonda was there.  The Zonda was simply amazing.  I would have taken more pictures but my camera died

who the hell says you have to own tons of other ferraris? if you have enough cash you can buy whatever the hell you want.. doesn't matter if it's your first or 50th car.

the '85 288 GTO Berlinetta is the rarest road car that ferrari has produced in close to 40 years. if you're really that interested, google t ofind other rare ferraris from pre-1980's. there's tons.

the Enzo is very fast. it's also very rare, but don't think that just because a car's one or both of those that the kid didn't have a chance to drive it. i've driven lots of ferraris, both brand new and classic collector cars. then again, i worked at a porsche dealer where the owner was a HUGE collector and racer. you never know what his situation was/is, so until you do, don't bash him for sharing a story.
