Predatory looks, alien-dimension performance, easy to drive (relatively), lovingly constructed... and a brain-blowing experience
Predatory looks, impractically wide, a trifle pricey, small numbers mean you're unlikely to see one
Probably the last word in boy's toys - for now
A 217.5 mph top speed and a 0-62 mph sprint time of 3.65 seconds make the strangely-labelled Enzo Ferrari the fastest road car the company has ever produced. Named after the company's founder, who died in 1988, it's the fourth in a series of limited edition Ferraris that began with the 288 GTO of 1984, followed by the F40 of 1987 and the F50 of 1995. This mid-engined, carbonfibre, V12-powered, two-seater supercar will cost "not less than £420,000", says Ferrari, which intends making just 349 copies. The Enzo owes much to Formula One technology in its make-up, from its carbonfibre construction to the F1 sequential-shift transmission and a massive set of carbon-ceramic brake discs. Despite offering a staggering 660 bhp, Ferrari claims that the Enzo is easy to drive, the aim being to offer drivers less skilled than Michael Schumacher the chance to experience a little of what the great man deals with on a Sunday afternoon. And he should know, because he helped develop the Enzo. Though he reckons it's still not close to a F1 experience, this car will bring you nearer to it than any other road car, he says. So while the legendary McLaren F1 may have a higher top speed and is perhaps more stringently engineered, the Enzo is reckoned to be easier to drive fast and hard. And it's cheaper, too.
