How is the reliability on Ferrari Enzos?

If you want a reliable supercar, pick up a Mercedes SLR.

Ferrari dealerships charge $60/quart for their oil; Mercedes uses $5/quart Mobil1 for everything from their C32 AMG to their McLaren-crafted SLR.

Honestly, this has been the only truthful, albeit cynical, response.


Yes, the escort will be more reliable...then again, the engine will still be initially turning-over while Enzo is a 1/4-mile away.

Get them both! 😛 That said you'll be getting a used Enzo as the entire production run was sold out long before the first car was finished.

 
Eh Just get a Porsche 962 Dauer, they are faster than an F1 anyways. Because everyone really needs to go 250mph in a street legal version of a LeMans champion :-D

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I smell BULLSHIT!

You should at least pick a car that would be believable for you to acually afford!!!

 
also be aware that passenger tire wear will be affected by the combined weight of the silicon in the boobies of the slutty chicks you will be picking up....you might want to have those tires checked more often depending on how many of this big breasted women you stuff in the passenger seat at one time....

They seem to love riding in pairs and fondling themselves and each other as you drive your enzo from the your chateau in the french countryside.

The same people that made the McLaren F1 made the SLR... except the engine is from Mercedes this time... 😀
 
Cooling problem? Bah! If the stickers make the car faster, then all you need is a few stickers on the radiator! Make sure you cover as much as possible and it will be cold as ice! 😉
 
Xiety: Well, I just found the other thread sounded kinda stupid 🙂

GroundZero: Nah, I wanted to make it obvious 🙂
 
<puts chewing tobacco in mouth>
Well, I got me one dem fancy Fer-rare-rees.... but da last time it needed an oil change, i put good ole' Quaker State ten-dubya-thirty in there because der ain't no point in dat sixty bucks a quart fancy-shmancy synthetic stuff. And damn, if the thing didn't lock up on me when i was cruisin' down Main Street on Friday night. Dem I-talians must not know nothin' about makin' cars. So me and my buddies unhooked the engine, pulled it out with a chain thrown over the branch in Bill's backyard, and crammed in an ol' Ford 302 that was sittin in a '70 Mustang that was up on blocks in Bill's frontyard. Took forever to make it fit. But now she runs like a champ!

:beer: Agreed. 🙂
 
there is an Enzo in my neighbourhood just outside Ginza Tokyo. I have seen it on more than a dozen occasions this summer.

I have some pics, but not hosted anywhere.

Ok sorry, it was a 550, not a modena.

Wouldn't matter to me, the 550 Maranello is still a very badass car, and at least they were there to pick it up quickly....if I had the money for one I would definately buy that and a Porsche as my daily driver.
