There's no way I'd pick a Corvette over Enzo.

Enzo is something only %0.0000001 of people on this planet can own. I'd like to be one of them.

The Enzo would require more maintenance, and that maintenance would be more costly. Remember, no Ferrari is intended to be driven more than 1000 miles per year.

Enzo owner wouldn't care about cost. Lingelfelter owner would as it costs 1/11th of the Enzo.

my co-worker is rich as hell, like he doesn't need to work but he's here to bust our balls.. he had 1 ferrari.. and waited 3 year for the one he just got.. and he's loaded as hell.. he flys from San Fran to NYC monday morning and goes back friday night to work...

so having money doesn't mean you dont have to wait at least 1 year.. or more for it..

one car is better because it does faster in teh quater mile. woopdeedoo....its only one part of the equation. I'd like to see the ligenajhffeltererere;er corvette run a 4 hour race againt an ferarri.

I'd take an enzo in a heart beat, though for practicallity (somethign I could [feel safe about] drive every day), i'd pick a corvette C6-R.

A corvette will never be "equal" to a enzo. Each and every car has their own special thing about it. Ask Jay Leno this (though he doesn't own an enzo, he does own many many cars).

People are such fools. They call it ferrari Enzo. It is Enzo Ferrari not the other way around..... All these magazines screw it up too, I just laugh everytime I here ppl talkin about the Ferrari Enzo lol.

Anyways, unless you buy it from a current owner, they are all gone. Ferrari stopped making and selling them.

No.. the name of the person it's named after is Enzo Ferrari.. but the car itself is called a Ferrari Enzo..

Nope. Max Mosley is slowly turning it to a spec series. 2006 will have those V8s... one spec tire... along with those stupid endurance rules. Bleh.

LeMans

And which is more impressive? LeMans or F1?

They're both impressive in their respective categories. If Le Mans doesn't impress you then it doesn't.

Nascar is impressive in its respective category as well.... doesn't mean its more impressive than F1

I'm talking about Ferrari = F1 and Porsche = Le Mans

If you don't think Porsche's sportscar heritage is impressive then that basically discounts everything else outside Formula One. Do you think Honda's racing history in F1 is impressive?

:p I think it's impressive even if I'm not a fanboy. Their GP pedigree on 2 wheels is unmatched though. :)

why...

Modern Ferraris are synonoumous with an individual acquiring wealth quickly. You can't buy class.

Ah, the supposed snobbery of the old rich. Most of the new rich are exponentially wealthier than the old rich, so the old rich try a "class" or prototypical arrogance approach when dealing with the new rich. The new rich don't care about that; they've got more money!
So true..

"Your family didn't own any slaves! You have no class!"
