The electrical system/plumbing/cooling/exhaust/fire system are all quite different from an Enzo. It meets all applicable world wide motor vehicle standards including vision/roll over/crash/epa/dot.
It’s a one of one.

It is a bit more than a re-bodied Enzo. It is a fully engineered car that was developed in the wind tunnel, is lower/wider/shorter, has less front over hang which makes it much easier to drive on the street, contains over 200 fully engineered unique assemblies, components, sub frames, weighs substantially less, has lower drag, is more balanced, has more downforce, unique wheels, different tires, different interior, liquid coolant catalytic converters that leave the air it ingests cleaner than the air it encounters, is faster 0-100 kph, has a higher top end and is discussed in the next issue of Car and Driver in greater detail…

Think –
Appreciate the feedback but… currently am the owner of a 275 GTB/4 alloy, a 365 GTS/4, and a 246 GTS as well as a 360 Stradale. As far as knowing anything regarding the history of Ferrari, please note that Pininfarina is spelled with a “i” as opposed to the “a” you use in your spelling of Pinanfarina. Check your facts before you choose to attack because you disagree with an OPINION.
As far as the P3/P4, i am in agreement that it might possibly be the very finest car ever manufactured by Ferrari. I can also appreciate Pininfarina being commisioned to turn an Enzo into a modern day P4 by a discriminating owner.
But please, it is nothing more than a rebodied Enzo, a car that was officially designed and imported with the US market in mind. The electrical system is all ENZO, so it can be serviced in the US by any certified Ferrari Service Center.
I can, but choose not to, would rather spend my money on older, rarer Ferrari collectables. Again, appreciate the feedback.

this guy took an enzo, one of the best cars ever and converted it into an NSX, what a Schmuck! Ferrari really should not allow their badges to grace this disgrace

Dude, I don’t give a rat’s ass if I can’t own it or not, I wouldn’t *want* to drive such a POS, ever. Saying that however, that 2010 Viper is rumoured to be vastly improved, so…you never know.

only an idiot like 1c3d0g would think you could actually buy this car or that it is an over priced ferrari. I know you have no way of wrapping your mind around it, but Mr. Glickenhaus is so rich and so bored with his money that hey took his brand new enzo, with the wrapping still on the seats and sent it to pininfarina to do a custom build. HE initiated it, probably since he is a diehard ferrari collect and owns an actual P4, one of the most expensive cars in the world (like 12 million or something right?) i actually think he owns 2 of them but thats besides the point ICEDAWG…. YOU or ME or anybody really could never go and buy this car.

Another overpriced POS Ferrari that can be beaten by a car that costs 10 times less…only an idiot would buy this stupid car.

If I had an enzo, and some carbon fibre, and some time, I could do that for a bit less then 3 million,

Why didn’t the douchebag back up and take some better shots…

but AQ dont feel bad… because the car in those renderings is pretty ugly, and it would be disappointing if thats what it really looked like.

By: Think!

AQ… that car looks nothing like the real thing, not even close actually. the nose is way to short and well everything else is wrong too, including the exhaust location. that was just someones best guess, and it wasnt very good.

I’ve seen pictures of this car in the pininfarina viewing courtyard and in studio shots… it was only about 90% completed, but it is insane, wider than an Enzo. It has the classic P4 exhaust white exhaust tubes, but the dont come out the back, they come out the top of the rear decklid, it’s insane. Rear end visually looks open like the classic le mans and can am cup race cars did, so it’s completely meshed and black and has huge round taillights that appear to be floating in the field of all black. The front spoiler runs the entire width of the car then flicks up at the sides towards the front tires… everyone is in for a visual treat at pebble beach, these teaser images dont do it any justice.

Word of warning… Don’t let Stephan Erickson drive this one. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be inside a glass dome as it explodes into a million peices.

By: Renton

Renton — Mon, 17 Jul 2006 18:31:51 +0000

Ferrari………the best.

That said, I have no idea what this car looks like, nor do I care b/c one offs and customs mean zero to me.

It would be nice to be able to commission Pininfarina to make you your own personel 1 of a kind car. Especially one based on an Enzo.
