Post Yellow Ferrari Enzo in LA

While driving on Olympic and Bundy, I spotted a yellow Enzo cruising. Has anyone seen this or have any info behind this one Enzo? I thought Enzo's weren't out yet? This thing is unreal!!

I haven't seen one but I have a friend in the DC area that said he came across a yellow one too. Word is there are only 3-4 imported so far.

Autoweek just had some stats on it, the thing did 0-60 in 3.15 and 0-100 in some 6.67. That's absolutlely F'ing insane man! In the 1/4 that thing should be running 130-135 mph trap speed. And imagine after that I bet the car just keeps pulling like that throughout the top end. I expected this thing to be awesome on the highway, didn't expect it's jump to be like that.

What a beautifull machine!

At what dealership did you see the yellow Enzo?? I've only seen a red one at the NY auto show. That car is just beautiful.

If you are asking me, I simply pulled these from the net to make the post a little more fun. I have not seen one in person.

I believe the gentleman from Boston lives down on the Cape and has an amazing collection of Ferraris (F40, F50, just about one of everything).

It's nice to see someone with the ***** to take his Enzo on the track. I'l bet most of those cars will be spending their time in a garage because owners are too frightened to put any miles on them, or GASP! get a rock chip.

It'll be interesting to see how many Carrera GTs ever see a track. I know the guy that's buying our allocated one will probably never drive the car. What a waste.

There is a guy down here in Louisiana that has a 288GTO, F40, F50, etc. I saw him about 2 months ago and asked him what he thought about the Enzo and he said "I will wait until the 'newness' frenzy runs its course, and then I will buy one."

For the record, he tracks all of his cars! Man, I love the sound of the Porsche motor on the track, but that F50 with Tubi's is simply UNREAL.

Cajun he lives in new orleans near the lakefront. I had a tangle between the black f-50 and the swampmonster on I -610 about 8 months ago.

George,

How did the race go for you against the F-50?
