"Fun, but the adrenaline rush could be had elsewhere for less.."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing, people thinking I am a rich, egotistic man. Otherwise, nothing.

General comments?

The Enzo is an exhilarating love affair. Though not practical for street use, it is a very well engineered vehicle. The Enzo is a great looking car, but is not perfect. It is very uncomfortable to drive, and is a pain to use the side window. Many people on this site claim to own one, and I find that ridiculous if you do not. These cars get bad words that sometimes are not deserved, but sometimes these cars are over-rated. The Enzo does have incredible acceleration, but incredible acceleration could be achieved in a nice Z28, with much more comfort. But, I am not comparing. I am simply giving some downs. It gets horrible gas mileage, as to be expected. Many people say I am egotistic and rich, which gets old to me. I am not, and have worked my butt off to get where I am today. I am not any better than anyone here because I drive an Enzo, I simply put my pants on one leg at a time just like all of you.

Now, these cars are stupidly hard to acquire, which is why I purchased mine used from the Dupont Registry. To buy one new from the Ferrari Dealer, you must own a F40, F50, go to some driving school, and be approved before they even accept your cash. I did not want to go through that, I simply wanted to spend my money, and get my car.

Now, the car does not seem to have any problems as of now. I do usual leak-down, and wet compression test to my vehicles. I have not put too many miles on it yet, and do not intend to race it. I simply drive it to business meetings, and the occasional house showing.

I hope you guys like my review, and you probably do not believe me. And I do not care about that. I simply wanted to write a review that you can all read from a true owner. Feel free to ask any questions, and I will answer them truthfully, and thoroughly. Please do not resort to insults, they get you nowhere. I would simply like a civilized question and answer type setting. Have a happy Easter, and a safe week.
