Ferrari's 60th anniversary.

[RS6]

I hope this is actually properly stripped out like the F40, and unlike the Enzo. What's the point in all of these luxuries when, as a road car, the Enzo is rubbish. I also hope it has a proper gearbox, but I can guarentee that it won't.

The Enzo is a very well engineered car but I think it's way too overpowered. Only Schumacher can possibly control all that power. What makes you think the rich boys can do so? The Enzo is great on paper and on a track, but a rich man will never wring every last bit out of it. Something even more powerful than the Enzo will be made but will be even more uncontrolable.

..the mc12 was built based on the enzo..AFTER the enzo. So how could the enzo have looked like the mc12 while being built?

True, horsepower it seems is just becoming a status symbol, something to used for bragging rights. The reasoning goes: if the Veyron has 1001 hp, how could the top Ferrari only have 600?

When it comes to wringing the last bits of performance out of any car, its only the pros that can do that. Most people can't even wring the most out of their normal cars.

your absolutely right
i think that ferrari will make a light weight car with massive amounts of bHP
but if they want to go after the veyron's hp numbers they should make it heavier imo

[The_Canuck]

i think they should just strip a mc12 of all comforts lighten it, raise horespower 50-100BHP, paint it red and slap a ferrari emblem on it.

Rummor has it the next ferrari will have revolutionary elctronics such as high speed internet and a stove, while keeping weight below a tone.
do I smell a new Batmobile?

yes, ive also heard that, but the inside scoop also hints at a deep fryer and the worlds smallest 2,000,000,000GBKB microproccessercomputationalaerospaceengineer

I reckon if they do anything at all, it'd just be a special edition car, like a limited edition 430, 575 or 612 or something along those lines. Or they might reveal something, like the 600

This the future they have chosen for themselves : a rich man's wow-machine-toy.

The car's origional name is the F60. But they decided it was the ultimate Ferrari so they named it after Enzo.

The F50 was unveiled in 1995, so the 'F60' should have been unveiled in 2003. I would highly doubt there will ever be a F60. IIRC the Enzo is known internally as the F140 and the Modena F131.

True but the F50 sold until 1997, the Anniversary year.

I would like to see you shift faster than Enzo's auto-clutch.
