how would a browser come up with a word like "vendido" or "cipher". Great stuff these instant translators
An excerpt about it from the Ferrari press-release:
With this tale the meeting with journalists held immediately the audience with the Pope was wrapped up. During the press conference, held in the Vaticans Press Office, Jean Todt announced the President Montezemolo had decided to construct an Enzo number 400. The additional version of the limited edition 12-cylinder will be donated to Caritas before being auctioned and the proceeds sent to the victims of the tsunami in South East Asia.
Of course the built more than 400.
Prototypes, pre-production development, crash testing, they all needed cars to do that, and they didn't sell them on to the public.
They only made 399 for sale. If they are donating a 400th car to charity, that isn't changing the number of cars that were on sale.

The only reason for donating it is that it can become part of the number sold, I don't see any of the victims having any use of an Enzo, they want the equivalent value in money. Ergo, the car will be sold and 400 will be the magic number.

No it will have some meaning behinde it.
I thought they've already build 400 and put number 400 in the museum

No this will most likely be the one to go in the museum.
I thought the 400th car was for the factory museum? Does this mean that their won't be an Enzo in the museum or is their like 403 and they just bust one out of storage for the museum?
