Default Enzo schmenzo.... FXX Evoluzione

I know this car has been around for a bit, but it popped in my mind. This is probably ferraris greatest track monster ( non F1) imo. The FXX was already the track prepped Enzo, but for the billionaire who wants more than the already extremely potent 800 hp ferrari will give you the evoluzione for the exclusive track program. You get an extra 47.1 hp and an amzing extra 1000rpm red line bump. This puts the Ferrari evolzione at a monsterous 848 hp @ 9500 rpm ( Yeah it red lined like a motorcycle), 60 milisecond gear shifts, improved aero, and traction control. Try to imagine what it must feel like to command so much power in a machine designed purely to kill the timeclocks and competition

physics cannot stop it...air fails to slow it down...the engine propels it to breakneck speeds...its only weakness? speedbump

to be honest, i prefer the looks of MC12 Corsa better

i know they are brothers but i think the maserati version is a bit more refined in terms of looks

but of course it doesnt get the same schumacher design inputs

I really dont think I would say it looks more refined as much as I would say more conservative

I doubt that. anything is possible, but I would put my money on the Enzo killer

The MC12 looks MUCH better, I love the way the MC12 looks. I'm also a huge fan of the Saleen S7

These cars are not about looks. they are about being as close to a F1 car as possible. A man here actually has the MC12. it took him like 3 years almost to get it legal for road use and I think it cost him another $250k.

You can't drive it on the streets it's not road legal. In fact I'm pretty sure you have to keep it at the track. You buy the car and can't ever bring it home.

The Maser is beautiful, but the FXX looks far edgier and violently fast
