    Was at the Naples, FL show earlier today and had the pleasure of seeing (and hearing) my first Enzo in person.

    The gentleman who owned the vehicle was extremely nice as we chatted for 10-15 minutes in the burning sun. As folks were gawking over the car - some even resting their elbows in the roof to get a momento picture, he never uttered a peep.

    Such a down to earth guy, well versed and knowledgeable - gave me tips on what to buy and what to avoid. I am sure someone on this board knows this man (or perhaps he is a member here)...in any event, a word of thanks to all those who enjoyed your car.

    I believe that this owner is basically retired but "works" at the Ferrari dealership for fun. I heard this from another Enzo owner and I think he was talking about the owner of the black car.

    Yes, same guy...I believe it was Steve Harris Ferrari if I am not mistaken - I believe he mentioned he had a P Carrera GT as well...

    That car live across the street from me (in Park City, Utah.) Owner is a great guy, he's always willing to open up the garage and let my friends and I look around. He's definitely not the type of Enzo owner who cringes when thinking about driving from Utah to Florida in an enzo! Here is a portion of his other cars:

    Yup, that's it alright! If/when you see him again, pass along a word of thanks...wish my 8 year old was at the show, would have asked for a picture of him in it...

    His name is Bruce; I hear from everyone that he's a nice guy. I almost met him in Vegas a few years ago. I hope to one day meet him.

    "Hey Bruce, what made you get a Ford GT?"

    "To do donuts in!"
    - Great Guy

    He's one of the only guys I know who will drive to the liquor store in a CGT, then complain on the way back about the rising price of Crown Royale!

    Sounds like an amazing guy. Many "typical" Ferrari owners should take a page out of this guys life and relax a little.

    When I first looked up this Enzo on the register to get the SN, he was definitely a little freaked out that I knew the SN of his car before I had even seen it!
