The Enzo reimagined.... Jim's Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina

WOW! Granted, if you transformed what I know about aerodynamics into gunpowder, it wouldn't even blow your nose. The lines from the top of the cabin start at the same point. But by the time you get to the front, it is a completely different car. Jim, do you know anything about the downforce difference? Your car has such a steeper slope that I would think that it is producing a lot more downforce, but what do I know.

Thanks Michiel.

 

P 4/5 has about 2X the downforce of an Enzo which is the max you want to subject street springs to. The main advantage of the nose is the better approach angle to enter driveways or clear speed bumps.

Best

 

Wow, the P4/5 is a MUCH better looking design than the Enzo... it's what a Ferrari of the factory SHOULD look like.

 

Agreed. My only question is if it could be produced in series at a competitive price.

 

Going over both designs in depth, it is amazing to see how even the Enzo can look dated and what a technically vast design improvement the P4/5 is compared to the elementary lines of the Enzo.

Jim, is the P4/5 ever going to come to the Lone Star state? I'd sure like to see it.

 

Ever? 4 Sure.

 

Are you apble to dial/change the suspension, like the electromanetic types or are you using the standard Enzo suspension?

 

Standard Enzo.

 

Please give us Texans a heads up when that's going to happen.

 

Jim, what's the sound system you use for your iPod?

Pretty simple one we made. I pod earphone out put to an amp to speakers. Works well.

 

Any idea on show-ups in Europe this year?

 

Not this year.

 

That's it?

Not this thing?

Why is a stereo worth an F40? "Sound quality" How is it THAT good???

Beats me...

 

Don't know any audiophiles do you? They make us look sane.

Nice!! It's really cool to look at the differences. I really like the nose on the P4/5. Ferrari has a way of tucking the front wheel up under the front windshield and I've always thought it looked funny. The shorter nose on the 4/5 looks way better with the wheel position.

 

I finished reading through the whole thread a while ago and always failed to find the words to express my outmost admiration and respect for your passion and what this passion created. For what it is worth, this Italian Ferrari nut thinks that the P4/5 is the most beautiful modern (and maybe not only) Ferrari to ever leave the factory gates. There is not much to say that has not been said aleady, so I am going to limit myself by thanking you for allowing this dream to be materialized and furthermore for sharing your automotive passion with so many: Grazie.

If possible, I would love to take a look at the beautiful beast in person. Will the P4/5 go to Villa d’Este next year?

At some point she'll be back to run the Targa Florio again.

Thanks!

 

If she does that would great. I'd love to go watch the Targa Florio for the first time (in fact, it would be my first time in Sicily). It must have been quite a race to watch in the good old days (sometimes I wish I was born a few decades earlier).
