    Carbon fiber, aluminum, steel alloy, unobtanium, kryptonite all might as well be saran wrap at the speeds that these cars are wrecked at.

    Basically the drivers structure is very strong and the nose and tail are quick release/replace even during a race.

    That said I remain hopeful we'll keep her between the lines.

    In carbon, the 3/4 rear angle & direct rear shot of the cockpit and aero exit slats reminds me of the B2 Stealth Bomber. She's looking great!

    Happy New Year to all!

    I find it very interesting that this car has many of the front end styling cues that we have seen on the handful of renderings which depict/speculate the next generation Enzo.

    While this car is a stand-alone marvel, I think it would be incredible if even the smallest details from this car found their way to next gen production- especially something as special as the next Enzo. I love how Ferrari uses hints of the cars that have inspired the production model.

    yeah, i know, but i click play and can read the message "this video is not available in your country"
    is it marchettino's video? because tuesday i could see that and today it's forbidden in germany... (btw. if it's marchettino's: wow, just wow, such an amazing car. great work!)
    don't know, maybe it has something to do with the music...

    Jim,

    so great to see the progress, congratulations to you and the team! I bet there are a few former Ford executives from the 60's that are cheering for you somewhere out there. Take it to 'em!
