    Ok, so saturday I was outside Maranello in egham when I heard this noise not unlike a plane. I looked around to see a black Maserati MC12 come hammering by being chased at an extreme rate of knots by a black Enzo, this in turn being chased by a dark grey F430!!!!

    Absolutely awesome, even the salesmen were shocked.

    I didnt think they did MC12's in black, it was hard to tell what it was. It did have an extremely distinctive plate though.

    I heard Lucas MC 12 is naked CF . But there are prob other very priviledged customers who ordered their Maser in a special combo.

    CF makes sense actually, it looked a strange kind of black. The reg plate was a single digit followed by "JET"

    There are other rumoured Black MC12 sightings on Pistonheads I think - the Jet plate plus black Enzo suggests Jay Kay to me

    Must have been an amazing sight! I'd love to see an MC12 some time, I love that car!



    I thought that all road-going MC12s were the same because no options were offered?

    Arrived at my flat the two weekends ago and saw that a new resident had brought with them a black on black 430. To be honest i'm really not a fan of the car but its each to their own....

    I think I've seen the same MC12 too. There is also an enzo nearby who has the plate P1 LOT and a matt black 360 spider so maybe its the same guy.

    The enzo and 360 are left under covers on his drive but its clear what they are :)

    ... I know about an all Blue Maserati MC12 from Switzerland (got a lot of pics of it), and a Silver one located here in Italy.... But this black and/or carbonfiber MC12 is new to me! I am sure it is wonderful to see... The only thing: should have RED interiors, so it would be BAD TO THE BONE!!!

    If ANYONE can take pictures of it and email them to me, or simply posting here using Imageshack, would be great! Me and a friend of mine are currently trying to develop an MC12 Register, we know for sure of a Blue, Silver and White MC12 as particular colours, but this is the first time i heaed of it!
    So if really ANYONE can help... Thanks really!
