    Last week, while I was at Sportcar (Milan - Italy) to have my roof checked (nasty F355 Spider soft top!) I had the usual chat about the Ferrari world with the owner/chief mechanic who told me he was going to take one of his client to Maranello in order to understand what and if Ferrari will make and sell a super Enzo.
    I have no other details I am afraid but I can assure you that Sportcar is probably The Ferrari Specialist in the northern part of Italy and has been dealing with Ferrari since 1973. Hence, he does't sell smoke. Sides, this particular customer is a major collector owning all 4 the Super Ferraris + some others.

    Does anybody have any idea of what a Super Enzo could look like? (I was toying with the idea of a Club Sport Enzo with a proper manual stick... gosh it would be awesome!)

    Any idea of what s/n Ferrari is using as a test bed for this project?

    By the way, I like those plexi-windows! it reminds me the first F40s.

    She does look like a Club Sport... please Luca gives a stick. please!!!

    That are the pictures I took at Fiorano 2.5 weeks ago.
    20 selected customers have been at the factory 2 weeks ago who are able to buy a "super enzo".

    so it looks like I discovered "Hot water"...

    20 potential customers? so I do know one of them. he is Mr. O and he lives close to Milan.
    800 BHP looks like a quite amazing figure! and 950kg? that is astonishing! how could they possibly make a car so light (bearing in mind the original car is a Enzo!!!) ans still comply with the crash test regulations??

    The Super Ferraris Started with the 288 GTO. Then came the F40, F50 and Enzo. What people dont know is that these cars are all made for specific purposes, and are not intended to be Top Speed Chasing Fools. The F40 is the first car to become a member of the 200+ club. The F50 was intended to be a replica of their F1 Race Car, with no sacrifices made for comfort, entertainment or the public. This is the closest car to a Ferrari F1 racer. Most people dont know but in a straight line, the F40 will beat the F50. The Enzo was created for a tribute to the creator, and used the highest level of ferrari tech with systems to comfort the driver, the Enzo has many power features that do not exist on numerous supercars. It was also built for the 0-100-0 Record because of the Massive Ceramic Brake kit from Brembo. The Enzo beat everything including the Mclaren F1 and Koenigsegg CCR in this time. The Next Super Ferrari, could go after the Top Speed Mark, but everyone is pushing insane HP numbers these days with slapping on turbos on a high displacement engine. Top Speed = Power/Weight. Bugatti can go to 250 mph supposedly. Will anyone push the 300 mark? There has to be a limit on possible top speeds on land. I hope Ferrari puts out a car that is versatile in showing the car industry who is the boss. Also I respect Ferrari and BMW greatly because they strived to make Naturally Aspirated engines that encompass the latest in engine technology.
