    I would love to be any of those journalist who got to drive those cars but what a strange feeling it would be to be getting into a Porshe Carrera GT and feel like your getting the worst end of the deal. Not to say that it is a weak car by any means but I would rather drive the other three before the Porshe.

    According to them a few issues back that car nudged out the Zonda and Ferrari F430 as the best overall drivers car, at least in that comparo. From what I've heard it's not the least incredible of the cars, just the most overlooked.

    I do think it's a great car but I'd rather have the Zonda if just for the sound that thing makes.

    The Zonda is owned by Harry Metcalfe who works at evo. So the 7.3 was easier to get hold of for a test than an F, or F CS for that matter.

    And the F CS sounds more glorious than anything else on the planet!

    Does a subscription to EVO really cost 78 pounds for a year? Isn't that like 140.00? Anyone know where I can get the subscription any cheaper?

    The enzo is actually faster in the straight line then the Carrera GT, aswell as top speed. But you have to keep in mind that its not only the car which has to do its job, its the driver aswell.

    Yes, it does. And no, you can't. Just wait a month and buy it at Barnes and Noble for 11 bucks. It's cheaper to buy it a month late than to subsribe.

    The car is definitely red, but it doesn't mean much. For all we know the Ferrari driver was in 4th or 5th when he should have been in 3rd(pure example)

    Nothing since the cars were unveiled several years ago has indicated the CGT was quicker than the Enzo in a straightline anywhere in the speed range.

    That was most defintely an unscientific race to say the least. Two guys rolling up, playing around, nailing the throttle at different times. The Enzo has already been proven faster in official tests. But it's not faster to the point where you can be caught napping or against a better driver and still have the advantage.

    That Zonda S ain`t quite stock, it has 600Hp.

    And it`s funny how everybody speaks about Enzo acc when there are some interesting facts in that article.

    For example, when it comes to twisty mountain roads , they were thinking that the Enzo was the only one that could keep up with the Bugatti, they don`t even talk about the other 2 cars.

    Oh it looked silver on my screen. But the CGT does make its peak power at 8600 RPM so that could have to do a lot with a rolling start. Not that he would start at 8600 RPM but it makes its power at higher RPMs than the Enzo if im not mistaken..
