LOL!...I'm not a Benz fan but I think I'd have stick with the 722. Btw...check out the license plate placement in the pic of the 722. I realize it's the law but wow, what an eye-sore!
Haha!...are you sure Alonso burned the extra money? Some people are saying he's saving it to possibly buy a Ferrari in 09. Gosh I hope not!!!!
NO! For the umpteenth time: This is not Kimi's Enzo. This is the Enzo of a friend. Why? Because the pics were taken at Kimi's home in Wollerau, Switzerland. That is in the canton of Schwyz, which uses SZ on the license plate (as on the chopper, but not visible in this set of shots). The Enzo plate is ZH, which is Zurich. When Brian started this thread, I knew somebody - once again - would post these pics and claim this was Kimi's Enzo. ARGH! PS: The Enzo also does NOT belong to the other guy in the shots. That's the designer/builder of the chopper.
Andreas, are you sure that's not kimi's enzo?? I don't think you know what you're talking about. I was told that enzo was Kimi's and am pretty sure it's definately his. J/K Andreas...I'm just messin' with ya I now remember reading a while back that the enzo in that photo is not kimi's. Ok now remember, take deep breaths, you'll calm down in no time.
One of the reasons Kimi lives in Schwyz is that it is a tax heaven within Switzerland. He would be a fool to have Zurich plates on his Enzo: He would have to jump through several hoops to get Zurich plates only to pay more taxes.
from what i read, Alonso got a CLS and a SLR 722 as a gift from Mac, early last season. not sure if it's stated in the contract that they can have it back should he buy himself outta the contract
I also read that Alonso had an SLR while at McLaren. Makes sense, Webber had an M5 when he was at Williams (with BMW engines). Funnily enough Alonso did have a Renaultsport Megane company car while at Renault so he may just be trading an SLR for a Clio. http://youtube.com/watch?v=A4Gq_JZtdZU Alonso in an SLR. Not many people like him but damn the boy can drive.
Whenever F1 stars do hot laps with company sponsors in road cars.... they never wear a helmet. Too cool? Hahaha I suppose they would know not to push the car too far to endanger the sponsors.
From what I have read, at teh time these pictures were taken, Kimi was with McLaren and this was not his Enzo, but he also had one already. Check the date on the F1.com article. Also when Alonshole was asked what his most prized possession is, he said his model car collection. Collecting die casts in Europe is really huge.
haha kimi is awesome i bet his wife is gorgeous, and i love the last quote if it was america no doubt the *****es would be screaming that he's a schauvanist.
