    My assistant told me today that she saw a green Enzo with an open top in and around Palm Beach Gardens in Florida. Does anyone know of such a car?

    Lonnie, you have to keep better control of the nitrous :)

    Alex-

    I only asked because I remember there was an enzo some years back that was modified to be open topped.
    I think the doors were changed to allow it. I thought this deep green Enzo she described might have been it. And BTW-sucking up the nitrous has never altered my judgement in the past.

    That Enzo was totalled and it's now being rebuilt but I doubt he would paint it green. It resides in Utah.

    I think I'm the only one on the planet that'd order a green Enzo...but lucky for the factory I can't afford it.

    Would love to see pics if true.

    The Enzo would look so much better if it were in more colours than the typical red we know of. I have seen some great photoshops of the Enzo in some other colours and it looked fantastic, Candy Apple Red being my favourite, i think, each to their own though.

    If i was rebuilding an Enzo, I would definitely go for something more unique which i assume would most likely create more value.

    Well, I have to say that if you wanted a green Enzo, I don't think anyone would look at your car and go "no way I'd be seen in that". Heh, my wife says she'd get hers in Pink if it was an option. Of course then, I would definitely never drive it :) ....or only at night ;)

    I surmised it was the assistant who overdosed on the gas. I know you have immunity at this point in the game :)

    I caught her when she was definitely not under the influence of nitrous and showed her the picture of the red enzo with the open roof. She said that was exactly the car she saw with an open top in GREEN... in Boynton Beach Florida.

    I'd go for the Td F Blue - The FXX looks amazing in that color

    Yes. Richard was severely injured but I believe he has recovered well. From what I have heard he is eager to get the car back on the road. Jim said that he sold Richard several body panels from the Enzo that he used to build the P4/5.

    Silver?

    Dark metallic red?

    Metallic Blue?

    Gunmetal?

    These are both non-existant or at least very rare in the Enzo world but i would have thought a silver or an unusual rare colour would make it more collectable. Anyway, its just my opinion.

    I saw a Photoshop of an Enzo as I said in Deep Metallic red and it looked absolutely gorgeous.

    I dont know, maybe Ferrari owners just have an unhealthy obsession with flat reds! I mean I know you guys are red red red all the way but i bet the Enzo would look stunning in a rich metallic blue.
