    Love the seats in this Enzo, but somehow I think it may be a scam. It looks like the description was written by a second grade child, plus it is posted by someone with no feedback for selling anything. However, I haven't seen seats like this in an Enzo before so it is worth looking at just for that.

    (I have no affiliation to the seller...THANK GOD!)

    Is the guy missing the "period" on his keyboard?

    Not to mention syntax, punctuation, believability and general pathetic-ness.

    ..and I bet he has a no money down/no income verification over funded mortgage that's jumping to 13% that he used to buy this car and impress the now-divorcing-wife when he was dating her. He also needs a crash course in divorce law.

    You'd think that if the guy really had a million $ car he needed to sell he'd get a friend to help him with his grammar.

    I suspect that this might be a picture of him.

    The S/N and owner should be pretty easy to identify from those seats. Carbon?

    Based on some searches on this site, the car in the photos is 135443 - Rosso Scuderia with red seats, delivered new in McLean, Virginia, and seen at the 2004 Cavallino Classic. It was on eBay back in 2005 (link) with the claim that it was never titled. I don't know the veracity of that claim, nor do I know the veracity of this one. Hopefully someone else can be of more assistance.

    I wouldn't bet on it. Michael Czysz posts over on Speedzilla on occasion (he is the financier behind the MotoCzysz C1). There are numerous grammatical errors and typos in his posts. You have to assume that a guy representing his dream, as well as reportedly running a successful architectual firm, would learn how to write.

    I thought he was the designer behind Motoczysz bikes as well? Not just the financier. I cant imagine anyone with that much money to buy an Enzo would really type that bad. I mean there is poor grammer and spelling, but he talks like a complete moron.

    Maybe his wife is missing her period and that's why it's for sale, not much leg room in the back! Give the seller a chance, he looks legit to me.

    The VIN matches the pictures. Unfortunately for the seller, those are the exact same pictures that were used the last time this car was (dubiously?) posted for sale on eBay. As for the owner, I think I know the current owner's name, but I don't know him like I can call or e-mail him and say, "Hey, what's up, happy new year, how's it going? Did you know that some illiterate schmuck is trying to peddle your Enzo on eBay? Say hello to the wife and kids for me."

    You're 730 if you think you're gonna get that car for 720. :)


    The most interesting thing about this car is that it's just two cars later than the Enzo upon which the P4/5 was predicated. That, and this car has some seriously cool seats.

    Michael is a friend of mine-- it's funny that you mention him. I had to go to the Enzo ad to see if it was being sold by someone who claimed to be Michael, as I know he doesn't have an Enzo, and I'm still trying to figure out his connection to this thread.

    Anyway, plenty of people with money cannot write well (myself included). However, most of those with enough money to purchase an Enzo also have enough sense to know they'd be better off hiring a broker to sell the car for them, regardless of how well they can write.
