    championship winning F1 car or a road car with performance you can't use on the street.

    F1 car all day every day.

    For me it's a difficult choice.

    F1 Car, once in a lifetime experience

    Enzo, an amazing experience as well, but could be used daily.

    But, if you have the ability , is either a driver, or are both special occasion cars?

    F1 car it is, keeping the La Ferrari as the DD ...

    :-D

    Dont get the comparison

    is it for investment? Enzos were selling around half this just few years ago and will probably go back down again at some point. A shumi f1 car is priceless.

    is it to take to track? F1 needs a trained pit crew. Enzo just needs you.

    I will take the f1

    Michael Schumacher did more for Ferrari than one limited production car could ever do.

    IMHO

    While the F1 is probably a better investment. It would be basically a static display. It would be boring after awhile. The Enzo would never get old.

    Sort of the same thing. I know of a boat for sale. Basically a race boat. Its original owner was indy driver Paul Tracy. To launch it requires cranes. That would get old fast, same as a pit crew, renting race tracks, etc.

    here is the boat: OffshoreOnly Classifieds - Boat Classifieds - Boat Parts

    If I had $3.5M burning a hole in my pocket, as in the question, then I must assume I would have enough liquidity / cash flow to pay for track side support and Corsa Clienti participation.

    Given that pretty basic assumption, no question in my mind. F1.

    It's just a conversation starter - discussion that I've been having here at work , as both cars are sitting here in front of me, same price point, completely different purposes...

    For fun..

    I would buy a 330 GTS and a 550 Barchetta. Then build a new garage with the leftovers...

    Yep. Without shadow of doubt I'd be on my way to Pagani right now, crawl through glass and climb a mountain of salt afterwards, if it meant I could order a manual Zonda 760.

    Should probably have some change left over for a 550, too.

    Good day.

    It is cool. But to get it off the trailer and into the water, you need a crane. Its the same deal as a race car, you need crew to run it. Both would get old fast.

    Except for the 250 GTO, this is about as close to automotive perfection as I've ever seen.

    How much of the 3.5MM would it take to mod me into being able to fit in the F1 car?

    I'll have mine inclusive of roofscoop, thanks. Paint scheme and most of the exterior of the Cinque (no LED strip under the front lights, 2nd pair of winglets and 760 wing)...in blue with Italia stripe.

    Now if you'll excuse me...I have to do...something...:eek:

    Boardwalk has both available, for $3.5mm only I would have to diversify multiple cars.
