    Seeing as how Ken's career has shifted a little bit and the hot debate going on about his design and Jim's one-off creation in a previous thread, I thought I'd throw the question out to everyone. If you had the choice, would you rather have the Enzo of the P4/5, assuming it was a production model? (No offense, Jim). And Enzo owners, please speak up.

    Enzo. P4/5 is, imo, a step backwards and ugly.

    I don't know if any other FChatter's feel the same as I do, but you couldn't GIVE me an Enzo. Seriously.

    Visually Jim's car is breathtakingly beautiful, and the Enzo is not.

    Given my position I wouldn't kick either one out of the garage, but Mr G definitely has something incredibly special in his hands. :)

    I wish Ferrari had leaned in that direction with the original Enzo design and I know I'm not alone in that feeling.

    Although I really like the P 4/5 it looks kind of kit-car to me, almost plastic in away. Enzo for me

    Don't like the looks of the Enzo. Really like what Jim has done. If I ever have the choice, it's an easy one: P4/5

    JMO YMMV

    P4/5 is beautiful but it's not a unique design imo, it's a modified/updated design. I'd give it to the Enzo even though it's not as pretty! The thing about the Enzo is that from certain angles it's looks pure F1 and I think thats it's saving grace.

    Whilst I have the utmost respect for Jim and his passion and love of the P3/4 cars one of the wonderful things about Ferrari is that they are forward thinking in their technology and design - When the Enzo came out it was tomorrows Ferrari, not yesterdays.

    oh I 'd take an Enzo if you gave me and then I'd sell it and get a 288GTO and an F40.

    We know that the price of P4/5 is much higher as an Enzo...
    So take the P4/5, sell it and buy an 288 GTO, F40, F50 and you must have enough to buy also an Enzo!

    Dammit that was my idea! Except I'd probably get a Muira rather than the 288........(gasp)

    I would bet the younger you are the more you would like the enzo, the older the p4/5.

    I am not much older but since I like the looks of the older ferraris, I like the p4/5 much more than the enzo.

    P 4/5! I'd paint it black, although an Enzo would be nice, it just looks weird.

    P4/5 without hesitation. The Schmenzo has always been a disaster aesthetically

    Wow, everyone is almost 50/50 on this. I'd go for a Blacked out Enzo with red seats though myself.... however, I wasn't around when the P 3/4 was so maybe I have a different viewpoint. :)

    I think the Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina is beautiful; gorgeous even, and pays a stylish and functional homage to some of the greatest, most stunning racecars from years gone by.

    With that said, nothing quite stirs the deepest, thickest parts of my soul like an Enzo - especially a black one. To me, there is no bad angle, no flaws, no mistakes, no "oops". It is, for all intents and purposes, the most perfect, flawless, beautiful, gorgeous, stunning, jaw-dropping example of transportation that all of existence will ever know.

    There is nothing more powerful in its presence than the Enzo. There is nothing more aggressive in its silence than the Enzo. There is simply nothing ...but the Enzo.

    The Enzo looks like a machine, the P4/5 looks like a Ferrari.

    I'd go for the P4/5 everytime.

    No wonder they had to fire the designer...he should have had the honor to just commit Hari-Kari, knowing that nothing ever before or after could touch his lifetime masterpiece...

    James - (who would rather have one of those Argentine copies of the type 35 Bugatti than any Enzo any day).

    That's exactly how I feel, too... Nothing anyone has ever made - and nothing any will ever make in the future - will ever come close to the Enzo. It's just that far ahead, that much more above and beyond anything anyone could ever conceive. Ferrari and Pininfarina jumped the shark with the Enzo; it's all downhill from here.
