I can't give you the complete story but basically it's his old yellow enzo. He sent it to edo competition, for a fxx inspired aero kit. And the engine got a thorough once over by edo comp, so now I believe it puts out 840hp from a bored and stroked 6.3l(stock enzo 6.0l)(the authentic fxx evo is supposed to put out 860hp), has an aftermarket tcu retune so it shifts faster. But unlike the authentic fxx this car is street legal. I'm not sure if Ferrari approves but it is very fast, and sounds unreal.

Wish I saw the 458 in flesh. Black CGT cruising around canyon meadows last night. Sickest thing Ive seen in a while, photo perfect overcast this morning, cruising on Deerfoot near Glenmore and spotted a red 430 spyder, its was lightly raining and the top was down...

Ferrari 458 spotted. Had only enough to snap a few from the back and a bit from the front. It sounds great and looks so good in person. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks for the shots Dan! Here is a video of it at Race City: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2QT3Q1Xfg0&feature=player_embedded
Sounds nice..........too bad it looks like crap. I've reserved commenting on the car until I really saw a lot of pics of it, and while certain aspects of the side and 3/4 front profile have the right lines, those lights (F+R), the grilles (F+R), and that 3 pipe exhaust (WTF were they thinking anyways ?) simply drive me batsheet.
I believe there are a confirmed 19 F-Cars (at least!) coming to the Stanley Park show on the 17th. Should be a great turnout, great show. Unfortunately, I'm back in the States and won't be there for it!
I do kind of agree, but mostly on the front corners of the hood, those corner gaps just basically look like a ridiculously fitted hood. I want to like it and maybe it will grow on me, but I am not feeling it as of right now. I don't mind the exhaust or even the lights, but those corners on that hood are an EPIC FAIL..INMHO of course.
Tony.... You nailed it. The front end of the car screams "parts bin" to me.........like they couldn't quite figure out the look they wanted and used little bits of someone elses cars to finish it, thus the cobbled together ill fitting look. Love the lines of the fenders, doors and body tough......real slick and Italian. The 430 and 360 overall were much, much, better than this car.
Actually, it's going to be something like 25-28 cars. It is going to be an amazing display by the FCA Alberta Chapter.
That is a nice turnout, and a good list with a variety of models. Wish I could make it. Hope everyone enjoys it.
Great show down in Stanley Park this afternoon! Tremendous gathering of cars and people. It was by far the best outdoor car show I have been to in Calgary. The 458 looked much better in person (although sitting it next to 483hp's Scuderia, it was hard to not to be drawn back to the Scud..) Always nice chatting with 483hp, great guy. Here are some photos from my point and shoot: The show: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/1-1.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/2-2.jpg 458 Italia: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/3.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/4.jpg F40 and Testarossa Spider: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/5.jpg White 430: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/6.jpg 430 Scuderia: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/7.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/8.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/9.jpg 456: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/10.jpg 575M: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/11.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e212/rmkf550/12.jpg
Thanks for the pics. It was a great day. 2 F40's and the 458, wow! I video'd a lot of it but it will take me a couple days to get them up on youtube, I will post back when they are up.

I love how that 458 italia looks. Has to be one of my all time favs, first for a new age ferrari. But my fav ferrari still remains a certain f430. With a F1 gearbox in it
Was driving south on 101 st in downtown Edmonton, saw a bunch of the ZR cars outside Lux Steakhouse: Rosso Rubino F430 Spider, Rosso Corso California, Dan's MC12 too! Anybody manage to get any pictures?
Hey, this is for the Calgary guys or if any Alberta guys know this answer, I need a litre of oil for my F430, where can I find it, do I have to go to Ferrari of Alberta? I would assume it is the Shell oil that is supposed to be in it as it had it's last oil change at a Ferrari dealership in Tampa Bay Florida. Thanks
