    The description reads "IRL race driver Danica Patrick of USA gets out of a Ferrari during the previews to the US F1 Grand Prix on June 16, 2005 in Indianapolis, Indiana."

    Judging from the roofline and air intake, it looks like an Enzo but the doors don't open vertically. Anyone?

    I Don't think that is a Ferrari. It looks like a Corvette.

    It's an NSX (door handles and glove comparment's lack of airbag suggest '91)
    But I could be wrong.

    Looks like a NSX to me too.

    Another example of a stupid journalist oblivious about a car they are writing about.... Hey how about that "F60" that crashed in Malibu....... :eek:

    It is an NSX and it's not a '91 as the roof is body colored rather than black. Her Indy car is/was powered by Honda.

    Thanks guys. I can usually look at any partial picture and know exactly what F-car it is. No wonder I couldn't figure it out.

    Acura NSX, not Honda, exactly. If you get my drift.

    That NSX had a lovely exhaust note! thanks for sharing. Looks like a great place to drive except your on the wrong side of the road!

    Makes me thing that a NSX would be a great starting off point to the world of exotics.

    cheers
