    Originally owned by hockey player Sergei Federov; Sergio Pininfarina attended the delivery. This car was once featured on Speed's Dream Car Garage. Federov was rumored to sell it so that he could focus on an F1 car he was buying. Cauley Ferrari serviced the car exclusively, and sold it to FerrariChat member LV Eric. A year and a half later, it was for sale again through Exclusive Motorcars in California. Then Symbolic had it for sale in the Spring of 2007, then again last summer. In September, it was for sale through The Auto Gallery.

    It's a very early US Enzo; one of the first dozen if I'm not mistaken.

    Why would they remove the window tint? It looked badass like that!

    Awesome color combonation.

    Quick ?: I am 6'6'', would I even be able to fit in, yet alone comfortably drive an Enzo?

    It is an early Enzo as you say, about the 30th production car worldwide...

    Going in chronological order, it comes up as 79th in my (incomplete) database. Strike the first dozen or so from the list as prototypes and it's still in the 50s. Of course, with that said, there's something to be said about 'chronology' not always being so ...chronological. :)

    Never been a fan of yellow cars, but then again any color would look good on this car.

    I guess I would just have to redo what they've undone, no big deal.

    This is the car I have my eye on. The last owner put about 450 miles on the car. I will do it differently...

    It was, but now removed. Sergei made all of his cars like this, not sure if he still does. I lived down the street from him when he owned this Enzo.

    Once for about a week, I tried going darker than this Enzo, and I had some issues seeing street lines painted on the ground. I still put windshield tint on my cars, just at a lighter level that's decent for night.

    I saw his Scuderia last summer, and it didn't seem to have the windshield tinted.

    If you just tint it 50% on the front it makes a difference with basically little effect at night. 35% is getting a little bit iffy depending on the size of the front windshield. But damn does it make a car look so good!

    No.

    That's it. 50%.

    It gives the cockpit a different feel all-around...

    That looks wicked. Always wanted to see it when Federov lived here in Michigan. Never did. The tint looked great, very aggresive.

    Just thinking, wonder what Challenge rims would look like on an Enzo? Would be cool to see, especially ball-polished.
