The standard Ferrari Enzo not good enough for you? Why not have it customised by Pininfarina.

post-20773-1155824398.jpg

Most collectors would be happy enough to just own a Ferrari — any Ferrari.

There wouldn't be many who would feel the need to remodel one, let alone a top-of-the-range Enzo worth close to $2 million.

Computer modelling was used to help design the P4/5, the shape of the Enzo being altered to take on the domed roof, rear wing and rear exhaust outlets of the 330 P4.

More than 200 components were especially made for the car.

The body is made from carbon fibre, and the entire turret is a single-shell windscreen cut to accommodate butterfly-wing doors.

The whole project probably cost Glickenhaus about $8 million.

And an interview with the owner.

I think it looks pretty cool. But for that money... that an Aston, Porka GT, Porka 997 turboS, Ford GT, big arse house, small unit up the coast, small unit down the coast, and invest the rest so you dont need to work again.

I think ferrari is such a wank.

They have cars that cost around 350,000 for a base model and then have factory options like "Handling package" and "brake package" It's a Ferrari you'd think they'd turn and stop pretty well out of the shop.

wank factor = 11 well call me a wanker cause i would swap my skyline for it anyday .good luck to bloke for daring to be different and if ya can afford the 8 mill why would ya give a rats arse what anyone else thought i know i wouldnt lol

lol.. no seriously, good on him for investing his time and effort into his passion, i wish i could make my own custom supercar

... but still that thing is so ugly it makes the original enzo look good

So what he should have done is invest in a BN Body Kit, 24" chrome Zeptana's and some pulsing neons maybe ?? :O:D

There's a Chop project for you ................ :)

Is it just me or does a stock enzo look better

Each to their own I guess, but I with you Lee. I prefer the "stock" Enzo.

Not that it matters because pics on the internet is the closest I'll ever come to owning one :D

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
