Was pretty sure the enzo couldn't be road registered in QLD and possibly Australia. Could be wrong though.

Arh yes you speak the truth....

It could not be registered in standard format. Due to its pure performance design it did not comply with our laws due to exhaust pollution and noise. Also the car is made of complete carbon fibre except the body with is mostly fibre glass and composite materials. Major mods would have to be made to get it registered in QLD or Aus for that matter.

But with the money to buy one ($2 mill) then you can afford the 50 odd grand i assume it would cost to modify. Im sure you wont see a monster tacho in an enzo tho.

IM so pissed off... I see so many Skylines driving around, and i know they notice me. yet no one has posted saying they have seen me.... ;)

Seriously, has no one seen me driving around North Brissy?

Meh

Ive Seen you before :D

Where'd you get 120 from? 399 were made, then just this year Ferrari made one more to be auctioned off to aid the Tsunami victims.

Sorry.... They made 120 in the first batch (pre-ordered) I didnt read the whole thing.

The enzo i saw is not really an enzo. Its a kit car. You can buy one as a turn key package for around 120g's with a real ferrari motor. I had a customer today who builds cobra's and clubmans.... He was very helpful. He said he could build one if a wanted but it would be very expensive due to the cost of the plans. Plus you need the panels which are produced in the US and their worth half the price of the car.

So sorry... I was jaw dropped when i saw it and it sounded like a ferrari. So i assumed it was the real deal. He said there are a few kicking around and will become a common seen once the price on the kit comes down.

Oh ok, so it wasnt an enzo then :P

Ferrari asked people to buy them anyway, I think there were only 1 or 2 people here that were on 'the list'.

But if it doesnt have a 'race' button, then it aint an enzo!

I saw lots of skylines today, but I was in Sydney again, so I got NO idea of the street names.

Hmm that's odd. I thought Ferrari were always going to produce 349 of them but announced later another 50 due to popular demand. Anyway, the kit car thing sounds interesting. Especially since Ferrari went on a suing spree a few years back for kitcar manufacturers and practically wiped out a lot of them. In particular the 250 GTO replica kits based on the S30 shell... Anyway, I tried googling but found nothing. Do you have any links about this Enzo kit car? Do you know what Ferrari engine it uses?

I dont know where to start looking. Maby call a kit car builder and ask them about it. Yes it was always planned to build an odd number of cars. Then the extra one disrupted they nirvana of the car. Some still say on the ferrari owners club it should have never been done.

But quite frankly i dont care.... 399-400 whats the difference.

Just means more chance of seeing one driving down the road.

As for the motor. Like any kit car you could adapt it to any engine. Ie. If you were on a budget then you may use a LS1 engine or something. Like once i wired a clubman kit car with an sr20det engine. Instead of the usuall 4age toyote motor generally used.

Why would anyone spend 120 thou on a replica Ferrari?

Let alone anyone on here!!!!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
