Bob nice pictures, i jus love that enzo engine! Not a big fan of the enzo though, but id deffinately drive one if i had the money to waste, i just love all that carbon fiber in the engine bay, but makes you think could ferrari make a car without all of the expensive carbon fiber accesories, im sure it would lower the price, maybe make it more affordable for us NORMAL people. You didnt get to test drive one of them did you? If so LET US KNOW

the "carbon fiber accesories" aren't for looks its for weight that is real carbon fiber not the fake stuff that the ricers like to put on cars. this helps keep the weight low. ferrari's F1 cars are 350 lbs under weight which means they have to add weights- anywhere they want. they put them under the car to keep the center of gravity down.
as far as 5 bangers go volvo has one that is available in various levels of tune from under 200hp to 300, not bad for a 2.4L.

Composites are much stronger and lighter than any ferrous material.
Not to mention corrosion resistant, etc. etc.
I wish my old Super Duty had a carbon fibre chassis...
And bugger the Ferrari's and Lambo's I want that Quattroporte... Man they sounds good.

Yah id love to have those in my 83 6.9 pickup, sure make driving a lot easier lol. I think youll be seeing them more often in future cars once they get all the bugs worked out and all, i know aston marton was having some problems with theirs but im sure theyll bee seen in some future maybe even american cars.
