Killed an Enzo today!
Alright, the Enzo wasn't racing!
It was in Los Gatos today at noon. I spotted it from about 1/2 mile away coming at me. I couldn't miss it because it was screaming yellow! He tuned left and I turned right to pull along side of him. It sounded pretty good even before I rolled the window down!
As Ferrari street cars go, I'd have to say this is one of the ugliest I've seen in a long time. Sure it is the most increadible thing to roll on DOT approved rubber but I just can't swallow all of the lines and angles. Give me the sexy curves of the 360 Modena Spyder or 575 Maranello. Maybe it was the color. Maybe it will grow on me.

Yeah, with the enzo, the less you can see the better. That must be why they made it so fast - it's gone before you can think about how ugly it was...

i'd rather you didnt say "GET RID OF" cause it was a hard decision for me to make. The CLK was the best piece of machinery my *** ever had the privilege of sitting in!
things have always been safe in this part of the middle east, no worries cause we have the 5th fleet here to keep us company!
just concerned with the aftermath of the war in iraq. Things seem to be getting out of control as many had predicted! It worries me a little!
