You dont have to explain how a car looks to a hot chick. I'll take the Enzo in a close toss up.

No different than taking a Hyundai and putting a ton of power in it. A Ferrari is made for going fast. Pieces breaking & coming off the Chrysler-typical. An old muscle car has one purpose and going up against a Ferrari is not one of them. Myself, still looking for that perfect Camaro RS, but not to race Ferrari's.

You mean pieces coming off the Ferrari? I've got about 20 bits and pieces from the 360 I keep in a bag...

As much as I love classic muscle, I'd go with the Enzo all the way. This car isn't a 360, a 430, or a 599, it's an Enzo.

I'd definitely go for the Enzo as well! I get into this debate all the time regarding highly modified cars like a Supra vs a Lamborghini, Ferrari, etc. Sure, you can do tons of mods to it and even spend less than the Lamborghini and even make it faster, but it's still a Supra at the end of the day. Give me the Lamborghini/Ferrari/etc. any day and I don't give a s***t if you beat me!!!

For a rolling brick damn that 'Cuda can move. But yeah, considering neither would be anything other than a Weekend car, I'd take the Enzo, but massive respect for the Cuda. Wonder what the build cost is on one of these?

I'd say that they put at least $200K if not more into the Cuda given the complete tubular frame fabrication. The retrofitted suspension and drivetrain out of a Viper was pretty trick. To build a streetable musclecar from the past that can grip in the twisties and top 200mph takes some skill (and money). LMC is my dream shop and you can see pics of the build here:
