The Ferrari Enzo is named after the company’s father, Enzo Ferrari. Why? Well, the Enzo was the best Ferrari production car of its time. The team then decided to name it FERRARI ENZO.

The first thing that I want you to know about the Enzo is that is a Ferrari. Car enthusiasts wouldn’t care what model you have as long as it is a Ferrari. The second is about its aerodynamic design. The Enzo’s aerodynamic design is inspired by the Ferrari F1. Yes. The driving experience feels the same as the F1’s. It even has the Ferrari technology that has been restricted from F1 because of its advantage over the other participants. The Enzo is mostly carbon-fiber in material. Even some parts of the dashboard!
Let me take you inside of it.
Here is a picture of the steering wheel.
Look closely. It has those tiny buttons. If you are not a car enthusiast, you would think that those are just Ferrari rubbish. Well, they’re not. The button that is least pressed is the RACE button. You might ask why. Well, it’s for you to find out.
The next thing is its transmission. It is semi-automatic and is paddle-operated. That’s what makes it like an F1! Paddle-operated transmission!
Here is a picture of the Enzo’s Dials:
Well, this review has been about the Ferrari Enzo and the Maserati MC12. Why? Because they are brothers! Maserati was under the Ferrari’s management when the MC12 was conceptualized and produced. And as I’ve said, they share the same DNA. They share almost the same V12 engine, suspension design and carbon chassis with aluminum cradles at either end, mid-engined rear-wheel drive set-up and the six speed sequential paddle-shifts.
Name: Maserati MC12
Engine: 6L Maserati V12, 630bhp @ 7,500 rpm
Price: ~ Php 47.1 million
Weight: 1535kg
Performance: 0 – 62 mph (0-100kph) in 3.8 sec
Max Speed: 205mph (330kph)
Transmission: Six Speed paddle-operated sequential manual
Compared to the digital Ferrari Enzo, the Maserati MC12 is analog. The MC12 was conceptualized and produced during the time when Maserati was under Ferrari’s supervision.
Let me take you inside the car.
Hmm. Do you think you’ve seen this interior before? Maybe. It’s almost the same as the Enzo’s! It also has that paddle-operated transmission! See the difference? The Enzo is digital while the MC12 is analog! Look closely to compare the MC12’s dials with the Enzo’s! They’re almost the same!
(More on this next time.)
Ho-hum. Nothing new to do. I have just read an article on the Bugatti Veyron. It has 1000+ bhp and… WHAT?! 1000+ b-horsepower?!

Could it beat the Koenigsegg CCR, a car that has posted a new lap record on the UK Motor Program Top Gear? According to Hans Hahnkase, a Bugatti engineer, they are disturbed by the reports of the Koenigsegg smashing the 250 mph mark. But according to Mr. Hahnkase, the the company will not succeed. “No-one is interested in a car they cannot spell,” Mr. Hahnkase added.

We had this car ever since I was a kid. I’m driving it now. I chose this car because it is economical. It features a 1.3L engine.
The only thing that I don’t like about this car is that it doesn’t have a rev meter.
See? It only has a (I’ll just change it to avoid further discussions. This is my blog. Some things here are not to be taken seriously…) speedometer, a fuel gauge, and a temperature gauge.
A rev meter is needed for the driver to know if it is the right time to shift gears or not.
Well, cars have their imperfections.
