I visited New Zealand's only Enzo today. It was at the dealership for one day only, before viewings in two more towns (Christchurch and Wellington), then delivery to its owner. I didn't bother to take my chequebook since it's aleady been sold.
My impression: it's HUGE! I didn't think it was anywhere near that size. I've seen smaller wheels on tractors! It's also much more beautiful in person, but I think that can be said for most supercars. I'll say my overall impression was WOW! My Dad and I looked at the other models there and decided that given the pick of the litter (Enzo excluded) we'd each take the dark blue 550 Maranello.
It was certainly a popular event! The car was surrounded in the morning when my dad and I saw it, and still surrounded when we walked past again two hours later.
It was a good day for sightings! While out walking the neighbourhood we saw two 308s (red and grey), a yellow 355, two 360 spyders (yellow and red), and a blue 550! Visiting the mothership, I guess (either that or it was just one of those neighbourhoods). Plus, there was a Lamborghini Murcielago (yellow) parked outside the Ferrari dealership when we got there. I don't know if it was a visitor, a bit of cross promotion, or the competition being cheeky, but it was brave of them to park it on the street in front of all those drooling car enthusiasts!
What a great day!

I don't like it that much! Saw it in person several times, and it made a F50 look pretty!
