EngineThis is a replica of the high performance V-12 that rests in this animal! It took about 15-18 hours (off and on) to construct these 22 pieces, and I still need to put the cam covers on! Pieces range 2mm-2 1/2 inches long. CAN'T YOU ALMOST HEAR AND FEEL IT!
ENGINE The Enzo is a mid-engined car with a 43.9/56.1 front/rear weight distribution. The engine is Ferrari's F140 65° V12 with 4 valves per cylinder, dual overhead cams and variable valve timing. Bosch Motronic ME7 fuel injection is used and the engine is naturally aspirated. It displaces 5998 cc (366 in³) and produces 660 PS (485 kW; 651 hp) at 7800 rpm and 657 N·m (485 lb·ft) at 5500 rpm.[6] The redline is 8000 rpm. PERFORMANCE The Enzo can accelerate to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3.14 seconds[11] and can reach 100 mph (160 km/h) in 6.6 seconds.[6] The ¼ mile (~400 m) time is 11.0 at 136 mph (219 km/h) and the top speed has been recorded to be as high as 350 kilometres per hour (220 mph).[12] It is rated at 12 miles per US gallon (20 L/100 km; 14 mpg-imp) in the city and 18 miles per US gallon (13 L/100 km; 22 mpg-imp) on the highway. Evo magazine tested the Enzo on the famed Nordschleife Circuit and ran a 7:25.21 lap time! The Enzo in the test had a broken electronic damper.

Body
The body (shell) is painted a high gloss Ferrari red, to attract the attention of anyone within range. Starting from the nose to the tail you can almost see the "jet-like" appearance from which it receives it's inspiration.
BODY Just 400 examples were built of the Enzo, which featured advanced composite bodywork and a carbon-fibre and aluminium honeycomb sandwich chassis and was equipped with a 5998cc 65° V12 producing 660hp. The car boasted extremely advanced aerodynamics of clear F1 inspiration, with downforce that reached a maximum of 775 kg at 300 km/h, and that then gradually decreased to 585 kg at its maximum speed of 350 km/h.
