I saw a new GT-40 at one of the Ford dealerships when I was in Denver about a month ago, but they said it wasn't for sale. The tires on those things are wiiiiiide and that engine sittin in the back is pretty cool too.

GM had to pay money back or something a few weeks ago because there was an agreement with FIAT. the plan was put in place awhile ago where they would have to buy all of Fiat or pay back their share. GM decided on the latter.

The Enzo is so much better than the GT. The GT is nice, but it is a 40+ year old design, which still looks good but isnt really up to the same standards, especially with the Enzo. not to mention it wasnt the mark iv design which was much faster than the mark 1. The enzo looks odd but has unbeatable streetcar aerodynamics.

As far as the original post, I have not heard lately from anyone I know inside Ford about another attempt at purchasing Ferrari.

As far as which car is better? If price is no problem, who would take a pass on the Enzo? You need a cool million to buy one today used. To buy one new you had to have certain "ferrari" connections like back in the day with the 959. As far as the Ford GT not being a supercar? Well Ford thinks it is and performance wise they are very close all the way across the board. I have not had the chance to drive one yet but plan on in the near future. It is very comfortable inside. I have not sat or driven in an Enzo.

If I had to choose, I wouldn't pick either one ( of course cost no option ). I would buy a 2005 S7. 750 h.p. Top speed 240mph. Thanks.
