[axe s]

Just sounds like an F1 car...

looks tuff...

[MADGT4]

I enjoy/ed this video ALOT more!

[Bakes]

touche!

Thats awesome

[bozodos]

that thing is an effing wank. You don't actually own the car, only the right to use it? Sounds like every other Ferarri (i.e like a singer sewing machine until 6000rpm).

What an absurd waste of money, especially in current times.

[Marco-R34GTT]

Even Better!!!

Schumi + FXX = OMG!!

[bozodos]

I just don't get the excitement with these kind of 'cars'. Maybe if I was into go karting or F1?

[MADGT4]

With a statement like that im surprised your even into cars at all!?

[bozodos]

Nah, it's just Ferarri's in particular really, especially those like the Enzo and the FXX which are closer to an F1 car than anything street legal. I'm not interested in it if it can't be driven on a public road in some form. The engine note of that thing is like a buzzing insect close to the ear!

[SS8_Gohan]

muchos gracias Bakes and second poster... amazing car... wasn't even aware it existed, although the name sounds vaguely familiar...

so what's the deal? you can't buy these things?

[baron25]

You can buy them, but they aren't road legal - anywhere. And they stay under lock and key at Fiorano, and you only get to drive your car at Ferrari organised/endorsed track days.

But apparently they do use them for product development, so for the $squillion dollar cost, you get to be a Ferrari test driver.

EDIT: You can't actually buy one, like most of the hyperspecial ferraris now, you need to be one of Ferrari's 'preferred customers' (ie, absurdly rich and already own several Ferraris) to be invited to buy one.

[SS8_Gohan]

oh.... so they get joe public to fund the car and the R+D, but they get to keep it? bit of a rip..

ohhhhh... now i know where the FXX is familiar.... it's mentioned when people talk about the SpecV brakes! apparently the CC brakes on the SpecV are the same as the FXX

[JET-25L]

Yeah i agree... I reckon it just sounds like a buzzing insect or a go kart. Doesn't appeal to me at all but each to their own.

[Ten Four]

IMO best sounding car.

- fast-forward to 55 secs

[GT-R32]

F355 is one of my favourite sounding Ferraris, absolutely love them.

[ras1983]

I don't care much for Fezzas but check these videos out:

[THE GOD]

sounds tuff

Indeed. Have you heard a F430? Nicer IMO

[CR34M]

I don't care much for Fezzas but check these videos out:

Was built for a customer off the Enzo platform, he had that much money that he went back and asked Ferrari for permission to restyle it for him with some other makers to resemble the older Ferrari's that he loved.

Personally think it looks shit, but respect for how much work would have to go into that to transform it into what it is.
