i think that this is the best car ferrari has ever made. its the benchmark for sports cars. but i think that the new buggati veryom (not sure about the spelling) can out run enzo without breaking a sweat.

Bugatti Veyron 16/4 have many problems.
You can see the article as follow:
"Perhaps the most exciting event during the race happened not during a race but during a pace lap. The production version of the 2004 Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron was making its first official U.S. debut, and someone decided that having the Veyron act as the pace car for the Bugatti Grand Prix (Bugatti race cars from 1919-1939) was a good idea. However, something went terribly wrong as the car left turn 1. From my vantage point at the Andretti hairpin, I heard the loud, abrasive screeching of tires against pavement, and the Veyron came spinning backwards into my view. The car spun several (either two or three, I can't recall exactly), and I thought for sure that the car would hit the concrete barrier. The car ended up hitting the dirt and coming to a stop no more than a yard from the wall, facing backwards on the track. I can only imagine the panic the driver was feeling as he nearly smashed a $1.3 million car into worthless metal." ----from the article written y writer,Drew Phillips of fast-auto in 2003 Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races.
this is not a simple accident by driver-carelessness. it show that abivously 16/4 has seriously big problem in engine including decision of it's price.i guess that's why it's delayed.
how do you guys think about that? sorry to say as to bugatti in ferrari forum. Maybe i think this appearence was first to public.

The Veyron is all about straight-line speed and acceleration. I seriously doubt it's going to be any good around corners with that huge fat engine messing up the cars handling [as illustrated above, maybe?] so I think the Enzo has nothing to worry about.

I agree, but I don't think that it is because of engine weight or size. THe Veyron was not built as a race car, but rather a very very (did I mention very) powerful luxury (driver's) car. It weighs like 4300 lbs. That's a LOT. If it had been more purpose built to racing, the Enzo and F1 would have something to worry about.
