sooo does anyone know anyone who has one... ive been tossing the idea around instead of getting the cls63amg waiting another year and possibly getting the s7... but what im worried about is its not a practical car even for a weekend car to have.. ive seen videos where they are taking boards of wood just so that it doesnt bottom out trying to get in or out of a driveway.. i mean otherwise its everyhting id want lol but i just dunno how "practical" the car is to even own.

I don't know anyone who has one but I don't think it would be as practical as a Mercedes. Its pretty low and has a very loud engine so I think for a daily driver it would be a little annoying.

lol cmon james.. i barely drive my other cars.. :chuckle you think id be driving it everyday??? jooooo nuts menggg lol im just looking for a new "late 20's crisis" toy.. lol the biggest issue i would have is just trying to get it in and out of my driveway because i have a bump at the end of the driveway to keep the rain water out and chances are it would teater totter once i got half way. .lol

i had 2 wooden boards to get in and out of mine....b/c i had a body kit and my driveway had a little slope...was a major pain in the ass if i had to go somewhere would have to leave 5-10mins early just to get out of my driveway:disgusted :yourcrazy

I dont know anyone who has one nor have I ever seen one in person but they make a twin turbo model now....

Car is fucking awesome, def get one if your going to have the $$$.

Or go for a Porsche 911 Turbo, car is bad ass and very practical.

How much are you thinking about Subracting if not paying list price?

Like 300,000 or 400,000 lmalds;fjalk;sdfjlasd;

If that is the case, BUY AN ENZO!
