I like the CGT, but, honestly, next to that Enzo, that CGT looks Average at best.

Totally, I would always take the Enzo over the CGT. I always liked the looks better. Performance wise they are only slightly different (Enzo having the slight edge). Besides that though, the Carrera is perfect.

ffr996 - yes, we picked his car up at clair on rt 1 and drove it aound boston. ****ty day though as you can see.

allanlambo - enzo was nice. im a small guy so it was a bit too roomy for me. the cgt was clearly more vocal exhast-wise. enzo visibility is very bad...

shawnC - going to get those speedcats to put as a keychain!!

amirGT2- my friend came back from tracking both of them at watkins and absolutely loved the CGT. the enzo pulled nicely on the straights. he felt more comfotable on the track to push witht he CGT but obviously the head turner was the enzo.

LSM - true, i would personally get the CGT in black to make it stand out more.

i do have the high res versions of the pics but they were too big to post on the thread.

im glad you guys liked the pics.

Does your friend with the Enzo happen to have an RS6 too by any chance? I think my dealer might have told me some stories about him and his Enzo. Pretty Ill stuff.

i dont think cost determines if its on a whole different level. it is visually more dramatic than most cars and yes, just because it says "ferrari" people start to think its the end all be all.

im sure some people will agree with me that if the CGT was a Ferrari and the Enzo was a porsche design, there will be those who will suddenly believe that the ferrari is more classic aesthetically and that porsche "overdid it". some people are such suckers for ferraris. my dad is an example.

take the 430 for example. im taking delivery of my fathers tomorrow afternoon. i think it looks like a piece of **** honestly. it has design lines all over the place that dont go anywhere and dont make sense. it looks like a chicken mc nugget from the back. my dad thinks it looks "agressive". i know a lot of people on this forum who think its beautiful. in my opinion i think its just b/c its a ferrari. If it was badged as the new NSX, or new nissan i dint think that many people would still be drooling as much.

just my opinion

If you are spending 400K on a car, you can obviously spend an additional 1 mil on another car, so I would have both if I had the money. It's too hard to choose.
