Ferrari have 24/6/2002 announced that the name of the FX/F60 will be "Enzo
Ferrari".
The Enzo Ferrari will be unveiled to the public for the first time at the
Paris International Motor Show from the 28th of September to the 13th of October
2002,
and just 349 examples will be built.
The race track has always been the testing ground
for the advanced technological research that has later gone into Ferrari's road
cars. The very first Ferrari, built in 1947, was a 12-cylinder racing car. From
that first 12-cylinder, 126 more were born, destined for both track and road.
The Enzo Ferrari is not only the marque's latest V12, it is also a
pinnacle of excellence drawing on the experience of victories in the last four
years of the Formula 1 World Championship, thus endowed with the very latest
automobile technology.
Company founder Enzo Ferrari himself, always felt that design of the road cars
should stem from the racers. Therefore, it was entirely logical that the
company's latest creation should bear his name
The Enzo, built in a limited run of 399, is an outstanding expression of
the concept of extreme sportiness, developed for road use, yet epitomising the
most advanced concepts of Formula 1 racing technology
Ferrari set out to develop the Enzo as an integrated system designed for
extreme performance, in which even the limits of the performance achievable by
the driver were enhanced, thanks to a man-machine interface typical of Formula
1.
