A night in South Beach in Florida wouldn't be complete without seeing some of the most amazing cars on the face of the earth.  On a recent trip to South Beach among Lamborghini's and "average" Ferrari's I had the priviledge of seeing a rare Ferrari Enzo.  This red beauty was parked outside a club on Ocean Blvd at about 9pm, just as the club crowd was just starting to arrive to the area.

The Ferrari Enzo is a car named after the founder of the company, Enzo Ferrari. With only 400 cars produced between 2002 and 2004, it's safe to say that this is a rare car.  With a V12 engine and 651 horsepower, they're powerful and capable of doing 0-60mph in less than 4 seconds!!

Depending on where you live, you may only get the chance to see one or two of these cars "in the wild", although you will see them at auto shows and exhibits if you attend such events.    The car is actually called the Enzo Ferrari officially, but among auto enthusiasts, just calling it an Enzo should suffice.    Originally just 349 cars were built and they sold quickly at almost $650,000 US, but after strong demand Ferrari made 50 more, making it 399 units.  The last car to be made was the 400th, which was auctioned off to benefit the victims of the Tsunami in 2004.  Today an Enzo typically sells for over $1,000,000.  For most of us, a diecast Ferrari Enzo is as close as we may get to owning an incredible car like this!
