Did anyone from Auckland/NZ go and see the Enzo?

1 (and only one) of the 399 Enzo's was delivered into NZ a few weeks ago, and last Saturday they had a show day, so I went down and took a few (8megs worth..) photos of the Enzo, other Ferrari's and some of the other Euro cars down in Newmarket.

Enjoy!
Woo! One of my first posts here. :biggrin:

Grrrr, I saw that thread as well, but passed it by as it's title didn't give out much.
Anyway, you can lock this thread, and I'll go put my link in there.
But what a way to make an introduction huh? Making a right dick of myself.

Macro you should ask Naki what the GTR goes like mate. Since he's been a victim of it a few months back. Considering now it is pushing another 65hp easy with much better midrange smack hahah.
How did that go Naki. " And the highlight of the night was a ride in Razor's GTR. We took off up the motorway spinning all 4 wheels as I watch the needle wind off the clock. We started to approach some cars quite a ways up the road and Razor decided to starting braking as we began to come upon them as they were standing still! Cheers for the ride Razor and I will send you the cleaning bill for my undies" or something like that lmao.

It took a bit of searching but I found it. Here is what Naki had to say on the night he came up.
Just parked up after a 5 hour drive home from the city.
Went up for a couple of days 'r and r' with Spec2 girl and moondog....
an excellent weekend.:ylsuper !
great fun hooting around Auckland in some excellent Skylines,checking out the shops,the restaurants,and the weird and wonderful cars that cruise the central city.
Saturday night highlight was a spin in Razor's Skyline GT-R.As a small demonstration of the car's capabilities,he put his foot down at about 50 km/h,and spun the wheels,no mean feat at the best of times,but in a 4wd? .
I was,at that point,impressed.Did he take his foot off the throttle.?No!
In a few seconds we were off the dial,hurtling along a deserted stretch of motorway at somewhere around about 240km/h[150mph] with about 1000rpm to spare.Sadly,but wisely,he decided to button off at that point, and slowed down to accomodate the other road users who seemed to be reversing down the motorway towards us at a rate of knots.
A final demonstration on a quite sideroad had the car hurtling from standstill to 100km/h before I could say "Sh*t!!!!".
