With the Ferrari's ridiculous $652,000 price, who can afford one? Anyone back in the 1960s who could afford a Corvette or Ford Thunderbird could afford an S/S Hemi Mopar. Anyone today who could not afford a car more expensive than a Corvette could certainly not afford a Ferrari Enzo.
Also, those Hemi-Mopars could be modifed (for a LOT less than $652,000) to the point where they could keep up with the Ferrari long after the 1/4 mile.
Anyway, the 1/4 mile was what the S/S Hemi Mopars were built for, and they had the fastest 1/4 mile time of any factory, production, unmodifed (and *affordable*) car ever. That's worth a WHOLE LOT!

Yes, but so what? Any "yeah, but's...." have nothing to do with the thread subject and the title. They might give you a cup of coffee and $0.25 for it over in the thread entitled, "Good to know that an American Muscle Car is the fastest, most-affordable production car ever that would have to be modified to do anything other than a 1/4 mile and have a hope in hell to keep up with the Enzo", but trust me, you wouldn't like it over there
