Enzo vs MC12

BugattiPWR · 14-08-2006, 03:47

The Ferrari Enzo and the Maserati MC12 are virtually identical... does anyone know which is better?

I suppose the MC12 is less known because only 50 were made!

Thats a good question...

I'm waiting for TDU to be out to answer...

ok.... well the Mc12 weighs 1335kg and has 621bhp. (465.17 bhp/ton)
0-60 = 3.8 seconds.
1/4 mile = 11.3 seconds.
top speed = 205 mph..... (can probably do a lot more tho)

the enzo weighs 1365kg and has 660bhp (476bhp/ton)
0-60 = 3.65 sec
1/4 mile = 11 sec
top speed = 217 mph.... (someone has reached 240mph in theirs already)

verdict:
buy an enzo... theyre cheaper and more powerful... but as the first MC12 driver in the world said "Masserati have more of a racing history than ferrari.. and are therefore the MC12 is more 'significant'"
if you have the money then a MC12 will get you more cred points.

Enzo, i've heard many cases, and seen the above statistics that the Enzo beats the MC12. But, a friend of mine told me that the MC12 on top gear test track was faster, because the guy who lent it to them was a ex LeMans 24hr driver, and he put it around the track to get a better time. Which is quite biased, but if that is true, and they gave it to the Stig, i think the Enzo would come out on top.

Ferrari's have Prestiege and Heritage anyway, nothing beats sitting in a Ferrari, as you know and feel that your sitting in something special, a master piece from the Ferrari factory.

I mean, how many times do you see people say 'Ooo, look, its a Maserati'. Most the time its 'ooo, look, its a Ferrari'. =)

Thats just my view and partly my opinion though.

I personally would want the Enzo, a) its a ferrari and b) its a little smaller.

I suppose the MC12 wins on exclusivity though, only 50!
