its not improssible to build a G35C to be faster than an enzo...

might be unlikely, it is definitely "expensive," but it's not impossible.
with enough money, any car can be fast.

Wow! If that is true, that is NUTS! It does say Beverly Hills....so this dude could have very well dropped some SERIOUS coin into the G........but claiming to be faster than those exotics is kinda funny....

Those rims are gross too

While it might have the power, I don't imagine that it would hook-up like an Enzo off the line. You know, if I was going to make such a claim, I think i'd offer some timeslips... ...or at least quote 1/4 mile times.

Kind of makes you wonder why he's selling. It's not to make a profit if he's spent over $100K and he's willing to sell it for only $70K. Sounds like someone found out that the reality of owning/driving such a beast isn't nearly as nice as it might have seemed on paper. A brand new car and now it's a tempermental monster.

While I love the Enzo, I don't live in the land of OEM performance figures only. Like many others, I know that the fastest OEM performer doesn't mean you'll take any and all challengers on the street. Once on the street, you simply can't bank on every car having the same stats that it did from the factory. I used to see that realization hit the faces of many drivers back when I was sporting the '97 Mistu. GSX. But in the end, that new car ended up being somewhat of a tempermental monster. Fast as ****, but well-founded concerns about reliability were never far away
