Based on advertised #s, the 458 Speciale should be (almost) AS FAST AS THE ENZO!

Wikipedia says the Enzo does 60mph in 3.1, and Top Gear says the 458 speciale does 60 in 3.0. I dont know all the numbers, but Im guessing the 458 may have a slightly better power to weight ratio. Will the Enzo be "eclipsed" by the 458 speciale? And if not, how close will the 458 speciale be to the Enzo's performance?

The Enzo is a 10 year old platform. Eclipse away.

Soooooo doesnt this mean that the successor-to-the-successor-to-the 458 Speciale will eclipse the LaFerrari? WHOA. If that is the case, imagine how fast the LaFerrari successor will be. WWWHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Dang I feel old. I remember being at the L.A. Auto Show when the Viper came out. I was just a pup then, but still...

I'm betting that Ferrari will be very careful about potentially overshadowing the Enzo. I don't think the speciale will be faster overall, but it might come close.

I think they will be extremely close from 0-140mph, even though the Enzo will obviously be quicker on the top end. But Ferrari Really has nothing to worry about. The Enzo is their most loved car since the F40, and is arguably the most respected Ferrari since the 250 GTO. Nothing they can do will really hurt the Enzo

Thread over:

The speciale is more than a second faster. It doesn't say for the FXX though, which I suspect may be faster than pretty much everything else (maybe even including "La Ferrari").
EDIT: the FXX is indeed almost 4 seconds faster than "LaFerrari".

I don't think that Ferrari cares based on the fact that the Enzo is an old model. I'm pretty sure both the 599 GTO and the F12 are faster than the Enzo around Fiorano.
