A one-of-a-kind white Ferrari Enzo will be auctioned off.
RM Sotheby's will be offering the only Ferrari Enzo finished at least factory white in a 24-hour online auction beginning June 29.
According to the auction house, only 400 Enzos were built by Ferrari, including 20 "extra campionario" cars finished in substandard colors. This car (chassis 133023), which belongs to the latter group, is the only Enzo to leave the factory in Bianco Avus White.
Completed on May 22, 2003, this white Enzo also features a Nero (black) leather interior with Rosso Corsa (racing red) instrumentation and oversized carbon fiber bucket seats with 3D black cloth inserts.
The Enzo was Ferrari's flagship supercar of the early 2000s, succeeding the F40 and F50. It featured a carbon fiber monocoque chassis and a paddle-shifted six-speed transmission.
The naturally aspirated 6.0-liter V-12 engine produced 650 hp and 485 lb-ft of torque and drove only the rear wheels. The mid-mounted engine accelerates the Enzo from 0-62 mph in 3.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 217 mph. While these numbers may not seem impressive compared to today's supercars, the Enzo was one of the fastest production cars of its time.
The Enzo's monocoque and engine were also used in the Maserati MC12, but extensive modifications were made to make the MC12 race-ready. Ferrari also produced an Enzo derivative, the FXX, exclusively for circuit use.
Chassis 133023 was certified by Ferrari Classique in November 2012 and, according to the auction listing, had just undergone a full annual service at an authorized Ferrari dealer in Hong Kong; at the 2016 auction, even the wrecked and restored Enzo fetched $1.75 million, so it is highly likely that this car will sell for quite a high price.
Ferrari eventually introduced a successor to the Enzo in the form of the LaFerrari, which has become a collector's item in its own right. Now it was time for Ferrari to unveil another flagship supercar. Ferrari tends to unveil these cars every 10 years, and it has been almost a decade since the LaFerrari debuted. We are even testing the possibility of a successor to the LaFerrari.
