That thing sounds amazing!

 

Yeah, but the purpose of the FXX isn't so much style (although with anything from Ferrari, that's a factor) - it's reputed to be a rolling test bed for the successor to the Enzo. It wouldn't surprise me if the reason the tailpipes are up high is that it's a more direct path out of the car from the headers. The car makes like 800hp, and with a 7-figure pricetag, I'm sure they didn't cut any corners on the development. Most likely that was the most efficient way of getting the exhaust out of the car.

 

It blows me away that this country, being as **** as it is about certain vehicle laws (ie, the CARB exemption number requirement in CA, for example), allows cars like this to be licensed for street use. I'm not sure I'd risk a run to the store for smokes without wearing a helmet...

 

Take it a step further, the basic overall form is there back to the f50 and subsequently to the f40, without much change at all. and ferarri got that one right close to 25 YEARS AGO.

 

^^^as I saw the rear end first thing came to mind was the f40. Yea ferrari has mastered aerodynamics long time ago.

 

It looked like that person behind the wheel was a woman...

 

It looks almost identicle to the Koninzeghenzegin (sp) CCR
