Kind of makes me irritated. This is not just a car. This is automotive history that this clown has tossed to the side. At least sell it on your own. The car is probably worth 1.5-1.6 million based on current sales prices. Takes some serious zeros in the bank to toss that aside. Even if the guy is a billionaire I have no respect for him . Obviously he is one of those clowns who drives cars like this for status and probably has no clue about cars

It would seem that it would be very easy for one to find out who the owner is. These cars were not sold to just anyone. You had to apply to buy 1 and had to show you had previousily owned Ferrari's prior. But if this was some rich business man obviousily it was not profitable to keep. Really make you wish they interviewed the owner if hes alive to hear the real story. What did Rick James say... "Cocaine is a hell of a drug"

My friend is from Dubai, she says a ton of Americans went over got high paying positions , bought homes and cars they could not afford in the long run, then the economy crashed and all those Americans left, they packed up what they could and came back to the US, in the end it sucks but it is just a car

The Enzo is more than a just a car. Its a modern automotive icon. A Piece of Ferrari history. A rare and collectable piece of art that you can drive. An engineering master piece. The only car in Ferrari history to carry the name of the founder Enzo Ferrari.

Bet they will be attending that auction... seems like if the officials in Dubai were on the ball they would have some indoor storage for these types of vechicles. Just saying if the vechicle has a market value of over 1 million you should throw a tarp or something on it.

Yup, that is what I was thinking as well. If they really care about their cars,especially one of their most rarest, they would buy it back in restore it to original condition. I bet that they most likely won't do it though.
