Unique colour combination of Nero DS over Verde (Extracampionario) Interior. Delivered new to Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay. Featured in June 2003 edition of CAR Magazine.
Named after the company's founder, the Ferrari Enzo was unveiled at the 2002 Paris Motor Show as the most technologically advanced road car Maranello had ever built. Conceived at the height of Ferrari's Formula 1 dominance, it distilled the lessons of that era into a machine for the road.
Its carbon-fibre monocoque carried a naturally aspirated 6.0-litre V12 producing 660 PS, driving the rear wheels through an F1-style paddle-shift gearbox. Carbon-ceramic brakes and active aerodynamics allowed it to exceed 350 km/h while remaining composed. Ken Okuyama's design for Pininfarina was shaped by airflow rather than fashion, its pointed nose a direct reference to Ferrari's contemporary Grand Prix cars.
Production was limited to 399 cars, with a 400th built for Pope John Paul II. Ownership was by invitation, largely reserved for Ferrari's most loyal clients, making the Enzo one of the most exclusive cars of its era and a cornerstone of Ferrari's hypercar lineage, between the F50 and the LaFerrari.
Our Example
This Enzo was delivered new to Jay Kay, frontman of Jamiroquai and a renowned Ferrari enthusiast. It is finished in a unique colour combination of Nero DS paintwork over a Verde (Extracampionario) interior, giving it a character entirely its own among the Enzo production run.
Far from being hidden away, the car was used extensively in the early years of his ownership. It was a regular sight around London, and Jay Kay even drove it up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, cementing his position as one of the highest-profile celebrity car enthusiasts of his generation.
The car's significance was recognised from the very start, when it was featured in the June 2003 edition of CAR Magazine. Having covered just 12,600 km, it is an Enzo that combines a celebrated first owner with a specification found on no other example.
