The Ferrari Enzo Base for 2003

Ferrari Enzo

There's been a lot of talk about the Ferrari Enzo for 2003. As a leading car in the coupe market the Enzo (and in this case specically the Base version) has maintained a high standard. The 2-door Enzo is especially appealing to broad audience, making it a perfect car to help Ferrari as a brand in general.

Stop and Go

The restyled Enzo Base is equipped with a 6.0-liter twelve -cylinder engine that utilizes 48 valves. The engine is mated to a Ferrari six-speed transaxle. This has resulted in an increase in horsepower and torque over the 2002 version.

Steering control is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The Enzo comes equipped with power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.

Statistics

The dimensions of the Enzo Base are 80.10 inches wide by 185.10 inches long. It sits 45.20 inches off the ground. It seats a standard two passengers, with 2 doors. The wheelbase of 104.30 allows for extra leg room for the rear passengers.

The listed retail price in 2003 (MSRP) was $643,330, with a dealer invoice cost of an industry-high price. This price is in line with the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 2003 Enzo is a traditional Bosch ME-7, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 29.10 gallons.

The Enzo Base received a miles-per-gallon rating of eight in-city driving and twelve when it came to highway driving. Being a gas-powered non-hybrid car, this was within normal parameters.

Parting Shots

The 2003 model year was very successful for the Ferrari Enzo. The introduction of several trim levels (along with the Base version) meant that buyers could find the version that best suited their needs.
