My first Enzo Ferrari and my second 16 studs wide car.
About this creation
I started working on this car in February but I didn't actually start building the car with bricks until a little over a month ago. The way I build cars is I first study the car's shape, then I build it using Lego bricks, then I make some final modifications. All together, this car took three months to build. I won't talk about the history of Ferrari since most of you who are reading this already know.
The front.
The side.
The rear.
Details
My brother took these pictures for me. By now you've probably already noticed that this car does not have working lights, but it does have glow in the dark headlights. Sadly, I was unable to capture a decent picture of it.
I figured out that you could do the brake pads like this when i was building my Maserati, but later, I found out that Ryan Link did that on his Enzo Ferrari. So I guess I'll have to give him the credits.
He took some good pictures like this one...
...But my brother is kind of weird so he takes crazy pictures...
Opening Parts
The doors can open. The doors open on two hinges: an axle and a regular hinge element.
The trunk can open.
The trunk can only carry two minifigure size bags.
The engine cover can open.
The 6 liter, V12 engine that punches out 650 HP rockets this car up to a top speed of 218 MPH.
Everything is open.
The interior.
The bird's eye view of the supercar.
The car without the doors and the trunk lid...
...And now also without the engine cover, the side panels, and the wheels.
A group shot with all the pieces off.
My Ferraris.
UPDATE:
After a while, I found some problems with the 1st version, so I modified it a bit. You can view the pictures in the slide show individually here.

The rear.

I am still not 100% pleased with it, so I'm planning on building another Enzo from scratch in the future.

My brother: taking the pictures that are in the "Details" section.
Ryan Link: brake pads, trunk lid, rear view mirror, and some parts of the doors.
Firas Abu-Jaber: brake pads
Last but not least, I would like to thank Paul Janssen because I would not have been able to finish the Enzo Ferrari without his help. You can visit his Bricklink store here.

oh i just don't like the design of those doors, they would brake to easily and to hold them i had to make those big bumps, plus i like the way your doors look when open better.
Oh, okay. I understand.

Hey LB JR, when you are done with you MO entree can you get to work with those doors?
And if you rather email it then post another creation here is my email: legonoitallmocs@gmail.com
Thanks!
Sorry about not getting back to you sooner. Haha I'm actually editing the pictures for my MO entry right now so I can post it. I will send you an email hopefully by Sunday.

Very nicely shaped and designed. I think you did a great job of modeling the front, as that is a very distinctive feature of the Enzo. It was immediately recognizable.

i was wondering, is it still together?
No, it has been dismantled for well over a year.

hey can you take a look at my lambo Gallardo? btw can you teach me how to make those butterfly doors, do you think it can be done with 1 stud wide doors?
I can show you how to build it, but why do you need to know? I saw that you've already made an Enzo with opening butterfly doors. And yes, it should work.

Amazing creation! So it would be nice if you could comment on this. Please give a constructive criticism, if possible. Thanks,

3. :And on one other creation of your choice. But please don't comment on a figure.
Okay, I don't comment on creations like that because cars aren't my most favourite thing on earth but I just had to comment on this. This is brilliant. I don't know how you can achieve creations with such quality! Really like it!

I have a challenge for you, try to build a 2011 dodge charger!
Maybe eventually (when it's in 2051. Hahaha). I personally hate pretty much all American cars, and I've got two other cars that I'll eventually build, hopefully by July, so don't expect it soon, if ever. ;)

... in reply to your comment. Hi Mr. Jealous Lego Builder Junior ;). Well, I am jealous of your skills, especially at this scale. Cant wait to see your Zonda. That was on my to do list too, but Firas' version was so good i put it off. I am assuming you have received your wheels from BL? Oh, There is no need to 'double' rate my creations (unless you really want to) but please feel free to comment:) I really enjoy our chats. As you know we joined at the same time and it is great to see our creations improve everytime. The only way is up. Unless we are using snot hahaha :).
Yes, I got the wheels a while back. I'm using them to build an F1 car.

My top five favorite car's are the Nissan Coupe 370Z, Koenigsegg CCX, Enzo Ferrari, Ferrari FXX, and the 2006 Dodge Viper Coupe. The detail and intricate features captured in this model, the Enzo Ferrari, is one of the best designs I have seen in lego in a while.

Cool I was the first to comment on this and now I get to comment again :). Thanks for the things you said about my mocs. but this is far better than i could do at this scale. I also have Lego's version which is no way near as good as this. I have responded to your comment on my page. Can't wait to see your latest - A Porsche right?

Wow! At first when you said "look at my Enzo" I thought it would be a 10 year old kid showing off his ugly cars and his clone mods painted with a hedgehog, but no, this is awesome!
Keep on the great work, 5/5!

Wow, here is another, great car! :D Wonderful work, with extravigant details, you are really tallented! :D
I like it. especial when the door is open. I have questions: why the engine is at the bank and the trunk is at the front? and why the trunk is so small?
And here it is! I'm sorry I couldn't take a look at this sooner, it's fantastic! I know you've been working on it for months, and it paid off. Everything looks great, just like the real car; you clearly know the Enzo well. A definite improvement in your building skills, and a beautiful replica of a great car. Nicely done!

AWESOME, thanks for telling me about this! It's stuff like this that makes me think LEGO should try harder at designing their sets. Compared to the 1:17 scale Enzo they were selling a few years ago, this is better in every way. Everything opens, and you actually made the headlights out of real bricks! (I HATE IT when LEGO uses stickers for those) Just a superb creation, easily worth 5/5.
Yeah. I actually used mainly the Enzo set to build this. I think part of the reason why Lego doesn't make better sets is because their target is kids, and these types of MOCs are to hard for most kids to follow instructions. Like the Gallardo set has TONS of stickers.

Fantastic, how old are you if you dont mind me asking, because your building skills are amazing!
I'm seven. Okay, I know that you know that I'm not that age. If you want to know how old I am, follow these instructions: 1. Multipy 38765 by 45. 2. Divide by 10,000,864,087.65 3. Do step 1 and 2,856,077 times 4. Multiply by 3 4. then divide by 1.08657896469005. Just kidding. Sorry, I can't tell people how old I am.
Haha the minifig bags are my favourite part, they fit really well. That aside this is a really neat recreation of the Enzo, definately your best...so far :)
Woah, IMO this is your best model yet! You've greatly improved your own skills and made this model even better. I'm really looking forward to your next creation. Judging by this one, the next one should be awesome! 5/5 keep up the fantastic work :D
