With only 399 Enzo’s originally produced, plus the special one-off for Pope John Paul II, it’s amazing how many we see cropping up all over the place. This time round we have an Enzo that was donated by a private owner to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, to be auctioned off to raise funds for children with cancer and other serious illnesses. The auction, which will take place on September 15th in Beverly Hills during the fourth annual Runway For Life fashion parade, marks the second time an Enzo is being auctioned for charity. Another Enzo was previously auctioned by the before mentioned Pope to raise funds for tsunami relief. Though bidding will start at $875,000, the estimated price is well over a million dollars.
Celebrities who are expected to attend the event include Cindy Crawford, Daisy Fuentes, Patricia Heaton, Jenny McCarthy and Anna Kournikova amongst others. The donated Enzo, which is a 2003 US spec delivered model has been looked after by a Ferrari workshop for its previous owner and comes complete with the exclusive Enzo luggage set. Other features of the car include the 650hp V12, carbon ceramic brakes and the carbon fiber body.
In other news, if you’re interested in buying an Enzo but can’t make it to the auction, there’s one being sold on eBay UK here.
