    UAE driver, that car is, most likely, not the 399th Enzo... Every Enzo made has that same plaque that reads "LIMITED PRODUCTION 399"...

    And i have a suspicion on the possible owner... Since the car has plates from Macerata (MC), EN 399 ZO (custom plates), and there's a very close friend of Montezemolo who's from that city...

    That seems odd. You would think they would number them accordingly.

    No its 399. Ferrari has a theory " Always make 1 less than u think u can sell"
    ferrari thinks she can sell 400 so they made 399

    Well there is a place in dubai called Dubai Autodrome. They do hold some races. from time to time. They also hold days for certain types of cars for example " porsche day" where only porches get to ride or " Ferrari day" and so on. There are also "open days" which any car can go for a drive. open days r the most often. There is also another place but not in dubai its in a city next to it, 30-40 mins away which hold drag races. its called the Emirates Racing club. Some of the pics r avaliable on the " Supercars in dubai" Forum. I will post some pics of the dubai autodrome today in the supercars in dubai forum so if u wana check that out.
    Cheers,

    Correct.

    I understand that the 400th Enzo was made for the Pope and he donated it to the large Ferrari auction held at Maranello last year, all proceeds going to Tsunami victims.

    I was told that they didn't do this because when they released the 550 Barchetta, which was individually numbered, people would specifically request a certain number. Kind of like Michael Jordan requesting number 23, not saying that MJ did that. My source told me that Ferrari didn't want to run into that problem again.

    Just for a heads up ...
    #399 is going to be auctioned off to the highest bidder for charity on Sept 15th in Los Angeles.
