    Ok guys. Please refrain from name calling. I agree with ClassicGuy (No relation to ClassicFerrari :D ) Lets keep this clean and not assume anything.

    Thanks,

    Ouch and double ouch!!! :(

    As long as no one was hurt...all is relatively well.

    Cars can be fixed.
    Egos can be stroked and mended.
    Lost lives can't be undone.

    So was the water level shallow or does an Enzo have material properties in it's construction that make it more bouyant than most cars ?

    Absolutely....The monocoque and chassis is hollow carbon fibre. It acts like the hull of a boat.

    Lucas......

    OK........that makes sense.........the CF bits I knew about, but the hollow construction/monocoque explains the partial flotation evidenced in the photos, as opposed to it being totally underwater like your father's Oldsmobile would have been. Boat hull was a good explanation.............glad no one was hurt.
