PICS: Ferrari unveils FXX Millechili 2200lb Baby Ferrari

by info@[EMAIL PROTECTED] (JLA) Jun 21, 2007 at 01:54 PM

The car has an official name (FXX Millechili) and is not a drivable
concept. It’s made of largely cardboard and plastic (see the paper
wheels). The design concept seems to take away the worst of the Enzo
(its long front and rear overhangs) while retaining the stuff some
people like (it can hold a V-8 or V-12!!).

Ferrari insiders have called this the “1000 kilo” car, while the
Ferrari media site refers to it in the more Italian translation of
“FXX Millechili.” However you call it, 1000 kg translates into a very
desirable 2207 lb. Power could be rated as high as 660 horsepower from
the Enzo’s V-12. The company’s new goal of achieving efficiency in
performance is at the core of this concept’s mission. Making
everything lighter and stronger has always been a top priority in
racing and it appears that Ferrari is getting serious about applying
that to its production cars in ways anyone has ever seen before.

This car is much smaller. Its wheelbase is 93.7 inches versus the
Enzo’s 104.3 inches. The distance from the top of the wind****eld to
the tip of the nose is much shorter, too (43.3 inches versus the
bigger car’s 49.1 inches) giving it a much shorter front overhang.
Out back, the rear overhang has been lopped off.
