This is the Gemballa-tuned Ferrari Enzo - dubbed the MIG-U1. The German tuner, famous for modifying BMWs, has decided to throw caution to the wind and modify one of the world's most exotic and rare supercars ever built - just 399 examples of the Ferrari Enzo existed. A few of those have been written off...
The MIG-U1 looks scarily like a Maserati MC12, itself based on the Enzo, and gets a dramatically styled bodykit, plus an enormous rear wing and tailpipes which sit on top of each other rather than side-by-side.
The interior has also been given a thorough going over, with red Alcantara (a lot of it) in a specially stitched pattern, an LCD on top of the dash and a new audio system.
No word on performance, but the standard Enzo sports a 6-litre V12 producing 650bhp, which is good for a 3.3s 0-62mph time and a top speed of 219mph.
Mind you, just last year Edo Competition fiddled with a Ferrari Enzo to produce 700bhp and gave their modded version a 230mph top speed. So it seems blasphemy isn't beyond the tuning fraternity...
It looks distinctive, but we're not sure Gemballa have got this one right. However, it could have been a helluva lot worse - remember the Gemballa-tuned Porsche Cayenne we reported on in April last year?
