I remember this day very well, I had met with a car spotting friend who drove up from Spain (we were both very active members on a now defunct car forum), I was showing him around Monaco and it was at the end of the day, we were walking back to his car and saw a crowd of people, so of course we went to investigate and found this beauty parked up! Waited for the fuss to die down a bit and got our photos - I even have a photo of me taking a photo of this car

Doesn't get much better than that, especially with the spotting scene being relatively lowkey in 2008. Super special spot, wonder if this car still exists on RSM plates.
Luckily Monaco was still doing it's thing for super cars even in 2008 On that trip I spotted 3 Carrera GT, an Alfa Romeo 8C and my first Koenigsegg - all of which made me very happy! At the rate that hypercars move around I wouldn't be surprised if it is sitting hidden in some other territory gathering dust by now Pretty sure it is one of the last 10 Enzos to roll off the production line with the body coloured rear splitter if my memory is correct, making it that little bit more special.
Apparently after I took the photos it was repainted in Pearl White and Rosso Fuoco (allegedly not wrapped) and wore the same plate for all colours. The last info I can find on the car was 2011, but you can buy models of the car in both red and white! I saw one of these models myself in Abu Dhabi in 2011 and I assumed it was a different car with the same plate, but the information suggests it was the same. Here's my photos I took of the model:
No way, what a world we live in seeing a model car of a car you actually spotted on a different continent. Super cool! I got to admit that both pearl white and rosso fuoco are fantastic colors, the owner certainly had taste.
