I think that should be "Enzo" Ferrari, not "Enzi".
I also found the claim that the '62 Impala SS 409 could do 0-60 in 4
seconds pretty much unbelievable. Test results here
<http://roadtests.tripod.com/> from contemporary car mags of the day
show times of 6.3 and 7.3 seconds. The fastest 62 car listed there is
the Pontiac Catalina at 5.4 seconds. I suspect even that one might be a
little bit stretched.
My '64 XKE with 265 horsepower could do 0-60 in 6 seconds but it only
weighed about 2600 lbs. The '62 Impala weighed about 3900 lbs. It did
produce a lot of horsepower but it also had 1962 tires. 4.0 seconds...
not gonna happen.
