The Berlinetta Boxer thread

[Chiefly]

Enzo enters the Mid-engined Supercar market with the beautiful Berlinetta Boxer:

- Formula 1 derived Flat 12 engine
- Pininfarina design
- 188 MPH
- The Daytona successor
- Le Mans pedigree

And prices for the best 512BBi have now moved into the 200k+ GBP bracket.

Finally the Boxer is being talked about and acknowledged for the tremendous car it is, bravo!

Would be good to hear from owners of a BB, must be some out there in the Pistonheads world?

These were bedroom wall fodder for my generation (40ish). I reckon the values will keep on climbing. Fabulous cars...

Believe so as well.

Also, what else is there in the 200k-300k GBP bracket with the same sort of credentials? Other cars have already disappeared out of reach.



The BB is also the last of the Enzo era cars with hand-beaten body panels.

oh, and the matter of the engine:

That might be buried on youtube somewhere!

According to their Tweeter feed, today a BB at Foskers sold for a record £325,000.

For those that have a BB, hang on to it!

Haven't been able to stop yet but looks to be a beautiful BB in HR Owen on Brompton Road.
Anyone looked at it/know what they're asking?

Don't know what they are asking for but it's a beaut

The 512BB makes 285k GBP including buyer's premium.

Question is will the owner keep it as is or put their hand in some deep pockets to recommission it?

Thank you, that's going to be a great one to watch!
