A:These photos are so old… that they appear to have been snapped on film.

 

Fujifilm 35-mm film!

My, how the times are moving fast.

But even though the original photos have aged, the car is as gracefully brutal as it was when Tiff Needell first took it around a few hot laps of the Fiorano circuit. Here he is, in fact.

Remember this exact car? The one with the Ferrari partner/supplier stickers on the side air ducts?

One for old souls, perhaps. Or at least people who have been devouring car magazines since the 2000s — which is all of us, I bet.

It is great to see the Enzo in its launch prime. Even Michael Schumacher was on hand to bless the gifted hypercar. A treat to see them both in peak form.

But while we will all get so old that 35-mm film will be something we tell out grandchildren about nostalgically — my hunch is that the 2003 Enzo Ferrari will stay razor-sharp in its appeal for decades to come.
