Crazy to see AB plates on these cars.

No words describe it. Beautiful.

Sweet Vid!

[phrozen]

Thats pretty sweet, I wonder if he will have any other projects on the go in the near future, I see his cars everywhere.

[VWEvo]

Now thats baller!!!

[Redlyne_mr2]

collar open wide, gold chains, greased up to win... who puts their hp rating on their license plate?.. amazing car but everything about him including that vid is sooo lame.

[dj_rice]

ZR Autos Zahir ...why wasnt I surprised but nice car nonetheless

[jersturbo]

Zahir shouldn't be to surprised, the Ferrari F430 Scuderia is 'just about' as quick around the track as the Enzo in OEM form...

the Enzo is not exactly light comared to the 430 Scuderia...so give it an even better power-to-weight ratio than the Enzo, and the result shouldn't surprise...

...I'd love to see Ferrari come out with a limited edition version of the Enzo, being a Scuderia version, with all the FXX goodies (800 hp!) but road set-up instead of track only (as the FXX are)...and yet gone through to lighten the weight a lot! :burnout:

[sputnik]

What the hell is Zahir wearing?

Looks like one of my grandmothers tablecloths made into a shirt.

Zahir's 430 isn't a 430 scuderia though :dunno:

[lewdvig]

What does Zahir do? Is it just the car shop, or is he a Calgary oil millionaire like so many others?

How did he make his money? I would need to have many millions in the bank before I would ever throw down a mil on a Ferrari. That is like 3000 XBox 360's - almost as many as I have bought this last year. :nut:

But it is fun watching other folks enjoy their cars.

I only first heard of him a few years ago when he got his Enzo. You have to be tight with Ferrari to get one, right?

He owns ZR Auto, the high end/exotic car dealership

www.zrauto.ca

And I think he also owns Pawnshop Superstore?...and a couple other businesses along 17th Ave...thats from what people have told me

[lewdvig]

Cool. Nice to see folks making some money that is not pumped out of the ground.

[Eclipse_Spyder]

that was insane

:rofl: Brilliant.

[Ymerej47]

That is true. You have to be known as a "True Ferrari Enthusiast" with Ferrari becuz they won't sell a car of that calibre to some millionaire and watch him abuse it, smash it into walls etc etc.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=V4dqYKbnPCQ theres a good example...

Indirectly his money is oil money. I'm sure the majority of his business is from oil money.


As for the vid, it doesn't look to be much faster than an Enzo after all that work. What a waste of money...

Anyone can walk into a Ferrari dealership that has a used Enzo and buy it. Those regulations that Ferrari put up were only if you wanted to buy an Enzo straight from the factory.

I was curious too... check out this article in the sun I found...

[lewdvig]

Yeah, the Gizmodo guy that smashed his Enzo was such an idiot. His company failed so badly, that might be the only Enzo he ever gets.

Closed roads and tracks are the only places people should go supercar fast IMO.

[rmk]

The Gizmodo guy owned two Enzos. Red and Black.

Well, if I am ever lucky enough to be able to afford one, I'll buy my exotic from ZR. Very cool to have this kind of business in Calgary.

Not to mention that 700 BHP gas guzzlers are good for the local economy.

I think he just hyped Gizmodo enough to buy the Enzos and then let it tank. Haha! Why didn't I think of that?

There is a local guy in town who just bought two Enzos, both red. One to drive and the other to collect.

[Canmorite]

That car is unbelievably fast. Balls out in an SLR on the Race City straight away, that 430 was pulling away from us. It sounds incredible, too.

EDIT: Interior is fantastic as well.

[treg50]

Amazing F430 :love:

werd... but what i wouldnt give to have any one of his cars...

whats nice about him is he doesnt just let his cars sit in a garage somewhere... he takes them to the track and lets them rip... the way they are meant to be driven.

[S13_Ryan]

That is one lucky guy. he lives on the lake in McKenzie. Some of the cars out on his driveway leave me absolutely speechless. The 430 being one of them.

Good video.
