After buying my TT for the DTM, I've gotten back up to around a mill and I said "Lets buy a car from the NCD!" So I have it down to the F1 and the Enzo, or are there better cars to spend a mill on? And I know there are tunes for both, (RKM's Enzo, and some other person's F1) What tune is better?
 
Yeah, ask anyone. I'd say like 8 out of 10 people prefer the McLaren F1 over the Ferrari Enzo. And I don't really mess with tuning except for gear ratios, downforce, etc. For a good tune setup you'd go to the tuning forums.
 
The McLaren F1 is faster, has more pedigree, better looking. What more do you need to know? PM me if you want me to do a test between them both and give you the times.

Now I'm facepalming.

Above, in my link, I have my own comparo. The Enzo won. But that's irrelevant, as the F1 is faster. How much? By 10 seconds on the Nurburgring 24H. I don't mean to be an ass, but it's sitting right there.

onearmbandit, I guess it is more coincidental. Whatever.

The Lambo SV is a great car but if your after either the Enzo or F1 then i'd go F1

The Enzo is a good car (Im a Ferrari fanboy) but even with the RKM tune its still not that great to drive imo, RKM also have a F1 tune which altho doesn't increase the bhp by a great deal its a fantastic tune (see my review of it Here, post 1556
 
I prefer the F1. Just not crazy about the looks of the Enzo.

Plus, the F1 was the car that got me interested in cars as a kid. :)

Well maybe you should keep your hands on your wheel or pad and do more tests.

My Top Gear test track times for the 2 cars. Both stock with an oil change.

Mclaren F1 Road '94 (657 Bhp) - 1:09.404

Ferrari Enzo 02' (685 Bhp) - 1:10.535

I did 2 actually in that test but kept one out due to it being irrelevant. It was also a personal course, so the times would have been a bit stupid to put up.
