I would much rather have a C-GT (or an F40) and row my own gears. The Enzo does nothing for me.
How was it driving the Enzo?

That's fine, but the brake and accel pedal look to be attached with that smooth silver pedal.


In the bottom left the pedals sure look attached. It's odd looking whatever is going on.
It's not that odd. There are several cars that have the pedals mounted to the floor. Check out the footwell of the Enzo. Sorry if the pic is too big, but if you look closely, you can see that the pedals are mounted to the floor like in the Lexus.




And I am personally not a big fan of the styling, nor am I a fan of any car with only two pedals, but I am definitely looking forward to driving it and hearing what it sounds like at 9k

Sorry- I know that's not the best pic, but there isn't anything "connecting" the brake and accel, per se. The pedals are mounted to the floor of the footwell, so what you see in the Lexus is not something that connects the pedals together- it is the point at which they are connected to the car. I'm sure that sounds very confusing, but if you could see a better picture of the footwell, it would be very obvious. Sorry I couldn't find a better pic to illustrate my point.

When I grow up, I wanna be just like you

Nice rides. Are they really more fun than the Enzo because of the manual transmission? I've never had the chance to try a SMG-type box.
